He promised the fans that he’ll put in more work.
That’s the thing, in this industry nothing is ever “deserved” it’s all earned. It’s about putting in the work to succeed. I’ve just got to put in more work is all.

Ricochet’s WWE Run is less than satisfactory
Well, even if the rumors were true, Ricochet’s departure would have been totally justified. Before WWE, he had a great run in Lucha Underground and New Japan Pro Wrestling. Therefore, fans wished to see more for him as he signed with WWE.

He has shown immense potential as a solo wrestler in NXT. However, since his move into the main roster, the wrestler is being used as a jobber.
Ricochet enjoyed a United States Championship reign and even got a title opportunity against Brock Lesnar. However, he lost, and then his glory days were over.

Recently, he got paired up with Cedric Alexander and Apollo Crews. But then, Alexander betrayed him and Crews to join the Hurt Business. Looking at the latter’s involvement with the Retribution, Alexander and Ricochet’s storyline is presumably dead.
Despite being a great wrestler, it is sad to see Ricochet getting shoved. However, since he is not going anywhere, hopefully, WWE will appreciate him with a good storyline and a title reign.
