Ricochet Wrestling was just a memory among the many feds that comprised the National Wrestling Alliance, until NWA superstar, Trent Shanahan purchased the rights to the name, and reopened its doors, signing such stars as Earl Brighton, Kid Gorgeous, and Jason Legacy. However, all was not right, as the strain of running a professional wrestling organization and placing the Heavyweight Championship around his own waist began to weigh on the superstar, and after losing the title to Jason Legacy, soon took a sabatical, bringing in Hector Rodriguez, former owner of High Spots Wrestling, as President to run the operation of Ricochet Wrestling. Hector was eager to return to professional wrestling, and brought with him a hand selected Commissioner, Daniel James, to help run things. Hector and Daniel met during their brief run at Roughkut Wrestling, until the entire front office staff was changed under new management. Ricochet Wrestling began their new run, signing more stars, such as Mimic, Michael Cavenaugh, Johnny Royal, and Jack Turney.
On camera things were going great, but behind the scenes things were beginning to unravel. Trent Shanahan quietly transferred ownership to a conglomerate who created a Board of Directors, headed by Michael Lamb, to oversee the the operation of Ricochet Wrestling. Also, the relationship between Hector and Daniel began to fall apart, after Hector was suspended due to his actions that were seen to be embarrasing to Ricochet Wrestling in the eyes of the rest of the NWA. Daniel was placed in control of Ricochet in Hector absence, and Ricochet's ratings and attendance soared through the roof. When Hector returned, he was not happy that many people were considering Daniel to be the reason behind the sudden soaring ratings. Hector soon became jealous, and attempted to convince the board to fire Daniel. However, already unpopular with the board, the plan backfired, and the board fired Hector instead, making Daniel the new President.
More big names were signed, such as David Dunn, Kai Kennedy, and Bryan Willett. The ratings continued to rise, as Ricochet began to travel not just around England, but around the entire United Kingdom, and even eventually through Europe. But once again, backstage turmoil caused problems among Ricochet Wrestling, as Hector Rodriguez used a potential lawsuit to come back as Commissioner, causing the power struggle to once again continue between the two men in charge. After an injury to Daniel James, forcing him from traveling with Ricochet, Hector was in control of things. Many wrestlers were not happy with this situation, as Hector was not accomodating to them at all, and refused to work with them on anything. Hector Rodriguez was finally toppled from power by his own hand, as he began to do several questional actions while in charge, and was finally fired once and for all, but not before Daniel James got a little payback by attacking him at a supercard.
After Hector's firing, Daniel James also turned in his resignation, wanting time away from wrestling. Anthony Rigby, a member of the Board of Directors, became temporary Commissioner, and despite being part owner, many wrestlers were happy with him being in charge, as he has always been fair with the wrestlers. However, it was just temporary, and the board finally named Lefty Muggins as the new Commissioner.
During this time, after a huge argument between Ricochet Wrestling and the NWA Board, Ricochet chose to leave the alliance of the National Wrestling Association. Internally, many of the wrestlers were ready for this change, as several believed that Ricochet could stand on their own two feet. They help spear head the reorganization of the World Wrestling Association, and became a founding fed in the new WWA.
Wrestlers such as Ryan Lust and Adam Heaton were signed to contracts, and Muggins, a former wrestler himself, was considered by many of the wrestlers to be the best Commissioner they have worked for. But Michael Lamb, Chairman of the Board, did not see eye to eye with Muggins, and after a huge argument Lamb fired Muggins on the spot, without board approval. This did not sit well with the rest of the board, specifically Anthony Rigby, who believed Muggins was the perfect man for the job. Rigby, along with Melanie Cohen, sought to do something about it. Buying the remaining shares from the rest of the Board of Directors, along with a surprise silent partner, Daniel James, to force control of Ricochet Wrestling from Michael Lamb, by giving them majority ownership.
With no longer being majority owner, Lamb sold the rest of his shares to the three new owners, and quietly sunk away from professional wrestling. They quickly brought back in Lefty Muggins to be Commissioner and started a new chapter in Ricochet's life, renaming it to Ricochet Pro Wrestling, and starting with a new direction, heading across the Atlantic Ocean, leaving the United Kingdom, and starting an annual rotation between the United Kingdom and the Eastern United States, having new headquarters both in London, England and in Daniel James's office of operations in Sueno Beach, Florida.
