Adam Cole discusses Ricochet's character transformation in All Elite Wrestling.
Adam Cole and Ricochet have history, with the two meeting several times in NXT, including a highlight reel match at NXT TakeOver Brooklyn 4 in 2018. However, since signing with AEW, Ricochet has expanded his character work, becoming one of the top heels in All Elite Wrestling.
While speaking to Comicbook in a recent interview, Cole was asked about Ricochet's run in AEW so far, with Cole having lots of praise for Ricochet, despite being a 'good guy'.
"Unbelievable. I mean, again, when you look at Ricochet, anyone who's seen Ricochet wrestle, he's maybe the best athlete I've ever seen. Just like an absolute freak of nature. We jokingly in the locker room, we call him an alien. He's not even a real person. He's not even a human being. The things he can do is just absolutely unbelievable. So again, clearly one of the best, one of the most athletically gifted guys in the entire world. But getting to see this different side of Ricochet has been so much fun because he's showing the world what he can bring to the table. Maybe people thought, oh, okay, cool. He can do all these really, really cool athletic things, and that's awesome, and we really love that. But now he's showing what a great character he can be, the timing that he has. Just his aura right now is is absolutely unbelievable. So, yeah, Ricochet's work has been absolutely incredible to watch. It's been super super fun and I'll tell you what, you know, I may be a good guy, but i'm liking this new side of Ricochet. I am."
Elsewhere in the same interview, Cole would have praise for former TNT Champion Daniel Garcia, you can read more about that here.
