That shouldn’t be a hyperbole either. Ricochet should just be literally dead in kayfabe. No “oh he’s just severely injured”, just straight up say he died.
apology for poor english
when were you when Ric O'Shea dies
i was sat at home drinking Prime when fred durst rang
'Ric is die'
'no'
and you???????
(ah man, this will never get old. Just like Ricochet)
One day we're gonna turn on Raw and see a bald Andre Chase doing flips and hear Michael Cole go "Ricochet has been on a real hot streak since turning over a new leaf!"
I assume that's when Chuck could still do backflips.
Man, when he said that in the interview you could tell there's a little pain there, regardless of how positive he's being.
Scene: Bron Breakker pounces Ricochet so hard he flies out of the arena.
(some time later)
Ricochet lands in the parking lot just as AEW Dynamite is about to start
Bron spears Ricochet through a wall tonight, and they never speak of him again. Wednesday on Dynamite, Ricochet crashes in through a wall in the middle of someone’s promo, and he just gets up, dusts himself off, and walks into The Elite’s office.
Damn good thing non-competes have recently been [banned by the FTC,](https://www.ftc.gov/news-events/news/press-releases/2024/04/ftc-announces-rule-banning-noncompetes) not that I see Samantha going anywhere. She's a star in WWE.
I'd imagine WWE are just gonna let him walk. Can't justify paying him more money than they're offering when they had to secure the likes of Seth, Drew, and Becky first.
And it feels like Ricochet wants to bet on himself elsewhere as he's clearly not moving any higher up the card than he is right now.
I enjoyed him in LU(though his matches were always beat downs until he got his shit in and won). I think he could do well in AEW but he still lacks any promo ability after years, that will always limit him especially in AEW where promos aren't generally scripted.
That said, put him in the DC family or even better have Stokely manage him and he'll do just fine.
Typically they continue to book someone who’s leaving in hopes of getting them to re-sign. For them to be writing him out this quickly, I’m guessing Ricochet must’ve made it very clear that his decision is final and nothing will change his mind.
Wonder what will happen on raw tonight then coz they were definitely setting up a triple threat for a ple and now bron vs ilja could be great but also may be too soon for two guys just called up
Hell, they were setting up a Ricochet heel turn judging from the last few weeks. It makes you wonder if all those thinly veiled Osprey comments(and a couple others, but his were the main ones) about "trying to get him out" and what not made him change his mind about staying cause this is a very sudden change from what they were building(which at the very least should have been a triple threat at Clash, now it seems he won't even stick around for that)
Awww :( regardless of all the hate, I really liked Ricochet and how many moments he made. I always show people who don’t watch wrestling the Ricochet moonsault into the Adam Cole superkick.
Richochet, if you’re seeing this, you rule man!
What i thought. Don Callis costs Will the match against Swerve at FD. Ospreay wants to kill Callis... Callis brings in his arch nemesis. Ospreay vs Rik O'Shea at All In.
Can you explain what that championship is? I saw promos for it few times when I watched WWE on tv but I have no idea what it is. I don't have any other social media so I can't watch it either.
It’s just a promotional tool I’m sure was paid for by the advertising department of Twitter/x. They have 3 minute long matches that are exclusively shown on Twitter/X
lucky he's leaving in the HHH era, Vince would have changed his name to Ping Pong, planned a 4 post massacre along with a last minute Logan x Samantha cuck angle.
I for one am very excited for Ricochet in AEW. WWEs style definitely held him back where as AEW will be like "go put on the greatest wrestling match of all time"
Osprey vs Ricochet? Just take my $50 already
And then Ricochet can have matches vs OC, any of the Elite, PAC, Rey Fenix, etc etc. Fuck man, Ricochey vs Sydal will be an absolute banger
Found out Ric is 35.
At this point I can't blame him for taking an easier schedule and better money. there are only so many years he has and spinnig his tires in WWE and the being 40 with his style doesn't make the most sense.
I don't know if he will do any better in AEW but its at least a chance for him to do something. Give his body a little break with an easier schedule and probably make more money.
Just don't jump off a 20 foot cage feet first my guy.
