Will Ospreay New Japan Star and former IWGP World Heavyweight Champion and openly called out three of All Elite Wrestling’s biggest stars — AEW World Champion Kenny Omega, Bryan Danielson, and CM Punk. Ospreay openly called out Punk to a match back when he won New Japan’s top prize earlier this year (this was still before Punk made his comeback to wrestling) and recently traded shots With AEW’s Champ on social media, but Osprey is now saying he will embarrass all three.
In an interview With SEScoops Ospreay expressed his interest in getting his hands on the AEW stars.
“I would still love that match with CM Punk, He’s the one that called me out. He said, ‘I want to wrestle Will Ospreay.’ So with that, Bryan Danielson, he said ‘I want to wrestle Will Ospreay’ and I get it. Kenny Omega wants to wrestle Will Ospreay. Take a ticket and I’ll get to you when I get to you guys. They called me out. Sammy Guevara, he’s another one that called me out.”
“There’s a list that goes on and on and on. They all call me out and there’s a reason why. Because when Big Match Billy is in town, their stock goes up. Everyone that wrestles me – and you can’t deny it – every single person that wrestles me ups their game because they know they’re going to be in the ring with one of the best wrestlers in the world right now. So, I completely understand it.”
Ospreay continued and seems very open to appearing for AEW:
“If you guys really want it that bad, you know what to do. You just gotta call my number and I’ll show up. I’ll show up. But 9 times out of 10, these guys don’t want me to show up. Because A, I’ll embarrass them. I’ll embarrass them.”
“Guys like Bryan Danielson made a living being one of the best wrestlers in the world. But if I showed up, he would not last in the ring with me. Kenny Omega was THE guy in New Japan Pro Wrestling. He left. I took over. Nobody could compete with me in 2019. If I got in the ring with him, I’d embarrass him.”
“CM Punk called me out when he wasn’t a wrestler. So in that case, he was keeping an eye on me the entire time, looking at me and thinking I’m a challenge – and damn right, I’m a challenge. I’m THE challenge. So, if those guys want it, I’m ready. But, you guys hit me up. I didn’t hit none of you guys up.”
We will have to wait and see if Ospreay will ever enter the forbidden door.
