Will Ospreay hopes that fans don't give up on New Japan Pro Wrestling.
Ospreay is an AEW talent now, and was recently joined by Kazuchika Okada. Prior to the pair joining the promotion, AEW had also brought in Jay White and Katsuyori Shibata, taking several big names of the last few years from New Japan. This has led many to question what comes next for the promotion, but Ospreay himself hopes fans don't give up on the product.
While speaking on Talk Is Jericho in a recent appearance, Ospreay expressed his curiosity of who New Japan will turn to for their next big star.
"I’m very curious who they’re going with. I guess they’re going to go with Zack now, I think that’s the right decision. The guy is nearly fluent in Japanese. That’s the best thing about it. Finlay is getting a push, deservedly so, he works extremely hard. Even the War Dogs (Gabe Kidd, Alex Coughlin, & Clark Connors. They have guys ready to go. Tsuji [Yota Tsuji] is there, Shota [Shota Umino] is there. They have guys ready to go. I’m hoping people don’t give up on the product. I still want people to be invested in New Japan and enjoy the shows. Jack Perry is going over there, so AEW is still supporting them. That’s what you want in a relationship. You want to be able to know, even though these guys are coming over here, not only can we come back and do spot shows with New Japan, we’ll give you some of our guys to make sure the relationship is all good."
Ospreay is currently scheduled to face off with Bryan Danielson at AEW Dynasty next month in singles action.
