Will Ospreay: Wrestling at AEW All In was life-changing

Wrestling at Wembley Stadium was a life-changing experience for Will Ospreay.

After competing at AEW All In, Ospreay sent out a message on social media reflecting on the moment. Ospreay thanked the fans for all of the support they’ve ever given him. He wrote that it was an honor to represent NJPW, his family, and British wrestling at Wembley.

The gratitude I have for you all that have followed my career throughout this crazy journey is genuinely overwhelming. Last night you & AEW truly changed my life. Honoured not only to represent my family, NJPW but represent British wrestling at Wembley Stadium. Thank you so much for everything.

Ospreay defeated Chris Jericho at All In. In his social media post, Ospreay revealed that his gear for the match featured a list of the British wrestling promotions he’s worked for. Ospreay’s gear included a tribute to his late friend and tag team partner Ryan Smile as well.

Earlier this month, Ospreay announced that the IWGP United States Heavyweight Championship was now the IWGP United Kingdom Championship. Ospreay defending the title against Zack Sabre Jr. has been set up for NJPW Royal Quest III in London this October.

Ospreay has also been announced for October’s Impact Wrestling Bound for Glory pay-per-view.
