Ricochet has become one of the protagonists of current news in recent days. The former United States Champion's contract with WWE expires this summer, but everything indicates that he will not sign a new agreement. And, as Mike Johnson from PWInsider has investigated, Ricochet would have informed the company of his intention not to renew once his current contract expires.
In this way, the fighter would become a free agent in a matter of weeks, being able to sign with any other company immediately. This could also explain the recent creative decisions that WWE has made in the last week, both in WWE Speed and Monday Night Raw.
It should be remembered that Ricochet's current contract, like other superstars, was signed in 2019. Most of these agreements had a duration of five years. That's why the company has been working intensely on negotiating new agreements, such as the case of Drew McIntyre or Charlotte Flair, or the release of talent, such as the cases of SCRYPTS or Drew Gulak.
