EXCLUSIVE: Will Ospreay On A Potential Relationship With AEW & NJPW

EXCLUSIVE: Will Ospreay On A Potential Relationship With AEW & NJPW

As part of our exclusive interview with the lovely Will Ospreay, we discussed the popular topic of a potential relationship between AEW and New Japan Pro Wrestling. Please check out the full interview with Will here.

We began by asking Will if there was any progression in talks between the two side:

“There’s nothing. I wish I could tell you there is something, but there isn’t.

As part of a follow-up, we asked if he wanted to see a partnership:

Yes and no. Yes because I think that’s what fans want, and I’m a believer in giving them what they want. No, because neither party needs each other. The main reason is, AEW is succeeding, Let’s do this in terms of wrestling and in terms of revenue. I don’t know what AEW makes, I’ve got no idea, but I can only assume that because Tony Khan is behind it it’s doing financially very very well. Especially because they’ve got four more years on TNT, they don’t need to change anything. Keep doing what you’re doing.

New Japan has its highest revenue to date, Regardless of it happening, we are putting on bangers every single big pay-per-view. Does NJPW need AEW? No. Does AEW need NJPW? No. But we can support from the sidelines. I support AEW and I hope they support New Japan. If there was a chance for it to come true and for it to happen, I’d be all for it. I’ll strap up and I’m ready to put in a shift. Until then, I’m supporting from the sidelines, they are all my friends but I’m 100% a New Japan guy.
