Ricky Starks shoots down rumors about his creative direction in AEW

Earlier this year, Ricky Starks told WhatCulture.com that he doesn’t know why he’s not on AEW television and said things are out of his control. There were rumors that Starks possibly turned down being part of a storyline split with Big Bill.

One Twitter/X gave the following opinion about Starks’ absence from television…

“Literally anyone who is going to be pushed as a top champion needs to prove that they can handle the smaller things first. The fact that his attitude when given the smaller opportunities was to pout and disagree with creative is the main reason why he didn’t get bigger shots.”

Starks responded to the user…

“Enough is enough. Usually I don’t even speak on this but it’s tired. I never turned down anything, EVER. Just Stop.”