I wouldn’t be surprised if he actually wants to wrestle more, he has a schedule. He’s only wrestled 28 times this year that’s barely one match a week. Everyone in WWE has a light schedule at this point because they don’t really do house shows anymore. there’s only like four or 5/2 shows each month and someone like ricochet isn’t gonna make those
I don’t think Ricochet has the charisma to be world champion level in AEW, but he’s good enough in ring to hold any other title and get a big push. He will get to have long competitive matches and I wonder if that is appealing to him?
So is he gonna get a "moment"? Any kind of subtle acknowledgement or is he gonna get his brains beat in and carted off? I would think, if they're not gonna acknowledge it, just tell him to stay home and let somebody else get theTV time.
Gonna miss seeing Ricochet in WWE, he was always a highlight.
Also wish he achieved a bit more. If only he was a better promo, although I think he was definitely improving. I know reddit likes to point at the promo with Drew for killing his credibility with the audience but that's such a cop out. Outside of reddit I've literally never heard anyone bring it up, because the casual audience doesn't give a shit about one bad promo and they much less remember it years later. Only reason I remember that promo is because someone on here is bound to bring it up every time Ricochet is discussed.
It's for the best. Ricochet is kind of spinning his wheels in WWE and there's alot of fresh, amazing sounding matches out there in other promotions that are worth having while he's young and still can go.
With Ricochet leaving the company, there will officially be nobody from that weirdly fantastic NXT ladder match that god five stars out of nowhere. They're all gone.
I want to Bron spear him when Ricochet is hitting a springboard moonsault or whatever move that can make him getting spear like a powerslam style tonight.
Ricochet loses a competitive and respectful match vs. Bron. The two men exchange handshakes and give each other a nod to acknowledge that this was Ricochet's last WWE match. Cameras follow him back through Gorilla and down the hall, where all of his coworkers are lined up, looking bummed that he's moving on. I mean, I'd miss working with that guy; he's genuinely a nice dude. Tozawa is there awkwardly smiling, not knowing what's going on. HHH comes by and says, "Hey, I just want to say thank you for your time here. We arranged for a car to take you back to your hotel and to the airport when you're ready." Ricochet shakes his hand and says thank you.
The camera then cuts to the parking lot, where Ricochet (still in full gear for some reason) makes his way to the white limo HHH arranged, looks at the camera, and gives a nod. He gets into the limo, closes the door, and BAM. The limo explodes into a ball of flames, and the camera just focuses on the burning car.
And that's the opening to Raw tonight.
Aw man I was just starting to get a little invested in him outside the ring. His friendly rivalry with ilja has been really fun to watch. Triple threat between those two and bron would have been so fire
The [Ricochet/Logan Paul collision in the Battle Royal](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G02RnW-7aQI) was one of my favourite spots of the past few years.
I wish him well.

I wonder if Bron will go with his trademark steel steps murder or if he'll mix it up.
He should just hold the steel steps on his shoulder and then spear him.
Of all the men who have ever walked in a WWE ring, he is probably one of 2 that could do that and not break a sweat. The other is the Big Bad Booty Daddy.
https://38.media.tumblr.com/aaa5e42faa03473b9086b31b38dde514/tumblr_n6iqg6dgfu1rofocqo1_400.gif Don't sleep on Cena
And have we all forgotten Cesaro so easily?
Brock could too I'm sure.
1000 tons of pure steel! Bah gawd
He'll spear Ricochet through a ladder, when he goes through the other side he's alone. Ricochet will vanish.
Isekai'd by Bron-kun!
*I Got Speared by Bron Breakker and Woke Up In A World Where Everyone's a Create-a-Wrestler but Only I Have a High-Flyer Moveset!?!? (And Also There Are RPG Levels and Classes for Some Reason)* premieres this fall
OK, but I would actually watch this.
But only if that is the exact title
Speared Ricochet into the backrooms
And when the lights come back up, all that’s left in the ring is an urn and a mask.
Bron Breakker is going to murder a man tonight.
May he find peace in the afterlife with Bron's other victim, Von Wagner.
And Cameron Grimes, and Xyon Quinn... Someone should do something about Bron murdering people.
We could call the Family. Fight murder with murder.
The family has never murdered anyone ![gif](giphy|I2m7l4yZqRdgk)
Just a innocent waste management operation and it's offensive to suggest otherwise
What if they recruit Bron seeing how talented at murder he is?
My god, there'd be no stopping them.
Bron the Don.
