If WWE keeps Ricochet on the main roster, sending him to SmackDown may be the best option. The Blue Brand would be a better playground for the high-flyer. After all, it was initially touted as "The Land of Opportunity" and has seen the rise of several young stars.
Compared to RAW, SmackDown has created younger stars and given them a greater spotlight.

Cesaro finally gained a one-on-one World Championship opportunity against Roman Reigns at WrestleMania Backlash. This may not have been possible on RAW, where there is a loaded roster.
Jey Uso was never thought of as a main-event caliber singles star. Yet, WWE allowed him to shine as a singles competitor last year. Uso impressed many backstage officials and owns victories over Daniel Bryan and Shinsuke Nakamura. Again, RAW wouldn't have provided Jey Uso with the same attention and focus that he needed to become a star.
The WWE Draft may be a little far away, but Ricochet would benefit greatly from a move to SmackDown. AJ Styles was traded to SmackDown in May last year, while Dolph Ziggler jumped to RAW later in June. Albeit unlikely, WWE could pull off something similar with the former US Champion.
Ricochet will receive more screen-time and attention on SmackDown. The opportunities that would open up are incredible.
Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, Sami Zayn, Apollo Crews, and Aleister Black are just some of the stars who could fight with the high-flyer on SmackDown.
