Ricochet Vs Konosuke Takeshita Announced for AEW Full Gear – A new title match has been confirmed for this Saturday’s AEW Full Gear, as AEW International Champion Konosuke Takeshita will defend his title against Ricochet. The two have been embroiled in a heated rivalry ever since October’s WrestleDream event, where Kyle Fletcher’s attack on Will Ospreay helped Takeshita claim the title in a three-way match also involving Ricochet. Since then, Ricochet has relentlessly pursued Takeshita across North America, even making a surprise appearance at Maple Leaf Pro Wrestling’s debut weekend.
The animosity between the two has only grown, with the two competing in multiple tag team bouts, including an intense eight-man tag match this past Wednesday. Their escalating rivalry has set the stage for this highly anticipated singles encounter.
This marks Takeshita’s third defense of the AEW International Championship, though it will be his first title defense in AEW since his victory. Ricochet, on the other hand, comes into the match with a perfect 7-0 record in straight singles bouts in AEW, giving him significant momentum heading into Full Gear.
With both competitors bringing distinct styles—Takeshita’s powerhouse approach and Ricochet’s aerial brilliance—this title match is set to be a high-octane contest that could shift the balance in AEW’s competitive landscape. Fans are eagerly awaiting this exciting showdown between two of AEW’s brightest stars.
