Will Ospreay wrestled his first match in AEW as a full-time talent at AEW Revolution 2024 and showed the world why he is considered one of the best in ring talent in all of wrestling. People are already calling his fight with Konosuke Takeshita a match of the year contender and Ospreay is aware that he has set the bar pretty high for himself.
The former IWGP Heavyweight Champion took part in the post-Revolution media scrum after his big win. When asked how he's feeling after the bout, Ospreay praised Takeshita and mentioned that he's got a lot of work to do now:
I mean I've got a lot to top now, haven't I? Once again, I can't do those type of matches without a great partner to do it with. Takeshita is every bit as good as Will Ospreay. Just on that night I was just better, pure and simple. But look at the move that I had to put him away with - the tiger driver.
I keep saying this so much the tiger driver 91 is the most dangerous move in wrestling. It was used back in the day by Mitsuharu Misawa. It is one of the most dangerous moves in wrestling. Some guys were able to kind of figure out a way of getting out of it but it's complete pressure on your neck man. It's a sheer drop. I won't be surprised if in five months’ time people will be like 'Hey you can't do that move anymore'
Most Dangerous Man In Wrestling: Will Ospreay
Will Ospreay noted that he is a very lovely man outside of the ring. When it comes to wrestling, however, the former champion claimed that he is 'a mean motherfucker':
But this is what I bring to the table man. I'm one of the most dangerous professional wrestlers in the world. I'm a lovely man. I'll walk your mom across the street any day of the week. I will happily give you a cuddle if you are ever feeling sad. I'm always a good shoulder to cry on and I will look after you till the day I die but I am one mean motherfucker when I want to be.
That's all I care about man. This is the first PPV of AEW this year, 2024. Right so we got Dynasty, we've got Forbidden Door, Double or Nothing, All In, All Out, WrestleDream, Full Gear, and Worlds End. That's the first one. Like I said, the most dangerous man in wrestling right now bruv.
