Former WWE star Ricochet has reportedly signed a multi-year contract with AEW with some sources indicating he is planned for an appearance at Sunday’s All In: London.
Fightful reported the news Thursday afternoon without any additional details other than what is written above outside that he worked with an agent to broker the deal.
News originally broke in June that the 35-year-old was not returning to WWE after roughly six years with the company. In July, our Dave Meltzer reported that it was expected that AEW would be his eventual destination.
He has yet to speak publicly since departing, written off TV by an attack from Bron Breakker.
During his time in WWE, he held the Speed title, the Intercontinental title, the United States title, and the NXT North American title. He is also engaged to WWE ring announcer Samantha Irvin.
All In emanates from London’s Wembley Stadium on Sunday.

He has also written for Fight Magazine, Bloody Elbow, Bleacher Report, and other websites. He's a 2000 graduate of the University of Maine, worked in pro sports, and once was an indie ring announcer.