He clearly learnt from his former partner Corbin’s failed attempt with Rey and Black during the MITB pandemic match
I know a certain FATASS 🚨🚨🚨that nothing bad ever happened when he was around. They should think about rehiring him.
HEY DIJAK! TAKE THOSE STUPID SUNGLASSES OFF. WE'RE INSIDE!
RIP Cum Tuesday NEVER FORGET
Death of Superman cover but it's Samantha cradling Ricochet
Or Death in the Family with Cena cradling a broken and bloody Ricochet.
why is Cena the Batman in this
I can't see this.
Bron spearing Ricochet so hard he's left laying in the Yamcha crater
There needs to be more Yamcha poses in wrestling
Here’s hoping Pat gets to use the word “cadaverific” tonight
Swap em https://preview.redd.it/yon3ba9itt5d1.jpeg?width=668&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ee83699106b8825d96d008df4a52e2a5f129e3cf
RIPochet
Ric-oh-shit
That shouldn’t be a hyperbole either. Ricochet should just be literally dead in kayfabe. No “oh he’s just severely injured”, just straight up say he died.
"Ricochet was taken to a local embalming facility."
ANAL BLEEDING
![gif](giphy|129AAiBozCNCPm)
Smackdown opens with a 10 bell salute and a tribute to the life of Ricochet
Then the ricochet memorial battle royal proceeds. Won by Bron Breakker.
Ah, the Adam Cole treatment.
apology for poor english when were you when Ric O'Shea dies i was sat at home drinking Prime when fred durst rang 'Ric is die' 'no' and you??????? (ah man, this will never get old. Just like Ricochet)
Bron Breakker wins. FATALITY.
Richard O'Shea was 35 years old.
Samantha better be wearing black tonight because it's gonna be her fiancé's funeral.
By "final" appearance, they fucking MEAN IT.
Bron is going to give Ricochet the Kale Dixon special.
[Ricochet gonna look like this at the end of RAW](https://i.kym-cdn.com/entries/icons/original/000/048/404/squishface.jpg)
Gonna spear right into the grave
My first thought reading the title of the post was "my man about to get fuckedddd up!"
Bron about to turn him into the second man that gravity forgot
Bron's gonna yeet him out of the arena like Uncle Phil
![gif](giphy|wQCWMHY9EHLfq)
You mean they're not going to recast Ricochet like Aunt Viv?
One day we're gonna turn on Raw and see a bald Andre Chase doing flips and hear Michael Cole go "Ricochet has been on a real hot streak since turning over a new leaf!"
i see what you did there, you son of a bitch (still chuckled)
Now I want Ricochet vs PAC
Well...
Ricochet vs PAC vs Big Show?
Big Show just stands in the middle of the ring as a fifth post to do aerial moves off of.
That old gif of Seth Rollins in the indies when he did a moonsault off the audience member.
Big Show provides the gravitational pull needed to keep the match in the ring.
Random six-star banger on Collision this September. Neither man may touch the canvas unless it’s a pinning predicament.
Last Man Flying match
somewhere in the CHIKARA shows there is a 4way with ricochet, pac, someone else, and chuck taylor. chuck’s promo beforehand is wonderful.
I assume that's when Chuck could still do backflips. Man, when he said that in the interview you could tell there's a little pain there, regardless of how positive he's being.
Scene: Bron Breakker pounces Ricochet so hard he flies out of the arena. (some time later) Ricochet lands in the parking lot just as AEW Dynamite is about to start
I'd love it. After the Boneyard Match, i wanted AJ to show back up brushing dirt off himself and never mention it
wasn't Sandow carrying the MITB briefcase with seaweed and stuff coming out of it?
Yup. Likewise, when Undertaker chokeslamed Edge "to hell" when Edge re-appeared it should have been emerging from the ground all burned.
Good bros should have had like a two minute scene of slowly waking up in the rubble of the burnt house
I’d pop for that
Mr Bean style entrance?
![gif](giphy|PqcIFm93VxA8o|downsized) Ricochet when he sees Bron running full speed at him.
i’m crying imagining the sound of his scream randomly fading in during a backstage segment right before he crash lands
Forbidden Slingshot
They're gonna write off Ricochet like Poochy from The Simpsons.
![gif](giphy|SFp9RLto964Ew|downsized)
gonna do a reverse 630 senton into space
This would have been fitting for Neville. Gravity actually forgets him and he just floats away.
