Top Lucha Underground Star Says He Wants To Go To WWE
Ricochet has made quite a name for himself outside of WWE, but that doesn’t mean he’s satisfied with not being there.
Ricochet has also made another name for himself — that of Prince Puma in Lucha Underground. The always busy Ricochet also rooms with WWE Superstar Apollo Crews, and says he’s been told by many that the WWE experience is one he needs.
“Of course, I mean, I would love to. Even all the people that I know that have been there, they always tell me, ‘you’ve got to at least experience it once’. But they tell me ‘you’ve got to go there and experience it at least once – whether you like it or not, it’s up to you, but you’ve got to go there and you’ve got to experience it once,'” said Ricochet
Ricochet is locked up under contract to Lucha Underground until six months after his final episode airs. The high-flyer appears through season three, which kicks off in September. Still, Ricochet hasn’t ruled out going to the biggest wrestling company in the world.
“I would love to go there one day. Hopefully all my ducks get in line in order and I can make it happen, but, I mean, of course, I would love to, but right now, I’m still just kind of doing my thing, doing the New Japan thing, I still got the Lucha thing going on right now. But, of course, one day, I’d really, really, really enjoy to be there one day.” he said.
Ricochet had a tryout with the WWE in 2014, but was passed up.
