Very like Kendrick Lamar’s popular 2017 single, it seems that Ricochet is sitting down and being humble.
For months, the AEW star has conveyed a combination of arrogance and aggression across social media and tv, a lot in order that AEW CEO Tony Khan has labeled him as one among the least-liked talents in the corporate locker room. In recent days, nevertheless, Ricochet has seemingly turned a brand new leaf.
“I have been doing a little reflecting and excited about loads of stuff. And, you all are right. I’m not the most effective promo within the business,” Ricochet wrote on X (formerly Twitter). “And perhaps [Speedball Mike Bailey] and [Kenny Omega] do have a probability of winning at #AEWDynasty.”

Upon further inspection of Ricochet’s X post, commenters have painted a red circle around its date of publishing — April 1, 2025, also generally known as April Fools’ Day. With this in mind, Ricochet’s abrupt transformation is greater than likely a joke. In any case, his participation in AEW Dynasty comes after he pinned Mark Davis using illegal rope leverage. Meanwhile, “Speedball” Mike Bailey cleanly rolled up Davis at the identical time to secure his own spot on the pay-per-view card.
Consequently of their simultaneous covers on Davis, Ricochet and Bailey will each challenge Kenny Omega for the AEW International Championship. Dynasty will mark Ricochet’s fourth attempt at capturing the title, having previously lost to former holder Konosuke Takeshita and sustaining a no contest ruling when facing Will Ospreay in October. Bailey heads into Dynasty searching for his first championship in AEW since debuting for the promotion last month.
