Sanchez has over six years of pro-wrestling news writing experience, covering the biggest news stories in WWE, NXT, AEW, TNA Wrestling and more. He has personally interviewed a number of top stars, producing exclusive content with the likes of AEW's Swerve Strickland and WWE's Nick Aldis.

In October, it was announced that Will Ospreay was set to debut for MLW before the end of the year. Michael Reichlin of SE Scoops has since reported that plans for the NJPW star to appear for the promotion are off.

Ospreay has now provided clarification on the report, noting that he still plans to wrestle for MLW, tweeting:

“Lads MLW will happen. Just not when it was meant too. Everyone calm your tits.”

Ospreay will face either Shingo Takagi or Kazuchika Okada for the IWGP World Heavyweight Title on January 5 at WrestleKingdom.

NJPW President Takami Obari has revealed that Ospreay will still be able to compete at the Japanese event, despite the Prime Minister Fumio Kishida introducing COVID-19 travel restrictions while the NJPW star was out of the country.
