Ricochet has teased a number of matches in his AEW career, including one against Chris Jericho.
Arriving in All Elite Wrestling as a surprise entrant in the Casino Gauntlet match, the high-flyer is set for a multitude of first-time-ever matches with some of the biggest stars and the stars of the future. However, when speaking in a recent interview, the former WWE star noted that he never got the opportunity to face off with one of the most tenured members of the roster.
Appearing on The Masked Man Show, the recent signee discussed potential opponents and how he is looking at the wider picture:
“I’m thinking about the totality of everything. I’m thinking about the famous guys and the new up-and-comers and the guys in the middle. Literally all of it is a potential for me. Again, I feel like for me, I’ve already stamped my place in the history books as the man, kind of. I know it sounds weird. I think Ricochet’s gone a while without really talking about Ricochet, so it’s weird for me to say so. But I’ve been doing it for so long, I’ve had so many memories, I’ve had so many great accomplishments.
Especially for someone like me who grew up in Kentucky, who didn’t even think it would be possible to make a life of this, I’ve already accomplished way more than I ever would have imagined. So now it’s really just about getting that flame that’s inside of me that just needs to be ignited, and I think with that, it’s gonna come, the moments and the stories. So me and the Danielsons and the Swerves and the PACs, before it was Ospreay and Ricochet, it was PAC and Ricochet. We were the ones lighting up the internet.
Ricochet Teases Chris Jericho Showdown
Continuing, the high-flyer listed more opponents and pointed out that he had never crossed paths with the first-ever World Champion:
Then again the Kyle Fletchers, even the Private Party, both of them, Top Flight, both of them, Darby Allin, there’s so many guys, I could go on and on. Really guys that I have wrestled and haven’t. Chris Jericho, I’ve never been in there with Chris Jericho, that’s a guy. He’s the Learning Tree, maybe I’ll chop down that tree.
Jericho’s final match for WWE took place at The Greatest Royal Rumble in 2018. Ricochet was still in NXT at this point.
