Will Ospreay Wants to Help Run Historic Women\'s Wrestling Event

ByThomas LowsonProfessional Wrestling Journalist

Will Ospreay has established himself as a bonafide star in he ring, but now he’s ready to show what he can do as a promoter. Speaking to Grapple Theory, Ospreay shared his ambitious plans for Pro Wrestling: Eve, a British independent women’s wrestling promotion.

I think the European largest gate for a women’s show is held by Eve at 1,000 people. I want to break that record and I have the resources with AEW and Ring of Honor. I have the relationship with Stardom that I have and myself and Dan [Read, EVE co-founder] really want to collaborate.

While women’s wrestling was once treated as little more than titilation in the west, massive strides have been made in recent years. Ospreay is thrilled that his plans for Pro Wrestling: EVE come at a time when women are treated much fairer with their male counterparts.

I think a lot of women’s wrestling now is coming to the forefront and the women can do things just as good as the guys if you’re giving them the time.
