Ricochet is one of the most gifted athletes in the world but his sitting backflip was something else
WWE star Ricochet has always been considered as one of the most gifted athletes in the world of wrestling and has already done some incredible moves in the ring.
Fans might remember his front flip from the ring to the outside which left Velveteen Dream shocked at NXT.
Ricochet’s move to the main brands hasn’t been all that great and that squash against Brock Lesnar will remain a blot in his time with WWE. However, the high flyer has been resurgent in recent weeks.
He has battled against the odds with the Hurt Business and even sold like Eddie Guerrero. However, Ricochet might have outdone himself regarding a sitting backflip going viral on social media.
The WWE star is just sitting on a bunch of mattresses before he decides to backflip and it was pretty impressive.
Ricochet also landed on his feet and the WWE star opened up on this incredible feat.
Doing it blind
Ricochet doesn’t have great eyesight and has fought with contacts on. The WWE star confirmed that this clip was real and added he did it without his glasses, which mean he was almost blind.
Also did this with no contacts or glasses. With nothing on I have -5.25 vision. Basically doing it blind hahaha 🤷🏽♂️ https://t.co/QC5HT54jJ9

The WWE star confirmed via another tweet that he does lose contacts while performing, but this is still some incredible agility shown by Ricochet.
WWE have messed up with his character despite him being one of the best in the business. He was excellent on NXT but the transition to the main brands haven’t worked out so well.
Hopefully, things will change after he won against Cedric Alexander. He seems set to go on a solo run, again, and hopefully, WWE don’t mess around with him too much.
Ricochet is a talent that any promotion in the world would want, and it is up to WWE to put him in a quality storyline.
