Ricochet is one of the most athletically-gifted performers on the WWE roster. The One and Only showcased his incredible athleticism when he effortlessly landed a flip outside the ring this week on RAW. Fans might recall the origins of the insane dive from a couple of years ago on NXT.
Ricochet was involved in a feud with former WWE star Velveteen Dream during their NXT days. One of their promo segments led the Human Highlight Reel to land an impressive flip to the outside. The athleticism was enough to shut Dream up.

A former WWE writer just went after JBL for his comments HERE
The two stars squared off against each other in singles competition at WWE NXT TakeOver: Chicago II on June 16, 2018. The former NXT North American Champion performed a 630º senton to score a win on his opponent.
The premium live event marked the final singles match between the two stars. They would meet each other in multi-man matches on NXT before Ricochet and Aleister Black’s eventual move to the main roster in 2019.
It is worth mentioning that both Black and Velveteen are no longer associated with WWE. Black is currently signed to AEW, where he performs under the ring name Malakai Black and is currently a Trios Tag Team Champion alongside his House of Black stablemates. Dream, on the other hand, was released from his WWE contract on May 20, 2021, under controversial circumstances.