While the ducktales NES moon theme plays
I was also thinking of this scenario where they literally blast him off into space. They have the chance to do the greatest thing ever tonight.
he does the front flip out of the ring but just keeps rolling up and away
He does a flip, the lights go out while he's mid-air and then poof he's gone like the Undertaker.
![gif](giphy|3og0IAfQPHlW7mfgUE|downsized)
Bron spears Ricochet through a wall tonight, and they never speak of him again. Wednesday on Dynamite, Ricochet crashes in through a wall in the middle of someone’s promo, and he just gets up, dusts himself off, and walks into The Elite’s office.
Through the Forbidden Wall!
that's the Shockmaster's wall
Bron's bout to send this man to the great beyond
We going to learn tonight why his last name is Breakker.
Or Uncle Howdy and the group's gonna kill him in kayfabe offscreen
Their debut is next week based on the viral numbers I think.
Yeah but they could just do a tease where they don't actually show them, offscreen the murder scene or smthn.
I think we are going to see a video of Samantha crying.
If he has a match she might be in tears announcing him.
I hope she introduces him as “The One and Only.” I always liked that more than “The Highlight of the Night” and miss those chants.
Not that I think she's going anywhere...but are announcers even on talent contracts? Or can they just split whenever?
Renee Young/Paquette not only had a contract but she also had an actual 1 year no compete clause.
Damn good thing non-competes have recently been [banned by the FTC,](https://www.ftc.gov/news-events/news/press-releases/2024/04/ftc-announces-rule-banning-noncompetes) not that I see Samantha going anywhere. She's a star in WWE.
![gif](giphy|LTFbyWuELIlqlXGLeZ)
F's in chat for Ricochet.
F
Bron putting in an application to The Family tonight.
Do the right thing and have him murdered off.
TNA partnership going too far
I would not be mad if this all ended in Rico as X Division Champion.
Would he have Billy and Chuck as backup?
Me when watching Jar Jar Binks
How wude
me when watching jim and pam
spear him over the top rope and into the abyss
Joesph Park just standing there waiting to catch him
I'd imagine WWE are just gonna let him walk. Can't justify paying him more money than they're offering when they had to secure the likes of Seth, Drew, and Becky first. And it feels like Ricochet wants to bet on himself elsewhere as he's clearly not moving any higher up the card than he is right now.
theyre about to have bron breakker go crazy on that man 😭😭😭
Dudes gonna be killed by Bron Breakker on live tv
I enjoyed him in LU(though his matches were always beat downs until he got his shit in and won). I think he could do well in AEW but he still lacks any promo ability after years, that will always limit him especially in AEW where promos aren't generally scripted. That said, put him in the DC family or even better have Stokely manage him and he'll do just fine.
I wish he was masked like in LU he’s better at physical charisma then speaking
I wonder how far back he'd given his notice for them to run with this creative so quickly.
Typically they continue to book someone who’s leaving in hopes of getting them to re-sign. For them to be writing him out this quickly, I’m guessing Ricochet must’ve made it very clear that his decision is final and nothing will change his mind.
Wonder what will happen on raw tonight then coz they were definitely setting up a triple threat for a ple and now bron vs ilja could be great but also may be too soon for two guys just called up

I am sure Ricochet talked about it with Ospreay as friends and Ospreay was just parroting his thoughts.
It was reported he gave his notice late last week.
Ricochet leaving the building tonight: ![gif](giphy|Wr2747CnxwBSqyK6xt|downsized)
Here comes a Bron Breakker beatdown
Here comes the Bron Breakker, murderer. He's a lyrical gangster, murderer.
Dial emergency number, murderer Still squash you like that, murderer
Oh man so 10 minutes of Bron hitting him with a wrench huh
Debut howdy and let the howdy family destroy him.
Awww :( regardless of all the hate, I really liked Ricochet and how many moments he made. I always show people who don’t watch wrestling the Ricochet moonsault into the Adam Cole superkick. Richochet, if you’re seeing this, you rule man!
What is Rebound doing in the Elitezone???
Bron commits murder on live TV in 4K 😖
Adding my own original comment about Bron murdering Ricochet because thats all this thread is.
Bron: ![gif](giphy|xP51Z5tIv41ghj40w4|downsized)
Damn I was hoping we’d get that triple threat. Well Bron is gonna kill a man tonight.
