Will Ospreay on his Kenny Omega match, Seth Rollins, and his secret “superpower”

[@edes01]

Will Ospray’s match against Kenny Omega at Wrestle Kingdom was absolutely amazing. He is definitely someone who elevates the sport.

[@usmzn]

Yeah, but I’m getting real sick of them putting Omega over Ospreay.

[@usmzn]

@@tatsumikey-2420 Wdym “?” Lmao

[@CurrentSoulKing]

@@usmzn that's part of the story dawg, this will just make billy goat's big win even more massive

[@akadvcyoubeezy6748]

@@usmzn stfu & enjoy the story. They're building that moment up. So when Ospreay beats Kenny it's actually SPECIAL. Much like when Kenny FINALLYY beat Okada. It's a true passing of a torch moment. & uts something Kenny & Will have been working towards for yearss. But hey, you're probably 1 of the people who don't realize Will & Kenny are Great Friends in real life.

[@drinkofwater3753]

Hope he shows up at the royal rumble. But probably won't him or jay White because I don't think aew needs them WWE does

[@skywardbound67]

I love Will Osprey's attitude in interviews. You hear him go from intense and firey, to cool and goofy, talking about guilty purchases, it's so great.

[@glenchapman5984]

Just summed up any conversation with a Brit essentially. Particularly use of the C bomb.

[@litlightninmqueen]

As teenager struggling with being on the spectrum and having such a deep love for wrestling I feel so normalised hearing him talk about his own experiences and can't express how grateful I am for this interview💗

[@anthonyriley1822]

I'm glad Will spoke up about the difficulties getting a diagnosis for autism in the UK. It's absolutely ridiculous, considering it affects such a large % of the population.

[@MrEmpireBuilder0000]

Instant fan of the guy since Forbidden Door. Just an amazing athlete.

[@sph3re]

He's been amazing well before Forbidden Door, too. You've got so much to see, omg I'm excited for you Go check out his match against Ricochet, it's free on KZbin.

[@TheLATigress]

Me too he just elevated that show

[@anD_halfwayCrook]

check his stuff before forbidden door. He even had a great match against Rey Mysterio

[@V1LL1N]

I love how BOTH Will & Renee have become WAY bigger than any one promotion or organization, and they have grown fabulously into some of Pro Wrestlings' shiniest gems and have come to be woven into its very fabric for decades now...WOW...Your work and commintment has not gone unnoticed!

[@danielgoodman674]

@@KumGuzz69 you sound like a casual Lmao anyone who really loves wrestling has seen or heard of these 2 n then to actually see how good they are it’s another level of appreciation

[@trentonjones7550]

You’re reaching by a long shot with Renee lmao. Nobody cared when she debut in AEW, nor did we care when she was with WWE. She’s a good journalist for the sport, but she’s not who anybody tunes into any shows for

[@JohnDoeDeMondo]

Love how Renee gets a good, in depth conversation with her guests. Feel like a fly on the wall.

[@anthonye.2553]

I love her and Joe Rogans interview style.

[@Qtipz123]

Renee and Chris Van Vliet. Both of their interview styles feels like a normal conversation with a friend and not an interview at all. I love it

[@TheLATigress]

One of the best interviews she's ever done and i love how they were having a blast doing it. Will Ospreay is a once in a life time generational talent. Love him so much.

[@austinwood8551]

My only issue it seemed alot like recruitment instead of a not a normal interview

[@vishnuvardhanreddykona]

loved him in the interview... Seeing his personal side is intriguing... Professionally, one of the best pro wrestler out there! Respect towards his dedication & work.

[@grisbyspawn7743]

Will seems like such a nice guy ….so humble

[@jordancarson7435]

LOVE Ospreay! He is absolutely incredible in the ring!!

