WWE NXT star Ricochet recently did an interview with TV Insider to talk about several professional wrestling topics. He talked about working for WWE, the guidance he has received from some of the veterans working in the WWE Performance Center and getting to keep his “Ricochet” name in WWE. The highlights can be found below:
Working in WWE:
“WWE has been exciting since day one. Right now, it has been figuring out who I am going to be and what I’m going to be about. From the talent to the coaches to the medical staff to everyone in the locker room, it’s been amazing.”
Guidance he has received from veterans at the WWE Performance Center:
“They’ve all helped me a lot and shown me how to look at wrestling totally different, in the best way possible,” he said. “Just about the timing, having positioning. Top to-bottom, in the ring and out of the ring, I’m looking at it in a whole new space of mind. I think it’s for the better.”
Keeping his “Ricochet” name after joining WWE:
“It was cool because the last 15 years of my life has been about trying to build up a name. When I got to WWE, there was some rumblings about changing it. I was okay with that because it has worked in the past, and I had a few choices lined up. But when they said I was able to keep it, it meant the world to me because it was definitely a name I put my blood, sweat and tears in building. I built my own name. All the hard work built up to this.”
