Ricochet Calls for Police Action Against Fan Bragging About Pirating AEW Revolution

Ricochet isn’t here for piracy, and he’s making it very clear that illegally streaming AEW Revolution is no joke.

After AEW’s new Prime Video pay-per-view deal caused confusion, Ricochet took to X/Twitter to hype up his upcoming match against Swerve Strickland at Revolution. He posted: “Watch me destroy Swerve on @PrimeVideo this Sunday. 👑”

That’s when a fan jumped in to troll him, replying: “I’m pirating it, Baldy.”

Instead of ignoring it, Ricochet clapped back hard, bringing the law into the mix: “If the police can do something about this pirate, that would be great. He’s admitting to committing a crime.”

While the comment may have been sarcastic, Ricochet clearly wasn’t in the mood to let fans brag about stealing AEW’s biggest pay-per-view of the year.

This all stems from the ongoing confusion surrounding AEW’s new deal with Prime Video. Some fans mistakenly assumed that AEW pay-per-views would now be included with Amazon Prime subscriptions—similar to how WWE Premium Live Events are part of Peacock in the U.S. and WWE Network internationally.

That’s not the case. AEW’s pay-per-views are still paid events, just now available for purchase through Prime Video—the same way UFC sells its pay-per-views on ESPN+. The move gives AEW a wider distribution platform, but it doesn’t mean the shows are suddenly free.

Ricochet already took issue with fans misunderstanding the deal earlier this week when he ripped into people online, saying: “I love how DUMB people are. Apparently, they all forgot what ‘PPV’ means. Lol.”

He continued: “‘I have Prime, so I should be able to watch for free?’ As they rent/buy movies, TV shows, and more. Idiots, man. Idiots.”

Now, with fans not only misunderstanding the deal but outright bragging about pirating AEW shows, Ricochet has made it clear—he’s got zero patience for it.