[@TheE9J]

I discovered Ospreay last year at WK16, the first WK I've watched in full and I immediately became a fan. The in-ring is on point, his talent on the mic is captivating, I've been following everything from him since January 2021 (with some BackToTheFuture trips of course) and what a banger! I can't wait to see the future for him, especially involving World Gold around his waist. Oh, and thank you Renee for all your great interviews! Can't wait for 2023 2 🐐🐐

[@BrynHarding]

Myself and Will are the same age and from the same place (we don't know eachother 😅) It's always really surreal listening to him in interview outside of character because he could just be one of the lads back home down the pub! Great interview, loved the energy.

[@pjr238]

I’ve loved Will since his WCWP World Cup days. The fact he’s the most British lad to be on the circuit too is what makes him the best wrestler on the planet today. Kenny may be the final boss, but Will is the realest geezer in pro-wrestling

[@forrestf9364]

I’ve been to multiple wrestlemanias. Probably 50 wrestling shows. The best wrestling match I’ve ever seen live was him and Amazing Red in the Super J Cup. From the entrances to the final speech - an absolutely perfect match.

[@anthonye.2553]

Will is the fucking man. He’s the type of guy you look at and just want to be friends with him. Famous or not. And as usual, Renee killed it in this interview.

[@HeOfTheBeginning]

Will is so relatable. I love how he evolved and I just hope he doesn't get many more major injuries, because the stuff he does is very brutal to his body

[@1307PSON]

Love Will. One of the best in the world today and so proud that he's a Brit. Great interview Renee

[@jamesmccain4748]

Love your interview with Will.He is awesome wrestler.

[@bythebeardofmatt]

Can't tell if Will Ospreay is such a wonderful soul or Renee is such a wonderful interviewer.

[@RenEffect]

Yes.

[@Ecniv19]

I wish to see Will and Kenny square off again. I was all hyped regardless of Kenny's win. Will's performance and dedication to everything means so much to all wrestling fans. Huge respect.

[@hailhydra91]

One of the few good things about the pandemic and being stuck at home in 2020 was that it gave me a chance to do a deeper dive into Will Ospreay's career since I was casual NJPW watcher before 2020 and now he is probably my favourite wrestler on the planet.

[@ImageNationProject]

Will saying he failed with promos and is getting a ''little'' better with promos, dude.... his promo at the presser with Kenny was fucking amazing!

[@pamjordan5238]

We in New York love Will Osprey, such a wonderful Beautiful honest and open interview with Rene, who herself is so charming. I am a NJPW SUBSCRIBER and will remain so.

[@itssparticus]

I'm 20 mins in and its already one of my fave wrestling interviews ever. He's such a GOAT!!

[@Krayziebone87]

Great episode! Ospreay been top 3 in the world for a while now! Incredibly talented.. met him in 2016 also! Good dude.

[@philmorgan5233]

This just became my favourite interview. 🙂🙂

[@nsogre]

Thank you for this one. Will is like Jay White for me. Just found out about him in the last couple of years. Definitely, one of the best wrestlers today.

[@sagbag856]

he's really humble and prides himself on the company he works for. i hope njpw keeps him longer hes an ace. not that i wouldnt want to see him in other places. but just you know. njpw to him represents something and i like that spirit.

[@hothotheat3000]

Look at him wearing the wrestling club hoodie!

[@jasonwood999]

Always loved Ospreys work, awesome to see hims a top bloke as well. Keep up the good work mate.

[@jeffery44]

Was there for his first AEW match. Ospreay is awesome. Match was amazing.

[@stevenjohn6785]

What a fuckin lad he is. Down to earth and cool af. Not to mention probably the best wrestler in the world right now

[@theonetheonlyjoey]

Legend, love to see an Essex boy succeeding in life EDIT: Just heard him talking about mental health and he's not wrong about the waiting lists being fucking long in England, takes months at least to actually get seen by somebody when you're trying to get any kind of help. The NHS is great but it needs to do better with mental health

[@kayehemming4644]

Mental health care is terrible, you are right. Unless someone reaches the end of the road and acts on it you don't get help. Post pandemic more people have mental health issues and nothing is being done.

