Will Ospreay is a noted fan of the Assassin’s Creed franchise, and he says he has an idea for another themed entrance “down the line.” Ospreay has been vocal about his love of the franchise and used the game as inspiration for his entrance at AEW All In 2024.
The AEW star spoke with Gaming Bible for a new interview and spoke about how game’s influence on his in-ring work, a potential entrance idea and more. You can see the highlights below:
On His Love For Assassin’s Creed:
“My introduction to the series was Revelations. So I played that, fell in love with the older version of Ezio after he’s been through some wars. I hadn’t played the games before. So it was really cool to play that first and then the preludes to find out how Revelations came to be and how Ezio got to that situation. That’s my earliest memory, I had such an awakening in my brain to be like, ‘Oh, I can move like this character, and that’s why I started incorporating parkour into my move-set in pro wrestling.”
On Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag:
“It’s one of my favourite games for the storyline and the character. Ezio is my OG and is the sole reason why I fell in love with the franchise. But getting to play as Edward, and now seeing the graphics updated in this remake, it just reaffirmed to me that he’s one of the coolest assassins. I’ve been playing Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced, the graphics update, the gameplay improvements, and reliving some of those nostalgia pops from the original game. It’s amazing to see how far this modernised version of the game has come.”
On Which Game He Would Want To Get a Remake:
“Ohh, that’s a good one. Can I make improvements, as well? A lot of people didn’t like Assassin’s Creed Syndicate, but I love it. Especially as it’s set in London, so close to my home. If I were able to modernise it for today, not only with its graphics, but also the parkour, combat and abilities. I would love to see that. Also, because I love Assassin’s Creed Revelations so much, I’d have to go with that, along with the whole Ezio trilogy. Oh, and Assassin’s Creed III.”
On the Potential For a New Assassin’s Creed-Themed Entrance:
“Maybe not next month at Wembley, just because we had two real stellar entrances on both All In shows in 2023 and 2024, I don’t want to oversaturate it. If we were to do it again, some strings will need to be pulled, and I do have something in my back pocket related to Black Flag, but I’m saving that for further down the line.”
