Main Event has played host to many dream matches that could steal the show on Raw and SmackDown. Matches like Andrade vs Ricochet, Humberto Carillo vs Akira Tozawa and many other similar matches make Main Event a platform for the workhorse wrestlers of WWE.

Ricochet has had a decent run in WWE

Ricochet has not had the most optimum WWE career. He debuted in NXT in 2018 and stole the show at NXT Takeover: New Orleans. The high flyer featured in the ladder match for the NXT North American Championship. He won the title a few months later from Adam Cole at NXT Takeover: Brooklyn, in a thrilling match.

He has participated inside War Games, where he emerged victorious over the Undisputed Era. He then lost the North American Title in an amazing contest against Johnny Gargano. In his last NXT match, he and Aleister Black tried to wrest the NXT Tag Team Championships from the War Raiders, but lost in a very valiant effort.

Ricochet debuted on the main roster much before his final NXT match. He debuted in February and within a span of two months, was competing for the SmackDown Tag Team Championships at WrestleMania. Ricochet won his first main roster title at WWE Breaking Ground 2019, in a David vs Goliath battle against Samoa Joe for the US Championship.

Ricochet’s 2020 has been very topsy turvy. He started the year by picking a fight with Brock Lesnar.

The Beast gave Ricochet a title shot in Saudi Arabia, but the high flyer was absolutely decimated by Lesnar. After feuding with the Hurt Business and then Retribution, a feud with Jeff Hardy would be a good pickup for the former US Champion.
