Karrion Kross Thinks Ricochet Is Very Underrated In WWE
Since joining WWE, the high flying professional wrestler has always been treated as a solid mid card as he won all the possible mid card championships in WWE. Even in the NXT he was a solid mid card as he also won the WWE NXT North American Championship one time during his short NXT run.
On the main roster, he won the WWE United States Championship as well as the WWE Intercontinental championship. So he is not really underrated. It is very uncommon for WWE to push an underdog wrestler. Not everyone is Rey Mysterio of course. So we cannot call him underrated.
Karrion Kross who is a former two times WWE NXT Champion recently spoke to Superstar Crossover with Z100’s Josh Martinez where he talked about his fellow WWE star Ricochet and shared massive praise for him. He said that the former WWE United States champion is extremely underrated in WWE. He said;
“I hope people don’t take this the wrong way, but I think Ricochet is most underrated. The reason is because that is a guy you can put in the ring completely, like on a cold match with no story, and he will be able to get reactions out of any audience that he is working in front of.
“There are certain people that lean more towards storytelling, and there’s certain people that lean more towards highspots. It just depends on what audience you’re working in front of. Some audiences prefer more storytelling, and then other audiences are showing up for the highspots. They want to see hybrid Lucha Libre, which is wonderful. We have a very diverse audience, and each city is different.
“But I’m telling you, man, if you put Ricochet in the ring with anybody, I mean, they’re gonna get their money’s worth. With all due respect to everybody on the roster, everyone gives 110%. I just think that he hits different.”
