Ricochet says “don’t get your hopes up” about Sheamus and New Day coming to AEW

Over the weekend, it was reported that Sheamus is set to leave WWE after his contract expires. It was noted that he “rejected a restructured extension.”

In a post via Twitter/X, Ricochet commented on possibility of Sheamus joining AEW along with New Day (Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods aka Austin Creed)…

“Everyone, listen. Neither New Day or Sheamo is coming to @AEW. FOR 1. I’d kick Kofi and Creed’s ass in @Tekken. They know that. And 2, I’d simply just kick Sheamus’ ass. Its easy. Don’t get your hopes up. 👑 👌🏽 #Ahaa”

Everyone, listen. Neither New Day or Sheamo is coming to @AEW.

FOR 1. I'd kick Kofi and Creed's ass in @Tekken. They know that.

And 2, I'd simply just kick Sheamus' ass. Its easy.

Don't get your hopes up. 👑 👌🏽 #Ahaa
