Will Ospreay would like to make the trip to SGW.
Will Ospreay was an early supporter for SoftGround Wrestling in Uganda, helping them fund their goal to get a ring for the viral promotion.
Speaking at the AEW Dynasty press scrum, Ospreay was asked about his contribution.
"That gave me so much joy and happiness to see what they did. It reminds me of when we used to backyard (wrestle). I was lucky enough...my mom saw I was getting in trouble at school. To keep me off the street, she put a wrestling ring in the back garden. It wasn’t about performing to anyone. There was no stress. You just had your best friends around you trying to will yourself on to do some good pro wrestling matches. Seeing that over there, I couldn’t believe the joy and energy they were bringing to something. I see so many people being negative all the time. In a place like this especially where I can’t believe how lucky I am to be here and be part of this roster. To have those fans [at AEW Dynasty], they were ridiculous. I can’t believe how lucky I am. To see people moan, and to see like, they’re wrestling on the ground for fucks sake. To see that and to see their enthusiasm and energy, I want to be part of that too. To be able to go, ‘there you go,’ a little wink and nudge. ‘I’ll see you over there soon lads.’ That’s my dream. Not dream, but my ambition. I really want to go to Uganda and do some wrestling," said Ospreay.
Kenny Omega has also expressed his desire to compete at SGW.
SGW has been making headlines all year with wrestlers around the world taking notice. Maximum Male Models (Mace & Mansoor) made a surprise appearance at a recent show, confronting Lord White.
