Big Will Ospreay update (Patreon)

A huge name is backstage at AEW Dynamite…but isn’t planned for the show.

But it’s good news.

Fightful Select’s Sean Ross Sapp has learned that Will Ospreay is scheduled to be backstage at AEW Dynamite. Specifically, we were told that Ospreay isn’t planned for tonight’s show as of now, but is planned for something else. He’s due to start getting checked out by AEW medical for a potential return. It’s very early in the process, but it’s good news for many that expected him to be out for a full year.

We haven’t heard of a specific timetable for Ospreay’s return, but AEW has hoped that he could be factored into plans by March. Fightful was told around Ospreay’s Wrestle Kingdom appearance that he wouldn’t be sidelined as long as many neck injuries would indicate to many.
