I do want to see Ricochet work with Ospreay, MJF, Omega, etc. Yet I agree he's too similar to much of the talent they already have on the roster. Between Ricochet, Hologram, Phoenix, Penta, and Komander they have similar skillsets. Let alone the people that come from CMLL. He might get overshadowed by all the others working that Lucha style. He'll definitely put on great matches... but that's not the problem AEW is having.

I could see him coming in a heel with Don Callis (or another manager) to start a feud with Ospreay. Somehow MJF needs the win at All In, and I wouldn't be surprised if the finish is controversial. I know Ospreay is wrestling on home soil, but can MJF lose the title so soon? After just changing the Championship a few weeks ago, it wouldn't make sense for him to lose so soon.

With all that being said, AEW still needs to trim their roster. There are far too many on the active roster that are unaccounted for on a weekly basis (Keith Lee, Miro, Alistair Black, Wardlow, Starks, Garica, Ortiz to name a few). I know they may appear occasionally, but it serves no purpose to have a Lance Archer show up from time to time for random matches only to then disappear for months. WWE used to do that often, where Edge or Styles would come back for one match and then be off television for months. I always hated that kind of booking, it rarely works unless they're at the level of John Cena or The Rock (even then it feels cheap).
