Bryan Danielson knew Will Ospreay was good, but he didn’t realise the British star was that good.
When The Aerial Assassin first announced that he would be joining AEW full-time back in November, many had a match with The American Dragon at the top of their dream matches for the British star.
Taking place at AEW Dynasty, the match delivered what many expected and then some with fans believing it could be the best match of the year when all is said and done in 2024.
Recalling his rivalry with Ospreay in an interview with TalkSport, Danielson stated that Ospreay is good at every element of professional wrestling and picks things up so quickly:
“You see how good Will Ospreay is. You see it when you watch him. Then you wrestle him and he’s more incredible than you think. When you wrestle him, I’m like, ‘Oh my Gosh, how is this possible?’ I didn’t know he was going to be that good at interviews. He’s really good at every aspect of wrestling.
“This is one of the hardest things, I think, in wrestling. Interviews that feel authentic. He is a real person who comes out and you can see the emotion on his face. You can see when he’s happy, you can see when he’s down about something. He’s a very expressive person. That’s a skill that has to be cultivated. His ability to learn new skills is unbelievable. I think the world of him.”
