A press conference was held recently where Will Ospreay issued a match challenge with the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship on the line against CM Punk.
This was right after he called out former WWE Champion Drew McIntyre to a match. Punk stated last March that while various things would have to line up perfectly, he would be interested in wrestling Ospreay.
“I would love to have an IWGP World Heavyweight Champion vs. WWE World Heavyweight Champion between two British men and find out who the best wrestler is out of them,” Ospreay said. “And not only that, before I was the IWGP World Heavyweight Champion, a man who sparked a whole industry of getting the wrestling world interested in him named CM Punk was interested in facing Will Ospreay.
“Well now I have the biggest prize in pro wrestling. So if you really are wanting to prove to yourself that you’re the best in the world, where in my opinion, you were probably the best of a bad bunch, come over to here and come take this (Ospreay points to the IWGP World Heavyweight Title) because no one’s going to be able to take this from me.”
