Vince strikes me as someone who once in a blue moon gets bored with his main toys and then finds one in the bottom of the box that he totally forgot existed, and then plays with it for about 10 minutes, and then forgets about it again until the next time.

Well, the choices were either Ricochet, Nakamura or one of the New Day....

They discovered they barely have enough of a Smackdown roster. How much being the #2 babyface means is another story. One could question what being the #1 is when Drew is feuding with Moss and the ex-Bum and Lesner the free agent is facing top Smackdown heel Roman at Mania.

That's insane but good. The more for Ricochet, the better. I just hope Vince doesn't do what he always does and that's to depush stars. I hope this works out for him.

Great! Wonder if the Mania match will be Zayn vs. Ricochet, with Knoxville in his corner.

It means Jack all when Vince can change his mind in an instant.

If a forest has no baby faces but a tree yells out “I’m the #2 face here!!”, what’s that mean???
That trees shouldn’t be able to talk, the f***??

He might be considering wrestling again. He may be high on a lot of things.

Good.
Ricochet should be one of the top guys. He has mainstream appeal.

#2 face on Smackdown just means #2 on the list to feed to DA BIG DAWG for the next year+

PWInsider.com says Ricochet is scheduled to be the #2 babyface on Smackdown behind Drew. So what they're reporting is his contract is coming up?

He technically has been the top midcard babyface for a while on Smackdown. It's just, you know, Smackdown booking of late...
Pat McAfee and Michael Cole on commentary, and some of his opponents (Drew and Sheamus come to mind here) and the crowd have all been telling a different story about Ricochet than his actual booking most of the time. Their narrative is he's one big win off being the big star. The booking narrative is "and then he loses". He's never been treated as anything beyond a joke on PPV.

This is literally failing upwards.
Vince likely had no idea who the f*** Ricochet was but then Cesaro left and Vince needed someone...and just went put a bald guy in as the #2 babyface.
