During a recent interview with TV Insider, WWE NXT Superstar Ricochet took the opportunity to discuss various topics, including being able to keep his ring name when he came to WWE.

Below is what he had to say:

”It was cool because the last 15 years of my life has been about trying to build up a name. When I got to WWE, there was some rumblings about changing it. I was okay with that because it has worked in the past, and I had a few choices lined up. But when they said I was able to keep it, it meant the world to me because it was definitely a name I put my blood, sweat and tears in building. I built my own name. All the hard work built up to this.”

Ricochet is slated to challenge Adam Cole for the NXT North American Championship At this coming Saturday night’s NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn IV event.
