#3 Mark Henry wants Ricochet to get suspended
Ricochet and Logan Paul have been embroiled in a bitter feud for months. They squared off at The Biggest Party of the Summer, where The Maverick emerged victorious.
Following the win, Paul mocked the RAW Superstar's real-life partner, Samantha Irvin, as the latter was forced to announce the YouTube sensation as the victor. The angle made their feud highly personal.
"I want [Ricochet] to go off!"👀
@TheMarkHenry gives a passionate plea to @davidlagreca1 & @bullyray5150 for @KingRicochet to go OFF on @LoganPaul for getting @SamanthaTheBomb involved in their feud.

On a recent episode of the Busted Open podcast, AEW personality Mark Henry said he wants to see Ricochet get suspended as part of the storyline. He also explained how the potential angle could play out:
"I wanna see him [Ricochet] go so off that they have to clear the locker room, he gets arrested, and the WWE suspends him. I want him to go off! If Ricochet cannot take himself to that place with somebody talking sh*t about his woman, never gonna happen."
#2 Kenny Omega wants Stephen Amell to wrestle in AEW
S2 of Heels starring my old pal @StephenAmell is off to an incredible start! Great drama and the in-ring action is right up there too. Might be time for him to show AEW what he can do in front of live crowds again. He’s always got a spot by my side.
Hollywood star Stephen Amell is not only a great actor but a decent pro wrestler. Amell showcased his talent in WWE when he and Neville (Pac) took on Stardust and King Barrett at SummerSlam 2015.
Amell recently starred in season two of Heels. Meanwhile, Kenny Omega took to Twitter to praise the actor and asked him set foot inside an AEW ring soon.
“S2 of Heels starring my old pal @StephenAmell is off to an incredible start! Great drama and the in-ring action is right up there too. Might be time for him to show AEW what he can do in front of live crowds again. He’s always got a spot by my side.”
Amell is also close friends with WWE Superstar Cody Rhodes. They shared the ring eight years ago at The Biggest Party of the Summer. The Hollywood star narrated Rhodes' recent documentary, American Nightmare: Becoming Cody Rhodes.
