AEW star Orange Cassidy recently spoke with WHO 13’s Mark Freund on a number of topics including how he hasn’t forgotten about the International Championship.
Cassidy said, “I have not forgotten about the International Championship. Every time I hear, ‘International Championship’ from one of our announcers, I get a little something inside of me that’s like, ‘That should be mine.’”
On Will Ospreay as the current champion:
“Unfortunately, it’s being held by the best professional wrestler in the world right now. You talk about that night [when Cassidy faced Will Ospreay at AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door], I almost had him. I just hope he’s ready for the rematch because I’ve been thinking about it a lot.”
On Ospreay being a wrestling savant:
“He’s a savant of wrestling. He does everything so effortlessly and perfect. It kind of makes you frustrated about how a person could exist that can just immediately get something. I think the thing that Will Ospreay embodies in his wrestling is, it’s exciting. Everything he does is exciting and suspenseful. So yeah, I don’t want to talk about him that much because I’m still upset he has my championship.”
