WWE has a history of focusing on characters developed in house, including rebranding talents with big reputations from outside the company. Ricochet is one of those talents who got to hold onto a gimmick he had used in smaller promotions, but it wasn’t the only character he had played on less prominent stages. In Lucha Underground, he spent a period of time as the (masked) face of the company, Prince Puma.

It’s debatable whether there’s value in another masked man in WWE, or if Puma would inherently do better than the Ricochet character. However, after the high flyer’s tepid beginnings on the main roster, Prince Puma does feel as though he carries a bit more fire and gravitas, and thus greater potential to deliver on the performer’s unique gifts at the highest level.

Given Lucha Underground’s own protective tendencies over its intellectual property, this character change probably isn’t on the cards. Seeing Ricochet work under a hood again could, nonetheless, be interesting.
