AEW fans are making their feelings about Ricochet crystal clear, and theyre not holding backliterally. During the December 25 AEW Dynamite tapings, Ricochet once again found himself on the receiving end of flying rolls of toilet paper as he made his way to the ring for a match against Darby Allin.
This isnt the first time the Hammerstein Ballroom crowd gave Ricochet a rough reception. Just days earlier, at the December 21 episode of AEW Collision, fans pelted him with TP before his match against Will Ospreay in the Continental Classic tournament. While Ricochet managed to win that match, his treatment by fans was anything but welcoming.
At the Dynamite tapings, the reaction escalated, with an even heavier bombardment of toilet paper rolls. Ricochet, clearly unimpressed, grabbed one of the rolls and hurled it back into the crowda move that only seemed to fuel the fans rowdy energy.
The audiences hostility toward Ricochet seems to be turning him into a natural heel for AEW. Whether this crowd reaction will lead to bigger booking opportunities for The One and Only remains to be seen, but hes certainly not lacking in attention.
What do you think of Ricochets unique reception in AEW? Is this the start of a major heel run, or do you think the fans are being too harsh? Share your thoughts and let us know if you think Ricochet can turn this heat into gold!
