During a recent interview with Tokyo Sports, New Japan Pro Wrestling star Will Ospreay commented on who he’d like to face in the future, possibly facing Seth Rollins, and more.
You can check out some highlights from the interview below:
On future opponents: “I have a list of opponents I want to fight, but the real problem is how many wrestlers have the confidence to beat me, who is at the peak of my life. It is important that a player who is worthy of me comes forward. Right.”
On possibly wrestling WWE stars: “It looks like Nakamura (Shinsuke) is going up to Noah, WWE will send different wrestlers to New Japan, and AEW wrestlers who fought each other in “Forbidden Door”… I don’t think it’s a bad idea to play with someone who has a different hair color than before. I’ve mentioned Seth Rollins’ name many times, and I’ve been approached by them, so I have a lot to think about. Also, considering my history, it would be a dream to fight Ricochet again. I think that because I think we have become completely different wrestlers than when we fought in the past.”
On that match being closer than ever: “I think we are at a turning point right now, and in the past I have spoken with people from WWE that it would be great if we could have a dream match that transcends the boundaries of the organization in the future. I don’t think so, and I always have a desire to test my true ability. I have the same respect for wrestlers I face in the ring, regardless of which group they belong to. It’s not an exaggeration to say that I’ve been influenced the most by Marufuji. I want to fight him. However, I personally hope that the political problems of each group will gradually disappear.”
