Ricochet made his AEW debut at All In. However, fans are underwhelmed by his first match in the company.
Ricochet is one of the best high flyers in the world of professional wrestling. For years, he has captivated audiences with his in-ring performances. This helped him sign with WWE in 2018 where he got to shine in NXT and on the main roster for a period of time.
However, the former Intercontinental Champion decided to leave the company once his contract expired and was written off WWE TV in June 2024. It was reported recently that he had signed with Tony Khan's promotion ahead of All In pay-per-view.
