WWE Superstar Seth Rollins has recently praised AEW’s latest signee, Will Ospreay. Ospreay recently joined AEW and had his first match against Konosuke Takeshita at Revolution. This marked his debut match as a full-time wrestler for the promotion.
Will Ospreay, who once had a heated exchange with WWE Superstar Seth Rollins, has recently been praised by Rollins for his success in AEW. During a discussion with Cameron Hawkins for The Ringer, Rollins praised Ospreay as “undoubtedly one of the finest performers globally.” Reflecting on Ospreay’s journey worldwide, he stated, “[Will Ospreay] is absolutely one of the best performers in the world, and I’m happy that he is finally, you know, getting to the very top level in our industry.”
Meanwhile, Seth Rollins faces a significant challenge this weekend at WrestleMania 40, where he is set to have a double-duty schedule. On night one of WrestleMania 40, Rollins will team up with Cody Rhodes to face The Rock and Roman Reigns. On night two, Rollins will defend his WWE World Heavyweight title against Drew McIntyre.
Looking back: Seth Rollins and Will Ospreay’s heated words exchange
Seth Rollins and Will Ospreay were once involved in a heated social media feud. It began in the summer of 2019 with a tweet and escalated into a war of words that generated significant buzz among fans.
It started with Rollins defending WWE’s wrestling as the “best pro wrestling on the planet.” This led to Ospreay’s playful jab, implying he’s the best wrestler in the world.
Rollins responded bluntly, downplaying Ospreay by calling him a “little guy” and suggesting that Ricochet was a better version of him. The exchange escalated when Rollins brought finances into the argument, which received significant backlash from fans.
Rollins eventually apologized for his remarks, which Ospreay accepted. Looking back, it appears that both wrestlers have buried the hatchet, especially with Rollins’ recent remarks praising Ospreay’s success.