[@johnappleseed3800]

As a person who’s on the road to being a licensed social worker wanting to help people with mental health issues, the pandemic skyrocketed the importance of mental health and the amount of people wanting to seek help, all the while actual people able to help has dwindled due to being overworked into fatigue from the field. It’s going to take a minute at least here in the states but I can assume that’s the case everywhere else as mental health has been a taboo for years until recently

[@theonetheonlyjoey]

@Hysondj 100% agreed mate

[@billcowan5539]

Will Ospreay and Kenny Omega set the Bar so high with that Amazing match! They are two of the Very Best in the World and I can’t wait for the rematch 🙏

[@glenchapman5984]

Exciting they were holding back as well. Omega gets the win at Forbidden door and Ospreay tops him at the next WK en route to Will finally beating Okada.

[@stevekasan1575]

My Guy rocking the Zubaz! Great interview with a hell of a performer and im glad Ospreay touched about the travelling & restrictions we forget that not just there is COVID but also this War happening. Hearing this is insane!

[@mattwilkinson5605]

I was waiting to hear bruv! Will is great, a top talent, an absolute credit to NJPW

[@sailorcarmie]

Loved this session. Thank you! ❤

[@Helzakath]

He just needs someone to practice acting and writing promos with to gain that confidence and spark more than anything else, the promos will come naturally after that. I suffered the same learning difficulties as a child, growing up finding it difficult to explain why I'm so awkward and why I struggle with "normal" things. What he has accomplished despite that is truly amazing, inspiring. I still get frustrated trying to explain what's wrong with me and I'm 33, no diagnosis.

[@TheDjcorey19]

Welcome to 2024. Ospreay, Danielson was everything we thought it would be

Wrestling Kingdom was the first full Ospreay match that I watched, and that post match promo was just spectacular.

[@stu_gibson]

Im a big supporter of Ospreay, he's an incredible wrestler, already one of the best in the world. I hope that the match with Omega is the first of a trilogy, maybe culminating with Ospreay winning the belt back at Forbidden Door 2.

[@bunaldiaries6418]

I feel like Will Ospreay is my spirit animal. I just can't stop swearing, it's like if I don't swear in an hour or so, I'd be fucking dead. Lololol.

[@kayehemming4644]

Just love Renee's interviews. She remembers everything even down to Will giving her a recipe that he didn't remember giving her. Love watching Will wrestle and great to see someone from my home country doing so well. ( Although Mox will always be number 1 for me.) Re diagnosis. If you have ADHD and dyslexia you are more than likely on the spectrum. My daughter is and your attitude re Being 'normal' is overrated is a great one to have. My daughter has hated being different.

[@EliteActionWrestling]

“How much of a mind fuck was it for you”-Renee “oh wait can I swear”-ospreay. Lol

aw, hearing him talking about his dyslexia, autism and adhd like it was a shameful thing, is heart breaking. i totally get that. im glad hes come to terms with it and is using it as an advantage

[@RealPearlMania]

It's kinda sad that people only discovered Ospreay since Forbidden Door, but at least those people know who he is. I've been a fan of Will's wrestling for many many years. He's a top guy and a hell of a talented and incredible athlete. Huge GG for continuing the Wrestle Kingdom 17 match after his fall onto the exposed turnbickle forehead first.

One other thing that really hurt NJPW was all the takedowns of the pro-NJPW channels like RealNeatPuro, Showbuckle and Octopus Stretch that really helped bring newcomers or casual fans to the product. When they all got taken down, the only ones left where the Joseph Montecillio, Forest Sowwa, Sooplex crowd who are lukewarm at best on the company, and even THEY eventually stopped talking about it. The old Pro-NJPW you tube crowd really helped keep fans up to date on all the great things happening.
