AEW star Bobby Lashley would love to see former WWE Superstar Ricochet in The Hurt Syndicate. The Almighty recently joined All Elite Wrestling.

The Hurt Syndicate is open for business in AEW and MVP is handing out his business cards to talents like Ricochet, Lio Rush, and others. Bobby Lashley has been open about recruiting some major stars to his faction. The Almighty is set to face Swerve Strickland at Full Gear on November 23.

Speaking on The Lame Guys podcast, Bobby Lashley heaped praise on Ricochet and his in-ring ability. Lashley believes that The One and Only could be a great addition to The Hurt Syndicate.

“We’re going to put an ad on Indeed, and we’re going to let people… I don’t know, I love Ricochet. I think everybody loves Ricochet. If you see that guy in the ring, he’s just ridiculous. I think Ricochet would be a great option. I don’t know if he’s going to be that person, though, because there’s another one over there,” he said. [H/T: WrestleZone]

AEW star Bobby Lashley believes Ricochet falls under the same category as him

In the same episode of the podcast, Bobby Lashley noted how the fans still saw him as a babyface when he was a heel. This is where a manager like MVP helped with his heel transition.

He further said that Ricochet also falls in the same category and could do great after being paired with a heel manager like MVP. Lashley also likened it to Roman Reigns and Paul Heyman's pairing in WWE.

“What’s cool about Ricochet is he falls into the same category I did. Like, I was such a babyface, and people still see me as a babyface. But when I was with The Hurt Business, and I linked up with MVP, people were like, ‘Alright, he’s heel.’ And it helped me. Having a heel manager kind of helps even a babyface make that switch. Roman and Paul? It’s the same thing across the board,” he said. [H/T:WrestleZone]

We will have to wait and see who joins up with The Hurt Syndicate in AEW as its newest member. Will it be Ricochet or someone else?
