Ricochet has mostly been a babyface in recent years, but he started a new chapter of his career when he joined AEW. He has teased feuding with AEW International Champion Will Ospreay, who has become one of the company’s top faces.

Speaking on The Babyfaces Podcast, Ricochet was asked whether he had considered going heel in AEW. He noted that he was not afraid to tell somebody to shut up and smack them in the mouth. But he also stated that everyone had their story, and maybe his story would be told differently later.

“I think…everybody just kind of is an extension of who they feel they are. So I feel like for me, for example, I’m not afraid to tell somebody to shut up and smack them in their mouth. But at the same time, I feel like there’s steps that we could take before we get there. So the good guy/bad guy, that’s all just within that person. I feel like there aren’t really good guys and bad guys. Is Thanos a bad guy? Some people don’t think so. Is Killmonger a bad guy? Some people don’t think so. So it depends, everyone’s got their story and how they tell it. People can resonate with that. So maybe one of these days, my story will be told differently than how I feel now. Maybe I will feel differently later. So who knows? But right now, I feel great, I feel good, and it’s hard to really get me down. It’s always been hard. In my real life, in my wrestling life, it’s hard to get me down. It’s hard to really get on my bad side. Sure, I will communicate with you, and we will talk about it, and we will fight if we need to. But I don’t know. I’ve always kind of been, if not for the fans and if not for the people, I wouldn’t be where I’m at. So I’m not afraid, like Will Ospreay or whomever it is, if we got a problem, we can squash it right now, however you need to squash it. So the good guy/bad guy, it’s just different. It’s all how you are in the moment, and I might feel differently later,” Ricochet said.
