Will Ospreay Hints at Possible Match Against Ricochet – After winning the AEW International Championship by defeating MJF at AEW All In 2024, Will Ospreay shared his thoughts on Ricochet’s AEW debut and the potential for a future clash between them.
Ricochet, who made his AEW debut earlier in the night by participating in the AEW Casino Gauntlet, has been linked with Ospreay since their highly acclaimed match at NJPW Best Of The Super Junior XXIII in 2016. The two have had a storied rivalry and history, which adds an intriguing layer to their potential future encounters in AEW.
At the AEW All In post-show press conference, Ospreay was asked about Ricochet potentially challenging him for the AEW International Championship. Ospreay responded:
“Man has got to work for it though. There is a long list of people that he’s going to have to beat before he can call out the International Champion. It’s been eight years since that Best of Super Juniors match and we’ve both gone in our separate directions. We’ve both done well. Now, he’s under this microscope. Maybe, just maybe, I called him out all those times to see if he’s got any bullocks. He’s shown up. I’d like to see what he’s going to be doing in AEW. I’m excited and I’m really happy for him.”
Ospreay’s comments reflect a mix of respect and challenge. He acknowledges Ricochet’s talent and the impact of his AEW debut while emphasizing that Ricochet will need to navigate a competitive landscape before earning a shot at the International Championship. This sets the stage for a potential future showdown between the two, adding another exciting layer to AEW’s evolving storylines.
