Recently, Ricochet sent a direct threat to Zilla Fatu, the cousin of former Undisputed WWE Champion Roman Reigns and the current House of Glory (HOG) Crown Jewel Champion. At 26 years old, Fatu is a prominent heel character known for his active social media presence and ongoing feud with the Lightskin Kingpin. After members of the Anoaʻi family took jabs at Bully Ray, Booker T, and Ricochet online, the AEW National Champion responded by warning Fatu that he would return to HOG wrestling to confront him.
“Brother, dont make me have to come back to MY company @HOGwrestling and beat yo a**,” Ricochet wrote.
Ricochet Challenges Chris Jericho to an AEW Title Match
Amidst ongoing speculation that Chris Jericho may leave AEW to rejoin WWE, the veteran wrestler remains under contract with All Elite Wrestling for now. Jericho recently reflected on his career in an interview with Untapped, praising his matches and storylines involving legendary names such as Jon Moxley, Steve Austin, Kenny Omega, Owen Hart, Shawn Michaels, and The Rock. Responding to Jericho’s remarks, Ricochet pointed out that he was missing from that list simply because they had never faced each other and insisted that Jericho had been avoiding a match with him.
“Only cause he hasn’t fought me yet. He’s running from me,” Ricochet wrote.

Dutch Mantell Comments on Tony Khan’s Control Over Chris Jericho’s Future
On his podcast “Story Time with Dutch Mantell,” the former WWE manager discussed Chris Jericho’s status within AEW. Mantell emphasized that as Jericho remains under contract with Tony Khan, the company’s president holds complete authority over Jericho’s involvement and schedule. Mantell colorfully described how Khan could allow Jericho to focus on his personal life while continuing to be paid without appearing frequently.
“All you can say is that Tony Khan wants to do it. His money. So we said, ‘Listen. Go over there and you know that house you live it? Go over there and be with your wife and be with your kids and whatever. Go out and eat or watch a movie or whatever and we could send you a cheque to sit over and do that’.” said Mantell.
The future of Chris Jericho in All Elite Wrestling remains uncertain, but fans are eager to see if the veteran will return to active competition soon.
