WWE Covers Ricochet’s Twitter Feud With Current NXT Star

The WWE Performance Center’s latest talent acquisition, Ricochet, is already making his presence felt at the facility, as he and one half of the Street Profits, Montez Ford, traded shots on Twitter.

WWE.com has since picked up on the Twitter feud, and published the following, and the company is using Ricochet’s real name, Trevor Mann:

Trevor Mann has been at the WWE Performance Center for less than a week, but the acclaimed new recruit appears to already be locked in competition with his fellow athletes in Orlando, Fla. — at least in the weight room.

WWE PC Strength & Conditioning Coach Sean Hayes led NXT Superstars through a Hercules-inspired upper-body workout today, and as a video posted on NXT’s Twitter account reveals, the regimen was a grueling one.

Following the sweat session, Mann — who’s seen in the video doing a set of chin-ups with weighted chains wrapped around him — couldn’t help but take a playful (we think) jab at The Street Profits, suggesting he showed Montez Ford and Angelo Dawkins “how it’s done.”

Never one to let a salvo go unanswered, Ford offered a little context in his response to the WWE PC newcomer:

Following the workout, Mann was overheard saying that he’s coming for the Combine crown in 2018, a reference to NXT’s annual strength-and-conditioning Combine, a competition in which Ford has always been one of the top performers. Could a budding rivalry between the two athletic wonders be shaping up before our very eyes?

I had to show @MontezFordWWE and @AngeloDawkins how it’s done!!

I’m sure @ApolloCrews knows EXACTLY what I mean. https://t.co/x8zHNgpJzx
