A current AEW star has commented on Ricky Starks making his surprise WWE debut on last night’s WWE NXT show.
Former AEW World Tag Team Champion Ricky Starks was officially released from the company on Sunday, and he didn’t spend much time as a free agent.
Starks made a surprise debut on last night’s episode of NXT, where he appeared in the crowd, announcing that the hottest free agent was coming to the hottest brand.
Speaking on Busted Open Radio, former AEW Women’s World Champion Thunder Rosa commented on Starks’ debut on WWE NXT.
She said:
“I was on the phone with someone and they were like, ‘Oh my god, Ricky is on TV on NXT’, and I said, ‘Wait what?!’ I was completely surprised, completely surprised. It took me completely by surprise.
“He’s one of the hungriest individuals I’ve ever met. Intellectually, physically, in his career, he’s extremely passionate about everything he does. His promos, the way that he carries himself, he takes that very to heart.
“From NWA and everything that happened in the pandemic when we were making absolutely zero money, he got a great opportunity coming to AEW, doing something that he did in NWA which was to put himself over with his charisma, his abilities on the microphone and his abilities in the ring.
“And he worked extremely hard to get to the top at AEW.”
