Will Ospreay Calls MJF-Britt Baker Incident 'The Most Completely Blown Out Of Proportion Thing I Ever Seen'

Fightful Select published the following report on August 2 regarding the incident and suspension:

Several weeks ago, an argument between Britt Baker and MJF occurred.

The word internally was that Baker exercised frustration about MJF within the women's locker room. Word made it back to MJF, as his girlfriend Alicia Atout was in the room.

The details are "he said she said" at this point, but we're told that there were confrontations between Alicia Atout and Britt Baker, as well as MJF and Baker. At one point Will Ospreay also spoke with Baker. Word was that Baker also took issue with Atout telling MJF about what was said in the locker room. There was a claim from one person in the locker room that Baker cursed at Atout and wanted to kick her out of the locker room for discussing the conversation.

Speaking to Joseph Staszewski of the New York Post, Ospreay didn't comment specifically on the incident and said he did not know exactly what had been reported. He called it “the most completely blown out of proportion thing I ever seen in my entire life.”

He continued, "I am just trying to bring people together as a team. That’s all I can say. I’m fully aware people don’t like each other backstage. I know there are people backstage that I don’t like. My whole thing is that going forward we all need to be a team. We all need to look after one another.”

Ospreay is set to challenge MJF for the AEW American (AEW International) Championship at AEW All In.
