AEW International Champion “The Aerial Assassin” Will Ospreay spoke with Kenny McIntosh of Inside The Ropes on a number of topics, including his match with top WWE star Drew McIntyre from back in 2017 in WCPW.

Ospreay said, “I remember it super fondly.” “I have nothing but love for Drew and I hope he’s doing well. I haven’t kept in contact with him but I keep up with his work, and hope the same is mutual. If there was ever a chance to throw down I’d happily do it again. I think it was different as well because I had to work as a bad guy.”

“That’s such a different thing for people because obviously when you see my aerial offense it is something that you can’t help but cheer. I had to pick those moments very well with those types of matches, and I had to really dictate the pace of that match so that when I did explode in my aerial offense, it was more out of desperation rather than to get a pop from the audience. It wasn’t difficult to put together because we’d wrestled each other beforehand, but I think it was more along the lines of we wanted to tell a bigger story within that building as well. So it was great, I flipping love wrestling with Drew and I’d happily do it any day of the week.”
