Folks, hold onto your wrestling gear because the high-flying sensation Ricochet has officially found a new home—and it’s not just any home, it’s AEW! After weeks of speculation and a WWE contract that’s now in his rearview mirror (possibly still with some shattered glass from Bron Breakker’s parting gift), Ricochet has reportedly signed a multi-year deal with All Elite Wrestling. Yes, you read that right—Tony Khan’s roster just got a whole lot more acrobatic.
According to those ever-reliable insiders over at Fightful Select, Ricochet inked this deal with the kind of precision you’d expect from a man who can flip five times before you’ve even blinked. And it seems like AEW isn’t wasting any time getting him into the mix. The buzz is that Ricochet could make his grand debut at none other than AEW’s biggest event of the year—All In, happening at Wembley Stadium in London, England, on August 25. Now, the exact details of his appearance are still under wraps, but you can bet it’ll be as spectacular as one of his 630 splashes.
Ricochet’s move comes after he informed WWE officials back in June 2024 that he wouldn’t be sticking around. WWE, being WWE, promptly wrote him off TV in dramatic fashion—courtesy of Bron Breakker and a car windshield that didn’t stand a chance. By June 30, Ricochet had officially graduated to the WWE Alumni section, and the stage was set for his next big leap—straight into the arms of AEW.
In AEW, Ricochet will be joining a roster packed with both new and familiar faces. From WWE veterans like Mercedes Mone, Adam Cole, and Saraya to pre-WWE rivals like Will Ospreay and The Young Bucks, Ricochet’s dance card is already looking pretty full. With this star-studded lineup and his own jaw-dropping skills, Ricochet is poised to make a huge impact in AEW—starting with what could be a show-stealing appearance at All In.
