Wrestling at Wembley Stadium was the coolest thing Will Ospreay has ever done.
This August, Ospreay defeated Chris Jericho at AEW All In London. It was a significant moment for Ospreay and for pro wrestling in his home country of England. After the show, Ospreay got a tattoo commemorating the moment. It includes All In’s paid attendance number (81,035).
In a new interview with Comicbook.com, Ospreay reflected on what All In meant to him. Ospreay revealed what was going through his head when his music hit:
Oh man, I was scared. I just remember feeling like I’ve done it now. The maximum I’ve ever performed in front of was 40,000 at Wrestle Kingdom. This was twice as many. I was worried that my stuff was going to get lost, or not as big of a reaction as what it could get. Maybe I’m not the guy that they really want in this position. Maybe it should have gone to someone else. That’s all going through my mind.
The moment the music was playing, just that bit of the piano, I could just feel my heart coming out of my chest. So flipping scared. Family’s here. Everyone is here just wanting to just enjoy wrestling in England, wrestling of this caliber and stage.
Ospreay noted that it felt like everything was going in slow motion as he made his entrance. Ospreay said All In is the coolest thing he’s ever done in his career.
Going out and hearing people sing my song… man. I literally heard people screaming it and then pointing up to the sky and when the fireworks were going off. Just watching it, it felt like two minutes. It felt like everything was going in slow motion. Then to get in the ring and the bell rung and then just 80,000 people do the ‘Olé!’ chants. Oh man, it was just the coolest thing. It was the coolest thing I’ve ever done.
Ospreay was also in action at AEW’s WrestleDream pay-per-view last month. He teamed with Konosuke Takeshita & Sammy Guevara in a victory over Jericho, Kenny Omega & Kota Ibushi.
With his NJPW contract set to expire in February, Ospreay is an impending free agent. Ospreay has said he’s looking to explore every single option in contract talks.
Ospreay is facing Jon Moxley and David Finlay in a three-way match at NJPW Wrestle Kingdom on January 4. The winner will receive a new championship that NJPW is creating to replace the IWGP US/UK Championship.
