Former IWGP World Heavyweight Champion Will Ospreay has announced he has tested positive for COVID-19.
Ospreay made the announcement on Twitter, saying:
“I’m sure I’ll be back in no time so other than that, I hope everyone is well. I can’t go to the RevPro shows this weekend, so unfortunately, you’ll have to deal with only really good wrestling, not the best wrestling, because the best wrestler is currently battling COVID. I’m going to beat COVID and why? Because I am on another level.”
RevPro also posted the following statement:
Will Ospreay has tested positive for Covid-19. He is fully vaccinated, only has mild symptoms & is otherwise healthy. He will be following protocols and will be out of this weekends shows.
He is still expected to be able to compete at September 19th’s High Stakes
Ospreay was scheduled to team with the Young Guns against Brendan White, Doug Williams and RKJ this Sunday.
He returned at NJPW Resurgence last month after vacating the IWGP World Heavyweight Title and being out of action for four months.
We wish Ospreay a safe and healthy recovery.
