On potentially working for WWE: “If the shoe fits, wear it. I’m very busy, but if the compensation makes sense, then let’s do it… If the WWE wants a savage like me, then sign me up. I’ll go over to WWE and domesticate those guys.”
On being confident in his chances in WWE: “I love fighting. If I go to WWE, I’ll put a hurting on them every night. I’ll torture them, make life f**king hell for all of them. No one over there can beat me.”
In other news, Ricochet has one big thing on his bucket list before he retires – he wants to win a men’s Royal Rumble match.
Speaking with Sporting News, the WWE Superstar opined on why winning a Royal Rumble match is his main goal these days, and more.
You can check out some highlights from the interview below:
On his goal of winning the Rumble match: “One thing I will do, win a Royal Rumble. I’m winning a Royal Rumble.”
On why the Rumble is his main goal: “All of it. The opportunity, the prestige, what it gets you, but also, I feel like one thing that the Royal Rumble shows is the will, the determination, the guts, what you’re willing to go through to accomplish something. The Rey Mysterios, Shawn Michaels, doing it all, I don’t have to be first and do the whole thing, you know what I mean?
“If I come out first, I still plan on winning. I feel like with what Ricochet is capable of doing. I feel like that’s no problem. I feel like the Royal Rumble, especially if you come out early, shows that tenacity and just everything about what it takes to win, and it’s always been my favorite event. Having everybody out there fighting over something, I love it. Obviously, like you said, everyone wants to be World Champion. I’m sure everyone wants to win the Royal Rumble, for sure, but even more, I want to win the Royal Rumble.”
