2016 was a breakout year for Ricochet. Don't get me wrong, this guy has been putting on wrestling clinics for a while now and actually has been wrestling professionally for nearly 15 years. But, for one reason or another, the stars aligned for him in 2016; and finally, the entire world came to know and respect Ricochet (Prince Puma).
Ricochet has not only been lighting it up in Japan for years, but Lucha Underground also became a catalyst for him to become an even bigger and more popular star.

Last year was a year of title wins, 5-star matches and acclaim beyond belief for the man also known as Prince Puma. 2016 was also the year when people began asking the million dollar question- “when will Ricochet sign a WWE contract?” Many believe that question is close to becoming a reality.
It may also be worth noting that Ricochet is currently involved in a relationship with Tessa Blanchard, daughter of WWE Hall of Famer Tully Blanchard, and Tessa has been getting a lot of action with NXT. Tessa will likely sign a developmental deal soon, and that could sway Ricochet to join the giants of sports entertainment.
Jonathan Carpenter is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda. After obtaining a degree in political science from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, he started writing WWE articles in 2016. Jonathan believes integrity is vital in journalism and ensures his work is high on accuracy. He conducts in-depth research and verifies information from various sources before curating a feature.
Jonathan has engaged in many meaningful conversations with prominent pro wrestling personalities like Drew McIntyre and DDP. He grew up in Memphis, admiring Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan during WWE’s Golden Era in the ‘80s. He has attended many pro wrestling events and credits The Hulkster for making his childhood memorable.
Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.
When not writing pro wrestling features, Jonathan likes to collect sports memorabilia and has amassed a large collection of event-used and autographed relics over the years.
