"Samantha created this monster" - Fans stunned as Ricochet stabs top AEW star on live TV, completing his cold-blooded gimmick change

Former WWE Intercontinental Champion Ricochet stabbed a former AEW World Champion in the head with a scissor on last night's Dynamite: Fight for the Fallen. Fans on the internet have now reacted to the erstwhile Prince Puma's character change, also mentioning his fiancée, Samantha Irvin.

Last night, Swerve Strickland competed in a Three-way Match against Jay White and Roderick Strong for the number one spot in next week's Casino Gauntlet Match. However, Ricochet interfered and halted Swerve's chances.

The former WWE Intercontinental Champion stabbed Strickland's face with a scissor, making The Realest bleed a lot. He also attacked Prince Nana with a steel chair and showcased his psychotic side by sitting in the ring while Swerve was lying down on the floor. The animosity between Swerve and Ricochet has been building up for the past few weeks.

Meanwhile, the new psychopathic heel character of The Future of Flight has been garnering a lot of reactions on social media. Fans on X (FKA Twitter) praised the segment, with one fan also mentioning the erstwhile Prince Puma's fiancée, Samantha Irvin, claiming she created this monster.

Check out some of the reactions below:

Ricochet failed to win the AEW Continental Classic 2024

The Highlight of The Night participated in this year's AEW Continental Classic tournament in the Gold League. With three wins, one defeat, and a draw, The One And Only topped the league and reached the semifinals.

At Worlds End 2024, The Future of Flight squared off with Kazuchika Okada in the semifinals but failed to defeat The Rainmaker.

Following his loss, Swerve Strickland embarrassed the former WWE Superstar, as The Realest instructed the crowd to throw multiple toilet tissue rolls at the 36-year-old. This seemingly triggered what went down on Dynamite: Fight for the Fallen.

Only time will tell what Tony Khan has in store for The One And Only in the coming weeks.