It's about to go down
The Speed Championship is gonna be renamed the Ricochet Memorial Belt lol.
Joker in the TNT Title ladder Match?
That would actually be a nice callback to his NXT debut, which was in the North American title ladder match, right?
Heel Ricochet as Ospreay's replacement in the Don Callis Family would pretty great I think.
What i thought. Don Callis costs Will the match against Swerve at FD. Ospreay wants to kill Callis... Callis brings in his arch nemesis. Ospreay vs Rik O'Shea at All In.
Someone needs to be written off TV? Send for the Don
Bron Breakker vs Ricochet about to be wrestling's Mountain vs Viper
Is he not the speed champion anymore? I don’t have an X so I have no idea
Just lost it to Andrade but it hasn’t aired yet
Can you explain what that championship is? I saw promos for it few times when I watched WWE on tv but I have no idea what it is. I don't have any other social media so I can't watch it either.
It’s just a promotional tool I’m sure was paid for by the advertising department of Twitter/x. They have 3 minute long matches that are exclusively shown on Twitter/X
Bron's gonna lift up the ring and drop it on Ricochet's head
lucky he's leaving in the HHH era, Vince would have changed his name to Ping Pong, planned a 4 post massacre along with a last minute Logan x Samantha cuck angle.
Death by Breakker coming tonight. Oh boy.
I for one am very excited for Ricochet in AEW. WWEs style definitely held him back where as AEW will be like "go put on the greatest wrestling match of all time" Osprey vs Ricochet? Just take my $50 already And then Ricochet can have matches vs OC, any of the Elite, PAC, Rey Fenix, etc etc. Fuck man, Ricochey vs Sydal will be an absolute banger
They should have ricochet pin Bron clean just to fuck with us

Ricochet vs. Lio Rush at Forbidden Door would be nice
Rick O’Shea vs Lee O’Rush
The battle of Dublin
If he's free by FD, and NJPW is willing to go that route, Ricochet vs Jeff Cobb for the NJPW TV title after answering the open challenge
" I didn't come here to talk. Then Shut Up!!" Bron will proceed to send him out of the WWE universe lol
Triple H https://youtu.be/EbXoqQ3Xo28?si=u2oTk0TEuNxU2eb_
Oh no they’re going to squash him for the eighth time
Bron is about to put that man through the screen isn't he 😭
So is he gonna get a "moment"? Any kind of subtle acknowledgement or is he gonna get his brains beat in and carted off? I would think, if they're not gonna acknowledge it, just tell him to stay home and let somebody else get theTV time.

Bron’s gonna run him over with a car
I hope he doesn’t take Samantha with him.
It's for the best. Ricochet is kind of spinning his wheels in WWE and there's alot of fresh, amazing sounding matches out there in other promotions that are worth having while he's young and still can go.
But his status is up in the air. But this could be his final appearance. Maybe. Or not. Possibly.
The spear is officially renamed the future endeavors
Did he already drop y That dumb speed title?
With Ricochet leaving the company, there will officially be nobody from that weirdly fantastic NXT ladder match that god five stars out of nowhere. They're all gone.
I hope he bounces back
Welp. RIP.
I love it how you all accurately predicted Bron Breakker to murder him
Ricochet about to be powerbombed through the ring
What is Rick O'Shea doing in the Collision Zone?
Bron Breaker will deliver holy judgement upon him Ricochet is the student...... Bron Breaker is the teacher
I want to Bron spear him when Ricochet is hitting a springboard moonsault or whatever move that can make him getting spear like a powerslam style tonight.
Bron gonna steal Brauns I’m not finished with you gimmick today
Bron gonna go for a spear and then BLACK SCREEN
HHH: Bron remember that stairs spot against Von Wagner? Do it for real this time
Everybody saying Bron's gonna spear him to death I just want him to contact The Family, ask for their services and shit
Bron is gonna Spear the hell out of Ricochet so fucking hard that he reverts to Prince Puma.
A shooting star press into spear? Good way to die in kayfabe.
Probably also last Dripochet appearance on UpUpDownDown today? :(
Bro gonna go out like William Regal in aew
Samantha gonna go ham announcing his name tonight
Ricochet loses a competitive and respectful match vs. Bron. The two men exchange handshakes and give each other a nod to acknowledge that this was Ricochet's last WWE match.
