Being one of the only stars to appear on this list who also happened to rock up on last year's edition of the article tells you just about all you need to know about Ricochet's last 12-months on WWE's main roster. In short, they've been forgettable.

But that's not through lack of trying to break out from the pack as whenever the freakishly athletic marvel has been given a chance to be the name on everyone's lips - see his Raw bangers with AJ Styles - he's knocked it out of the park. His inability to make inhuman dialogue stick on national TV seems to be holding him back from being considered in the same breath as the other heavy hitters currently seen on Raw and SmackDown, however.

Yet, over in AEW, there's a good chance Tony Khan will just let Ricochet do that thing he's really good at every week. You know? Being one of the best and most influential in-ring performers of his generation. And we'd finally be gifted to slick Rick having the time of his life in-between the ropes again.

Who needs words when you can do a double backflip off a steel cage?
