Ricochet, the high-flying sensation in All Elite Wrestling (AEW), has been on a long journey to championship gold in the company. Last month, he achieved his goal by winning his first singles title in AEW. Since then, he has successfully defended his belt against formidable opponents, showcasing his skills as a top-tier competitor.
Recently, AEW introduced a new championship belt, the AEW National Championship. Ricochet emerged victorious in a Casino Gauntlet Match at Full Gear 2025 to become the inaugural holder of the title. His path to glory continued as he defended his championship in other promotions, making history as the first AEW champion to do so.
In a groundbreaking move, Ricochet defended his title at ROH Final Battle 2025 against Dalton Castle and later against Ace Austin on Saturday Night Collision. Now, he is set to face a new challenger, Nino Bryant, at RevPro Uprising on December 14 in Cardiff, Wales. This upcoming match has generated significant buzz in the wrestling community, with fans eager to see if Bryant can pull off an upset against the dominant champion.
Despite his success in the ring, Ricochet has also made waves outside of it with his character work. As a heel, he has engaged with fans and rivals on social media, often taunting established legends in the industry. Recently, he took a shot at Rey Mysterio, proclaiming the WWE legend’s inferiority in a controversial tweet.
As Ricochet continues to make waves in AEW and beyond, fans are eagerly anticipating his next move in the promotion. With his athleticism, charisma, and in-ring prowess, he has solidified himself as a top contender in the world of professional wrestling. Stay tuned to see what the future holds for the AEW National Champion as he navigates the competitive landscape of the industry.
