You might have noticed that Ricochet recently used ‘The Codebreaker’ during Monday Night RAW. This is a move that has been used for many years by Chris Jericho as one of his finishers.
During a recent episode of his podcast, Chris Jericho revealed that Ricochet texted him and asked about using the move. It turns out that the ‘630’ has been tough for Ricochet to do every day, so he was looking for something else.
Here is what Jericho said on the podcast (h/t to Wrestlezone for the quote below):
“It was starting to hurt him doing it every night so he was looking for something a little less impactful as far as having to do something with the top rope and he asked if he could do ‘The Codebreaker’ and I said, ‘Absolutely, you might want to change the name of it’ and people might think it’s associated with me, but you know, I haven’t been there for two years ‘so here today gone later today.’ Know who used to say that, Jack? David Lee Roth.”
Here is a video of Ricochet using the move on RAW:
I wonder how much, out of 10, Chris Jericho rates @KingRicochet version of the Codebreaker??? #ChrisJericho #Ricochet pic.twitter.com/wjjBXfcHfU
