Will Ospreay Fires Back at Critics Over Lighter Schedule After 2024 Double or Nothing Victory

Will Ospreay has issued an open challenge to any wrestler in the world who believes they are the best, inviting them to compete for the AEW International Championship.

During the post-Double or Nothing 2024 media scrum, where Ospreay emerged victorious over Roderick Strong to claim the title, he was asked about his thoughts on family during the match. Ospreay emphasized that his family is always on his mind and remains the most important part of his life. He also addressed critics of his lighter work schedule, challenging them to find anyone who matches his level of performance:

“I think about my family in every decision I make. They are the most important aspect of my life. Yes, more time with my family was a key reason I took this job, but also becoming one of the best professional wrestlers on the planet. Some people overlook that and think I’m not working as hard. If you can show me a wrestler working at the same level as I am, be my guest. This is something I’m very firm about and proud to say.”

Ospreay also discussed leveraging AEW’s partnerships with other wrestling companies worldwide as the International Champion. He asserted that under his reign, the International Title is the best wrestling title globally and invited anyone who thinks they can outperform him to step up:

“I’m inviting any professional wrestler willing to challenge me for this championship. Right now, this title has a lineage as a workhorse title, and in my hands, it is the best wrestling title in the world. If you believe you are the best wrestler, I dare you to come forward. I’ve got the keys to the forbidden door, and it’s tough to break through.”

With Will Ospreay now holding the AEW International Championship, the wrestling world is buzzing with excitement. His open challenge to any wrestler who thinks they are the best promises some thrilling matches. By working with AEW’s global partners, Ospreay aims to make the International Title the best in the world.
