PWInsider.com has confirmed with multiple sources that WWE’s Ricochet has given notice that he intends to exit the company when his current contract expires this summer. We are told that Ricochet is expected to be written out of WWE storylines very soon in advance of the contract expiration. Ricochet is currently part of WWE’s Raw brand.

One source we spoke with said they were giving Ricochet “all the credit in the world for betting on himself.” One would think he’ll quickly be a hot commodity as a free agent.

    It does seem to be the TKO way at this point, I think it’s a crazy thing considering so many signed new contracts before and now at least 2, possibly 3 with Natalya have chosen to see what else is out there under this new system, almost like letting them out is good for the workers, but it could be bad for WWE.

    I think the Speed title was their incentive to stay, you get to be the inaugural champ of this thing we’re doing for a billion dollars, we’re going to pump you up on social… what, yeah you can be on RAW, 50-50 booking though… I think WWE’s under utilization of workers, and this possibly being the first time his contract is up with AEW around probably played more into it.
