Freddie Prinze Jr. – ‘Ricky Starks The Best Heel In AEW Right Now’

No one is proving to be a more dastardly heel in AEW right now than Ricky Starks, according to former WWE writer Freddie Prinze Jr.

On the latest episode of his “Wrestling with Freddie” podcast, the Scooby Doo actor had nothing but praise for Starks and his recent attack on Ricky Steamboat. He said,

“He calls himself ‘Absolute Ricky Starks,’ but I’m calling him ‘Goddamn Starks,’ baby. He walked out and had a purse/backpack on. Just that alone was heat and he was strutting with it. The son of a b**** is wearing the belt that he whipped the a** of Ricky ‘The Dragon’ Steamboat with… I will say this, this is the first week that he got some boos. It took whooping a 70-year-old man’s ass. Heel Ricky did a great job again. I think he’s the top heel on all of AEW right now. Granted, he’s gotten to be with CM Punk, he’s getting ‘A’ storylines, and he’s opening the show nearly every week, but I feel like he’s earned it at this point. Every time they’ve given him a little, he’s made a lot.”

“What was the Taz saying back in the day — ‘If you can turn chicken s*** into chicken salad.’ If you can do that, then you have a skill, and he did. So now they’re serving him up with better ingredients and look at the dishes he’s serving up. Every week he’s doing something real, real good. Some have been better than others, but he hasn’t had a bad episode of AEW Collision yet.”
