… Issues Apology
Published
AEW star Ricochet is facing a ton of backlash this week … after he told a woman he’s “glad” she’s battling multiple sclerosis … leading the wrestler to share his regret over the statement.
The exchange went down on March 16 … when the woman appeared to be criticizing the former WWE talent’s acting abilities.
Ricochet then apparently went to her page and read her bio — which shared a motivational line about her experience with the chronic autoimmune disease — because his response made a reference to it.
“I’m glad you got MS,” Ricochet said … which led the woman to reply, “Well if that makes you happy have a great life …”
Ricochet’s insensitive comment has since been deleted … and the woman went private on X.

The wrestler had an apparent change of heart a day later … as he issued an apology.
“I took out my hatred for the IWC [internet wrestling community] on Sandi, and inadvertently others who are effected by MS. She didnt deserve it and for that, I sincerely apologize.”
Ricochet ended his message by vowing to do better moving forward.
