Ricochet comments on the different styles in wrestling.
Braun Strowman made headlines after WWE Crown Jewel 2022 when he tweeted, then deleted, “Holy Hell @TheGiant Omos can you believe we got 47 and reminded the people that no worries one about all these floppy floppers. Giants and Monster > grocery flip bag at @kroger #AirportTest #SizeIsThePrize #SwoleIsTheGoal.”
Ricochet was one of his teammates to respond to the tweet, but later said he didn’t think much of Braun’s comments and that they were still friends. On television, they faced each other in the SmackDown World Championship and also teamed up.
Speaking to Stephanie Chase, Ricochet discussed his pairing with Braun.
“Braun is great. I’ve known Braun since I was in WWE. He’s always been great, even now, he’s coming out to help me with Imperium or Hit Row, and I helped him. That’s it. It’s especially great when you and someone like Braun Strowman are on the same page It’s always nice to have a monster in your pocket, just in case. Things are great. If he and I can start getting closer Let’s get together as a tag team, it could be dangerous,” he said.
When asked about the different styles of wrestling and how he dealt with coming into the company as more of a high flier, Ricochet responded by saying, “I think the internet talks more about it than the wrestlers do. The internet cares more about it than the wrestlers do. For the most part, everybody is backstage, they’re not just want to do something together and want to make artwork for you guys. I don’t think anybody’s really (about) anybody else’s style. If you hear it, it’s usually more of the internet than the locker room.”
Ricochet most recently defeated Barr Dolla in a Royal Rumble qualifying match on the January 6 episode of WWE SmackDown. Hit Row (Dolla, B-Fab and Ashante “Thee” Adonis) attacked him after the bout, but Braun made the save.
