AEW's Ricochet attacked a former wrestling booker

Earlier, AEW star Will Ospreay, who is currently on the shelf after surgery, responded to a social media clip of some people wrestling in his backyard. Former wrestling booker Jim Cornette apparently didn't take kindly to The Aerial Assassin's video endorsement, using it as an excuse to point out his neck issues and criticize his in-ring style.

Ricochet, however, defended Ospreay on X/Twitter, attacking Cornette arguing that old-school wrestlers who worked relatively “safe” styles have also suffered various types of injuries, and they also had to undergo surgeries for them.

“A bunch of old school guys didn't have knees, backs, hips, necks and all other types of surgeries/injuries? Aren't they working smart? You sound like a piece of shit.”

Cornette responded on The Human Highlight Reel by stating that there was a distinction between modern highlights and punches from the era, going so far as to claim that Ricochet and his cohorts are “stealing money” from Tony Khan for criticizing his work.
