Ricochet is a future main event star.
WWE fans have rightfully been frustrated by how NXT stars are portrayed when they join the main roster. Ricochet is one of the most talented wrestlers in the world and has only had a few opportunities to show his skill set since joining Raw. That changed on Sunday night.
Samoa Joe and Ricochet had the match of the night at Stomping Grounds. It was a wonderful contrast of styles. You had the power moves of Samoa Joe versus the aerial offense of Ricochet. It led to some wonderful counters throughout the match.
It was a little surprising to see Samoa Joe lose his title again so quickly but it certainly shows what the WWE values going forward. Ricochet won his first singles title in his first attempt. Here's to hoping for many more great moments for Ricochet going forward.
