During a recent appearance on the “Talk Is Jericho” podcast, Ricochet commented on WWE refusing to allow him to pick up a win over Bron Breakker prior to leaving the company.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On being written off TV: ?I think they were thinking at the time we?re gonna leave it open ended, that?s their thought process. I don?t think there was anything like, let?s send him out. I literally don?t think it was that. I think it was, let?s keep it open ended, because we were still kind of talking. Then, we just didn?t come to a decision so it just ended on that. I could?ve probably signed something and came back and something. I think that?s all they were doing, I don?t think it?s a malicious thing.?
On not beating Bron Breakker: ?Guys, I never won, for one. So if I won and left, it would be weird. Two, it?s like, he [Bron Breakker] just started on Raw, they?re trying to make him a big threat, they?re trying to make him do something that?s dastardly. That was Ricochet?s role to take the moves from the people, that was always Ricochet?s role. It doesn?t matter if it was Braun or Drew or whoever, you know what I mean? Bronson Reed, Shinsuke, to take their move. I?m gonna take their move. It is what it is, it was a blessing and a curse, I blame myself.?
Will Ospreay also took to Twitter on Saturday to recall the inspiration he took from a match between Ricochet and PAC in 2011 for Dragon Gate. He wrote,
?I remember when I first started training going down the Resistance Gallery for LSLL. Showing this to my trainers Greg & Garry and saying ?this is how I wanna wrestle?. It couldn?t be more than 2 years after showing them this I was wrestling ricochet in Sittingbourne.?
