Is Ricochet really quitting WWE? This has emerged as a burning question in the wrestling industry for the last few weeks. The former WWE United States Champion has had a successful career in the promotion. However, it appears he is unhappy, as he informed the company of his decision to leave. Ricochet’s contract expired in June 2024, but is he genuinely liberated from the company?

So yet, there has been no update on this matter from either party. Ricochet had made a storied appearance on Raw a few weeks previously, where Bron Breakker dished out a vicious assault to him before disappearing from the scene. Although there has been no official comment from the promotion on the release of the 35-year-old, it appears that they have dropped another hint about his release. WWE has officially removed Ricochet from the list of active WWE superstars on their website. As of today, you cannot locate him there. This brought up the issue among fans as to whether the former US Champion has found himself fully removed from the company’s website.
