WWE: 5 wrestlers who could beat Andrade for the US Title

Ricochet

Ricochet has to get ready to face Brock Lesnar at WWE Super ShowDown in Saudi Arabia on Feb. 27, but after that show, he’ll be free to compete for the United States Championship. Nobody expects Ricochet to win in Saudi Arabia, especially since Drew McIntyre and Lesnar are destined to meet up at WrestleMania – potentially in the show’s main event.

That said, everyone does expect Ricochet to have an electrifying match that puts Daniel Bryan’s and AJ Styles’ Survivor Series classics with The Beast to the test. Since WWE and Paul Heyman are high on The One and Only, any fears about Lesnar squashing Ricochet should be put to rest. After all, Ricochet did somewhat hold his own in the Rumble before being eliminated.

Ricochet has a big role to play on Raw in 2020, and he has just as high of a ceiling as Andrade. The promos remain a work in progress, but he’ll get there. As a babyface, Ricochet is already doing great, simply because he’s so easy to root for.

The former NXT North American Champion could be a wonderful fighting champion with the US Title around his waist, further elevating the championship that Andrade and Zelina Vega (don’t forget about her importance in this!) have done plenty of work to make prestigious.
