Ricochet has been working with a lot of bigger guys lately like Gunther and Sheamus, and he recently discussed why he enjoys those types of matches. During his conversation with Digital Spy, the Smackdown star compared his matches against physically bigger WWE stars with his matches against the more technical and aerial roster, noting that there’s parts of each that he enjoys.

“I do enjoy those matches, with Gunther, with Sheamus, Bobby Lashley, the more physical altercations,” Ricochet said. “I don’t know what I enjoy more, that or like a Santos [Escobar], or Humberto, or someone like that, because they’re both so different and I like aspects of both of them.”

He continued, “I like the physicality and the brutalness of the Sheamuses and the Gunthers, but I do like the speed and the technique and the skill of the other matches. So it’s hard to pick which one you like more because, as an artist, you just want to create. So any time you can get an opportunity to create something, I think it’s wonderful. But I definitely do enjoy them. When you’re out there, there’s something about it. You’ve got to be a little crazy to like it, but when you’re out there and the adrenaline’s going, two guys, we’re just battling. There’s something about it, you’ve got to be a little crazy.”

Ricochet’s last TV match was a win over Top Dolla on the January 6th episode of Smackdown to qualify for this weekend’s Royal Rumble.
