MVP praises AEW rival: ‘He’s phenomenal’

MVP is all praise for his iconic All Elite Wrestling rival.

Over the past few months, AEW fans have been witnessing a rising rivalry amongst MVP’s Hurt Syndicate and Ricochet, Toa Liona and Bishop Kaun. However, the 52-year-old has now surprisingly broken character to praise Ricochet. Speaking on his Marking Out podcast, MVP claimed that the 37-year-old high-flyer is doing the ‘best work of his career‘.

“Ricochet is amazing, man. His body control, what he’s capable of doing with his body, the details when he sells, like the little extra pump, he’s phenomenal. In our business, when everything is working the way it’s supposed to, we make each other look better than we are. Ricochet will make you look way better than you actually are and I think he’s doing the best work of his career.”

Last month at AEW WrestleDream, The Hurt Syndicate (MVP, Bobby Lashley, and Shelton Benjamin) faced and defeated The Demand (Ricochet, Toa Liona, and Bishop Kaun) in a thrilling 13-minute bout to determine the number one contender for the AEW World Trios Championship.

MVP’s conversation with a WWE legend about making a movie on his life

A few weeks ago, speaking on his Marking Out podcast, MVP opened up in detail about making a movie/book on his life and career. Sharing details of a conversation with WWE legend Dave Bautista, the current AEW star revealed that discussions have already taken place about bringing his journey to the big screen.

“I have thought about it, and many people have asked me about it, and it’s something that I want to do. And I’ve actually talked to my good friend Dave Bautista. We’ve talked about, with his production company, taking the steps to turn my life story into a movie. It’s something that — I trust Dave to do it. I wouldn’t trust just anybody with it, because my life story is not PG, man.”
