Ricochet isn’t just here to make an impact in AEW—he’s out to prove he’s a level above Swerve Strickland. With their highly anticipated match set for next week in Atlanta, he’s making a statement by facing AR Fox on the January 29 edition of AEW Dynamite—just days after Strickland did the same.

Tony Khan took to X to confirm the match, adding another layer to the growing rivalry between Ricochet and Strickland. The former WWE star isn’t just stepping into AEW—he’s stepping right into a fight to prove who truly reigns supreme in the ring.

AEW Dynamite (1/29) Lineup:

  • Jeff Jarrett vs. Claudio Castagnoli – If Jarrett wins, he gets an AEW World Title shot
  • Will Ospreay vs. Brian Cage

  • MJF to speak

With Ricochet and Swerve’s showdown just a week away, this matchup with AR Fox could set the tone for what’s to come. Can Ricochet one-up Strickland and send a message before their highly anticipated collision?
