Will Ospreay warns WWE.
The AEW World Champion took part in the post-All Out media scrum after successfully defending the AEW Championship against Jon Moxley in the main event of the show. He was asked how he felt returning to Chicago as a champion on a sold-out event.
Will Ospreay mentioned that it means a lot to him, recalling how people in the past tried to discredit his drawing ability. He claimed that the show was sold out on three matches, including his own match, the triple threat ladder match for the tag titles, and the street fight between The Brawling Birds & Divine Dominion for the women’s tag titles:
There have been so many times where people have put me down ‘Oh, you couldn’t sell out this,’ ‘You couldn’t draw that’ whatever. A lot of those comments happened during such a horrendous time. It was COVID when all those things happened, right. Those buildings were operating on half [capacity], like 50% of the buildings anyway.
Tonight was super, super special to me because it’s the first time, I was on a pay-per-view main event defending the championship and the entire building was sold out on three matches. Sold out on myself and Jon (Moxley), Brawling Birds & Divine Dominion, and the ladder match that happened tonight.
Will Ospreay Warns WWE
The AEW World Champion also commented on WWE trying to hurt the All Out ticket sales with the Worlds Collide event. Without naming the company, Will Ospreay warned the competitors to never step up to them again:
I cannot tell you the pride that I feel because people did have a choice and everyone that came to this show tonight chose the right company. Because we deliver the best pay-per-views. The best professional wrestling. Anytime anyone wants to come and step up to us, here’s the reality for you. We’re gonna knock you down two fucking levels. We are the best pro wrestling in the entire fucking world. Do not fucking step to us ever again.
