Despite being considered one of AEW's most reliable killers since its inception, Jon Moxley's current streak as world champion has disgusted many spectators. However, a former WWE United States champion currently signed with the company led by Tony Khan – Ricochet – has left surprisingly in defense of self -proclaimed One True King.
Despite its violently memorable beginning, Moxley's current reign with AEW's world title has consistently received negative criticisms of spectators due to its repetitive and formulaic reserve and the lack of a convincing story. The Purveyor of Violence defended its belt successfully against Adam Copeland last weekend in Revolution 2025, in one of the main events most criticized in the company's history.
In a surprising movement, the promotion announced Wednesday that Mox and Cope will face the World Championship once again in a street fight next week in Dynamite. The announcement caused a generalized negative reaction of the All Elite fans base, who have been crying out because Tony Khan concludes Moxley's reign and ends the current story of The Death Riders for some time. The Heel Group has now found a surprising defender in Ricochet's form.
Appearing in The Mark Hoke ShowThe One and Only recognized Jon Moxley and The Death Riders for their central philosophy as a faction – extract the best possible performance of their opponents. However, the High-Flyer clarified that he had no interest in demolishing One True King and his soldiers at the moment and that his only approach was in Kenny Omega and his International AEW championship.
“Whenever you have a group like that, it makes everyone responsible and keeps everyone in a certain standard, people will have to take a step forward or be beaten. And again, everyone can say what they want about Jon Moxley and Death Riders, but if you have something to say, then go overcome them and change them – what no one has done. And I am not saying that I am. Kenny, ”said Ricochet.
Ricochet failed to become a contender to the world title of All Elite this last Sunday when he lost against Swerve Strickland in Revolution.
Ricochet is ready for action this week at AEW Collision

The Future of Flight will compete in a first round confrontation in the elimination tournament of the current international title, whose winner will challenge Kenny Omega for his belt in AEW Dynasty 2025.
