Kenny Omega and Will Ospreay are considered two of the best in the pro wrestling business. This is because they paved the way for many other stars to make a name for themselves outside WWE. The two finally faced off against each other for the second time at Wrestle Kingdom 17, where Omega was triumphant. That said, Will Ospreay returned the favor during the Forbidden Door pay-per-view this week. Now it appears Omega broke his silence on the matter.
The Cleaner won the IWGP United States championship back in January, after defeating Will Ospreay in one of the greatest matches in NJPW history. Despite Kenny Omega winning the match, it was made clear that their feud wasn’t finished just yet.
This culminated in a rematch at the Forbidden Door pay-per-view as Kenny Omega defended the IWGP United States Championship against Will Ospreay. It was truly an instant classic match in many ways and fans were at the edge of their seats throughout. In the end, Ospreay ended up beating Omega for the title.
Following the conclusion of the match and his shocking defeat, Kenny Omega took to Twitter and stated that Will Ospreay was the better man between them. He then urged Ospreay to keep the title away from Don Callis.
I lost and Will was the better man tonight. The US belt is in good hands. Keep Don away from it. #AEWxNJPW #forbiddendoor
We will have to wait and see what will become of Kenny Omega following his shocking loss. After all, The Elite’s feud with The Blackpool Combat Club is far from over, especially with Blood & Guts just around the corner.
