Ricky Starks Discusses Ex-WWE Guys Coming To AEW, Says He Doesn’t Have A Chip On His Shoulder
Ricky Starks has no problem with Ex WWE guys joining AEW as long as they don’t act like they are better than the AEW originals.
Since AEW began in 2019, one of the hot topics regarding the promotion has been their habit of snapping up free agents who previously worked for the WWE. We have seen Tony Khan bring in several stars who used to wrestle in the WWE like CM Punk, Bryan Danielson, Keith Lee and several more.
Speaking to Nick Hausman of Wrestling Inc., Starks was asked whether seeing the promotion sign former WWE stars gives him a chip on his shoulder.
“No, not at all,” he replied. “I don’t believe in having a chip on my shoulder because that makes me a whiny little bitch. But what I do believe in is, these people who come in and the attitude of a higher-than, and we are a less-than, you get what I’m saying? I think it should be noted that there’s a reason those people don’t work there anymore, and we should look at the facts of why.”

Starks would take the deciding pinfall on last night’s edition of Dynamite where Swerve In Our Glory would become AEW Tag Team Champions in a shocking result.
