“Will is a European wrestler and he’s a great technician, I love his work. I think he’s gonna be a great addition to that company. AEW is like the Wild West, they are doing some crazy-ass matches, but this guy will keep them contained. He will keep them sticking with the old-school technique wrestling, which is what I like and I think Will Ospreay is one of the better ones to do that.”
