Ricochet has defended “finisher spam” after WWE Hall of Famer Booker T and Brad Gilmore criticized using excessive finishers in modern wrestling.
Ricochet joked about Dragon Ball Z and argued that multiple finishers can add suspense, since fans in some promotions wait for that one move to finish matches, while varied finishes keep them guessing. He tweeted,
“Say you’ve never watched DragonBall Z without saying you’ve never watched DragonBall Z. 👑”
“I disagree. It gives more suspense. Because in other promotions we KNOW the match isnt gonna end until someone hits their ONLY move that ends the match. So everyone seems to be just sitting and waiting until that one move, knowing the match isn’ t gonna end until that happens.”
Thekla has doubled down on her harsh comments about STARDOM after defiling its logo on AEW Dynamite.
During a recent appearance on Highspots’ Virtual Gimmick Table, Thekla clarified that while she heard AEW is perhaps apologizing to STARDOM, she doesn’t regret her words and is able to fight anyone who talks back.
The AEW Women’s World Champion said,
“Well, I mean, they’re all dumb ******* obviously, and I feel I’m biting the hand that used to feed me also. But at the identical time, it’s like, yeah, yeah, **** that. They know. I’ve told it straight to their face that I don’t like a variety of the **** they achieve this, Taro Okada, he’s still gonna get his beating sooner or ******* later. Probably sooner since we’ve got Forbidden Door coming up… This time, I can have ****** it up a bit bit because all of Japan is tweeting about me. I just checked out a message and I saw that AEW is perhaps apologizing to STARDOM for the things I done did but, **** em. I’m gonna go over there and kick each person’s ass who dares to speak **** back at me…”
