#5 Ricochet (Will Not Benefit):

Ricochet's first night on Raw as a solo competitor didn't go as expected.
Ricochet's first night on Raw as a solo competitor didn't go as expected.

Ricochet was called up to the main roster in February. Like NXT, he started teaming up with Aleister Black. The chemistry between the two members and their matches were quite amazing. However, they lacked a clear direction and defining characters.

Anyone who has been a fan of WWE for a long time knows that gimmicks or unique personalities are necessary in order to thrive on main roster, especially on the flagship show. Unfortunately, Ricochet lacks both as of now.

It would have been better for him to keep teaming up with Black for a few more months. Until he develops a strong charismatic personality, "The One and Only" will have a hard time finding a prominent position on the roster. A clean loss to Bobby Robert Roode on his first night as a solo competitor isn't a sign of good things to come. Here's hoping that he bounces back from the loss and enters the US title scene sooner than later.
