Ricochet Open To NXT Return, Jokes He's Better Than Will Ospreay At 'Basically..

[Liz]

Ricochet was one of the top stars on the NXT brand when he signed with WWE in 2018. He is a former NXT North American Champion and NXT Tag Team Champion alongside Aleister Black (Malakai Black in AEW).

Ricochet moved up to the main roster in February 2019 and has found success as a former WWE United States Champion and reigning WWE Intercontinental Champion.

Speaking answering frequently Googled questions with Cultaholic, Ricochet was asked about possibly returning to NXT.

AJ (Styles) went back, Nattie is down there now. All these guys are going back down there and it seems like they are having a great time. Me and Carmelo (Hayes) had a thing going. If Carmelo wants the heat, he can have it. Whoever it is, I would love to go down there, that's always been a home of mine. Anytime," he said.

Hayes is the reigning NXT North American Champion.

Before Ricochet signed with WWE, he gained notoriety for his matches with Will Ospreay, which were frequently GIF'd and posted online.

Asked what he does better that Ospreay, Ricochet replied with a laugh, "Basically at everything." When asked what Ospreay does better than him, Ricochet said, "Being Will Ospreay. That's it's own specific thing. If you ever met him, you'd be like, 'Yeah, I know exactly what you mean.' Will Ospreay is great."

Ospreay and Ricochet last wrestled in 2017. Ospreay has found success of his own since then, winning the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship among other titles and accolades.

Ricochet is coming off a successful Intercontinental Title defense against Shanky on WWE SmackDown. If you missed anything from WWE SmackDown, check out Fightful's full report on the show by clicking here.
