#2 Marty Elias had warned Ricochet before he joined WWE

Speaking on SportsKeeda's UnSKripted, former WWE referee Marty Elias said he had warned Ricochet about joining the company in 2017. Elias said that he alerted the former Prince Puma to the fact that his style wouldn't suit WWE.

''They are not going to let you be Ricochet. They are not going to let you be Prince Puma, they are going to handcuff you, and they are going to tell you to be Ricochet WWE," revealed Marty Elias.

He revealed that Ricochet was adamant about getting out of his contract with Lucha Underground so he could go work for WWE. While Elias admitted that it was understandable that a superstar wanted to go to WWE, he feared Ricochet wouldn't be allowed to live up to his potential.

#1 AEW not interested in former WWE Champion Bray Wyatt?

Rumors had suggested that former WWE Champion Bray Wyatt was AEW bound. However, Bryan Alvarez of the Wrestling Observer has stated that the company is not very interested in signing Wyatt as of now. One of the factors could be that Wyatt will cost a large sum of money and the company likely doesn't feel the need to add him to the roster at present.

AEW has brought in many of the released WWE superstars and might be looking to put a cap on the number of former WWE stars it has on the roster. Here is what Alvarez stated:

'' I have talked to people about Bray and they impression that I was given was not a lot of interest and obviously he's going to be asking for a lot of money.''
