Kyle Fletcher has stepped out of the shadow of Will Ospreay in the past month, shaving his head and changing up his look.
Fletcher is only 25 years old and looking to carve his own in the sport.
Speaking on CHGO, Fletcher was asked who his influences were growing up watching wrestling.
Fletcher first named Jeff Hardy as the person he became attached to, and then Justin "Thunder" Liger as the person who got him into NJPW.
His final name was, "Kenny Omega. He is someone that, he might be, in my books, the greatest in-ring performer of all-time. I still, to this day, will go back and watch his Tokyo Dome main event with Tanahashi. I'll go back and watch his matches with (Kazuchika) Okada, his matches with (Tomohiro) Ishii. I'm in awe, and every single time, I'm like, 'Ah man.' I'm gobsmacked. Kenny, to this day, is the one I can go back and watch and always enjoy."
Fletcher has faced Omega multiple times in AEW, most notably in a singles bout on the October 18, 2023 episode of AEW Dynamite.
Elsewhere during the interview, Fletcher commented on his "thigh debut." You can find his full comments by clicking here.
