Here’s what Ricochet said
After the cameras went off, Ricochet went to shake Seth Rollins hand. However, he was called ‘a liar’ by the crowd. Ricochet took the hand back and grabbed the mic. He slammed the WWE Universe and said that he respects the person he is fighting. It doesn’t matter whether his opponent is a Heel or a Babyface. He said that he is offering his hand to a guy who deserves it. He then slammed Brock Lesnar and said that he will take his revenge in Saudi Arabia. He went on to shake Seth Rollins' hand and the former WWE Champion replied with the same gesture.
“One thing I respect is a hell of a fight, so that's why I'm out here offering a man my hand. So please, if you'll give us a moment, I'm trying to show a man who deserves it, some respect, all right?” said Ricochet.
I think Ricochet would make a killer heel if they banked on his inhuman skills in the ring. Imagine a cocky Ricochet. It would rock.
