EXCLUSIVE: Will Ospreay Talks Difference Between WWE And AEW

Will Ospreay was kind enough to sit down and speak with us about a variety of topics. One of those topics was the differences he sees between WWE and All Elite Wrestling. We encourage you to check out our full exclusive interview with Ospreay, it is well worth your time.

Here is the full quote:

“I think Bryan from the Wrestling Observer said this. If you pay attention to WWE, sometimes you are not rewarded. But if you pay attention to what the Elite boys did with that tag match at Revolution – every call back, like Adam doing the chicken wing and Matt and Nick doing the Golden Trigger and Hangman doing the One-Winged Angel. If you pay attention, you are rewarded. AEW rewards its fans.

We’ve been in this mindset for so long that it’s just WWE. After WCW, we went ‘oh it’s just WWE now’. That was all it was, we just settled with it. It’s weird like WWE sometimes knocks it out of the park like McIntyre winning the Rumble. What a good idea. And sometimes like that Hell in a Cell match you’re ‘like what are you doing?’ You’re like ‘why, why did you do this to wrestling?’

You watch AEW and you are like this is fantastic. It’s brilliant. I love every single minute of it. I’m over the moon that Bea loves every single minute of it. Every time she comes back she’s like ‘I had so much fun, Kenny is awesome to work with, Cody is awesome to work with, Matt and Nick are the loveliest human beings of all time.'”

There you have it. Of active workers in the business today, Ospreay is someone whose advice should be valued highly.
