More on Ricochet to AEW (Patreon)

Ricochet is likely headed to AEW, and all signs point to talks being well underway.

In June, Fightful Select reported that Ricochet was finishing up with WWE and expected to join AEW. His contract was up at midnight on July 1, and he was contractually unable to appear on AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door as a result. On the Fightful Select discord Wednesday night, Sean Ross Sapp posted that Ricochet wasn't set for the show.

However, Ricochet is expected in the company soon, and there was some interesting movement on that. Ricochet's agent was backstage at AEW this week, and we're told had been leading the subsequent talks between the two sides. Ricochet's agent also represents a number of other talent across WWE and AEW.
