Will Ospreay honored Mad Kurt and had a buzzworthy staredown with Bryan Danielson.
Will Ospreay headlined the March 6 episode of AEW Dynamite as he faced ROH World Television Champion Kyle Fletcher, his stablemate in The Don Callis Family. The two stars have plenty of history, as they were also stablemates in United Empire. They battled it out in a hard-fought match, and the former RevPro standouts threw everything they had at each other.
In one highlight, Ospreay paid tribute to "Mad Kurt" Kurtis Chapman, who passed away at the age of 26 in December 2023. Ospreay danced and dabbed in honor of the late RevPro star, who was the reigning Cruiserweight and Arthouse Champion at the time of his passing.

Ospreay went on to score the victory as he pinned Fletcher with a Hidden Blade. He showed his respect for Fletcher after the match, and Don Callis joined the celebration, which was interrupted by the arrival of Bryan Danielson. Danielson came to the ring and stared down Ospreay as the show came to an end.
What does Bryan Danielson want with Will Ospreay?!
