Ricochet reacts after Darby Allin reveals AEW has gotten rid of "egotistical wrestlers who don't want to lose"

Former AEW champion Darby Allin recently alluded to the Jacksonville-based company being better off for letting go of certain talent who refused to lose to their peers. Ricochet has now expressed his agreement with the face-painted star on social media.

Darby Allin recently appeared in an interview with Ariel Helwani on The Ariel Helwani Show. The former TNT Champion discussed how the Jacksonville-based company's backstage culture and environment have improved over the past few years, especially after certain "egotistical wrestlers" who had issues with taking losses were "cut out" of the promotion. While this sparked speculation that he was alluding to CM Punk, Darby quickly clarified that this was not the case.

Just over an hour ago, Ricochet shared a clip of Allin's interview on X/Twitter, along with his comments on the cohesion and teamwork displayed by people on AEW's current roster. The Future of Flight surprisingly expressed his agreement with the "relentless" daredevil, writing:

"The one thing me and this imbecile agree on. #Ahaa," posted Ricochet.

Ricochet and his new stablemates, The Gates of Agony, are set for trios action this weekend at WrestleDream, where they will once again battle The Hurt Syndicate. The Demand defeated the team of MVP, Shelton Benjamin, and Bobby Lashley at last month's All Out pay-per-view, albeit losing to the erstwhile Hurt Business in a Street Fight on Dynamite: Title Tuesday.

Elsewhere in the same interview with Ariel Helwani, Darby Allin shared his views on Jon Moxley, a wrestler widely regarded by viewers as AEW's ace. The Seattle native praised The One True King as an exemplary leader who is present at every show and conducts himself without ego.

"Mox leads by example. He's there at every show. He's there when it starts, here there when it closes. He's got no ego," Allin said. [H/T - AIR on X]

Despite his respect for Moxley, Darby will be looking to take out the Death Riders' leader once and for all this coming weekend at WrestleDream, where he will battle the former World Champion in an "I Quit" match.
