Ricky Starks Talks Positively About Possibly Leaving AEW, Says He Has No Explanation For Why They’re Not Using Him

The idea of Ricky Starks wrestling elsewhere outside of AEW is something he takes as a compliment.

An “Absolute” compliment.

The AEW star took part in a Highspots virtual signing, during which he spoke about those who believe he will end up in another company besides AEW as something he takes as a compliment when he hears it.

“Honestly, that’s so sweet that people would say that to me,” Starks said. “I think it’s a compliment. A great thing to hear people care about me that much.”

When asked about not being on AEW TV in so long, Starks says he wishes he had a good explanation to offer.

“No. I’m healthy, I’m of sound mind and body,” Starks said. “I’m capable to wrestle. Just, you know, not up to me. I get a lot of messages lately where people are like, hey, just checking in on you. Hope you’re doing well. Hope you’re mentally okay, and it’s so sweet. It means a lot to me because these people don’t know what’s going on, right. But yeah, I get a lot of messages and every time I read ‘em, I tear up. Because people care, you know? I love them. I wish I could give an answer. I’m healthy, I’m ready to get back in the ring. I am in shape obviously, always been in shape. Sometimes it isn’t up to me, I guess.”

Starks continued, “I love wrestling and I’m gonna figure out a way to do it one way or another. I at least think I owe fans some type of explanation to the best of my ability, to the best of my knowledge so, some people don’t want to believe that. I don’t give a f*ck. But, yeah, I wish I had more… a definitive answer but sometimes, darkness is your only friend, when you’re definitely trying to find the light.”
