On a recent edition of the “Battleground” podcast, TNA Wrestling’s newest signee KUSHIDA lavished praise on AEW wrestler Will Ospreay, calling him the best wrestler in the world right now.
KUSHIDA also discussed potential dream matchups with Ospreay and Kazuchika Okada.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On Will Ospreay and a potential matchup: “I don’t want to [laughs]. He is too perfect right now [laughs]. But I call his hairstyle onion. I call him onion-head. I’d love to wrestle him after maybe he’s over 60 years old [laughs]. But yeah, he will probably peak this year maybe, and the next year, as the best-performing wrestler. I think he’s the best wrestler now. But professional wrestling is long…so someday, I want to wrestle him. I want to find the chance.”
On a possible matchup with Kazuchika Okada in TNA Wrestling: Yeah, until now and in the future, it has not been necessary to fight in Japan. B it I feel like there is a possibility in America, so I want to wrestle him.”
As noted, KUSHIDA announced this week that he signed a contract with TNA Wrestling, and he will still be able to compete in NJPW as well. Meanwhile, Will Ospreay signed with AEW earlier this year.
