Ricochet (Trevor Mann) is planning to leave WWE once his contract expires this summer. Mike Johnson of PWInsider.com reports that Ricochet has given notice to WWE. Ricochet has been with WWE since 2018.
Powell’s POV: The move is surprising if only because Ricochet is engaged to WWE ring announcer Samantha Irvin. Given his acrobatic style, Ricochet would be an obvious fit in AEW, though only time will tell whether that’s where the 35 year-old will sign next.
I would much rather see him with TNA.
Call me crazy, but I suspect you would like to see nearly every potential free agent go to TNA over AEW. Honest question. Do you watch TNA? I don’t recall you chiming in on the product very often.
I actually like that idea though. He’d just be another guy lost in the shuffle in AEW. Big flashy moves that wow the audience. That’s pretty much his spot in WWE. Yeah, he’d get to have a lot more freedom to wrestle, but in TNA, he could easily be a top guy/highlight reel that could be heavily featured.
