EJ! Posted February 14, 2017 Report Share Posted February 14, 2017 Currently, who do you think is better in-ring, character wise, etc? Or who do you prefer and why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cuey82 Posted February 14, 2017 Report Share Posted February 14, 2017 Ricochet, has more personality in the ring, started to mix power moves into his moveset over the past 2 years, to be fair Ospreay is great. I just think their in different stages of their careers in a way, Ricochet is like a mid career and achieved a lot on the indies, Ospreay is still at the beginning stages of his career building his indy credentials if you like (excluding NJPW which obviously isn't an indy) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HijoDelSeñorBenjamin Posted February 14, 2017 Report Share Posted February 14, 2017 Ricochet's definitely got more charisma and it-factor. When he walks out to the ring, he looks like a "somebody". He's progressed a lot since he first popped up as a skinny kid who just did flips for no reason. I'm not really into Ospreay, the matches of his I've seen were just stunt shows with no storytelling and he seems to have the personality of damp wallpaper. I've seen 5 or 6 full matches of his, though, so I'm not going to write him off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St★rstruck Posted February 14, 2017 Report Share Posted February 14, 2017 Definitely Ricochet, for the reasons already mentioned. Ospreay is cool, but he seems to be more about flips, tricks, and stunts than anything else right now...whereas Richochet seems to have more variety in his style - something that he's been working on over the past several years.

cuey82 Posted February 14, 2017 Report Share Posted February 14, 2017 I think Ospreay now is Ricochet in 2008/2009 but is progressing (excuse the pun) at a quicker rate, I think it'll be a couple of years before we see from Ospreay what he can do on a level of current day Ricochet, he's got the potential though. There's some great story telling from his fued's with Jimmy Havoc in Progress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lil' Kazu Posted February 14, 2017 Report Share Posted February 14, 2017 I agree that Ricochet is more well rounded but Ospreay's 2016 was phenomenal from putting on awesome matches to winning Best of the Super Juniors, he can only go up from here. If he continues to challenge his style and have matches with different opponents like Shibata this year can be even better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astro Zombie Posted February 15, 2017 Report Share Posted February 15, 2017 I'd say Ricochet is better all-around. But with that being said, it took Ricochet about a decade to become what he is now. Ricochet is at his peak, whereas Ospreay is just coming up. He's a spot monkey with hype. Lots of flips and theatrics with no rhyme or reason, but that was Ricochet up until about two years ago.

Saturi Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 Love them both and they put up great matches against each other! Like the others already said, Ricochet has more experience but Will is very talented and is catching up fast. Both great talents that are a treat to watch in the ring and by that I don't mean only a treat for the eyes but most of all for their wrestling!

PopUpPowerPost Posted March 17, 2017 Report Share Posted March 17, 2017 Personality wise Ospreay is just to "cheesy". A dork, if you will. And not the cool kind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CROSS-Out Posted March 17, 2017 Report Share Posted March 17, 2017 I think it's a bit of an unfair question to ask really. Ricochet and Ospreay are pretty much on the exact same path, but Ricochet is further down that path. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, its like all three are dots on the same line, and each ones just at a different spot on the line while racing towards the end. There's subtle differences but there's an uncanny resemblance in all three of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
