EJ! Posted February 19, 2020 Report Share Posted February 19, 2020 Ricochet is just not a top guy to me. He's obviously a top athlete with a ton of skill. But...I'm a bit bewildered by his push. I'm not sure what WWE thinks they're going to pull out of him that we haven't already seen. I'm pretty sure we've seen it all. To top it off, his promo skills are flat, and somehow getting flatter. He's a fan favorite...and that's great. But, he ain't "that guy". I mean...to me, he very much comes off as a dude named Trevor, who plays a dude named Ricochet, who works for an entertainment company. He isn't suspending my disbelief for half a second...and that's the biggest part of professional wrestling. He needs to do more. He has that "babyface shine" that's near impossible to rub off. You can't just be "happy to be here". How many careers has that been the death of? A lot. he suffers from Babyfaceitis. WWE cant book babyfaces well and i dont know why. literally just dont give em corny shit to say and hell be fine. dude has a cool look, cool entrance, cool moves but he gets on the mic and talks about chasing your dreams and believing in yourself man nobody wants to hear that Disney channel ass shit. i dont know why they wont let babyfaces just talk shit, they literally always get over that way. like i cant think of a time that didnt work. if theyre not great on the mic just have em talk shit. not everyone has to be humble.

Eh...I think it sounds fine when someone like Mustafa Ali does it. So...really, I think it's just something Ricochet is lacking. He has really weak delivery.

EJ! Posted February 19, 2020 Report Share Posted February 19, 2020 Mustafa makes it work because hes great on the mic and very believable. Ricochet is not and the stuff they give him to say does not help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AONO. Posted February 19, 2020 Report Share Posted February 19, 2020 I would say it's babyfaceitis but that he also lacks delivery and conviction for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nerd Posted February 19, 2020 Report Share Posted February 19, 2020 Cant wait until Cena returns. Im so ready. Never thought Id miss the guy as much as I have the past year or whatever. Its not the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bushy. Posted February 19, 2020 Report Share Posted February 19, 2020 I dont think Ricochet is as bad as you guys are making him out to be on the mic. IMO hes just scripted bad dialogue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaperThinWalls Posted February 19, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2020 Agreed. The guy is no Ric Flair, but he can get by if he didn't have that awful scripted dialogue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St★rstrucꓘ Posted February 19, 2020 Report Share Posted February 19, 2020 I'm sure most people who aren't given scripted promos would be a lot better if they were allowed to go off the dome. You can almost easily tell when someone's promo has been written from top to bottom by somebody backstage, but even then, you can definitely make it sound more convicting and less scripted by knowing how to change your tone and such. Scripted promos CAN be good. Most of the time they aren't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
