AJ Styles’ Reaction to Will Ospreay Using Styles Clash on 7/17 AEW Dynamite

Will Ospreay and MJF delivered a standout performance during the 250th episode of AEW Dynamite on July 17. MJF emerged victorious, claiming the International Title, but not without enduring two Styles Clash moves from Ospreay. AJ Styles has now weighed in on Ospreay’s use of his signature move.

The match between Ospreay and MJF kicked off Dynamite with a bang, featuring a notable spot where Ospreay executed two Styles Clash moves on MJF during their nearly sixty-minute bout. AJ Styles responded to this on Twitter, expressing his thoughts on the matter.

“Why do you think it bothers me that someone else is doing my move? We all do it. It’s wrestling! I think if nothing else, it shows appreciation.”

In another highlight from the match, Ospreay gave a nod to Cody Rhodes by winking at the camera before hitting MJF with a Cross Rhodes. Rhodes has previously acknowledged that he adapted the Cody Cutter from Ospreay’s Os Cutter. Despite these impressive moves, Ospreay ultimately lost the match, with MJF becoming the new AEW International Champion.

In professional wrestling, moves are often shared and adapted among wrestlers. While innovation occasionally introduces new maneuvers, signature moves like the Styles Clash remain impactful and notable, especially when executed in high-stakes matches.
