WWE has another contract set to expire this Summer.
Fightful Select, along with PWN's Viper, have learned that Ricochet's WWE contract is set to expire this Summer. It was reported a few years ago in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter that Ricochet signed a five-year deal in 2019. As things stand, that deal is set to expire this Summer.
Ricochet is expected to get heavy interest from virtually every company able to afford his services. AEW International Champion Will Ospreay was very open in an interview last week in saying that he'd love to face him again.
WWE sources have told Fightful's Sean Ross Sapp that there are have been contract talks between the two sides.
There are numerous WWE contracts coming up this year, as there were numerous five-year deals signed in 2019, and some three year extensions in 2021. We're told that WWE did many of these to coincide with their TV deals.
