Will Ospreay Reveals Which Moment Made Him Want To Join AEW

Will Ospreay has revealed his favorite moment in AEW Dynamite history, noting that it made him want to join the company. The AEW International Champion spoke on the topic for a video celebrating Dynamite’s fifth anniversary and named Jon Moxley’s promo that opened the September 7th, 2022 episode of the show following the infamous All Out 2022 backstage brawl incident.

“My favorite Dynamite moment is where Jon Moxley stepped into the ring and spoke from the heart to the audience about ‘time to be a legend,'” Ospreay said (per Wrestling Inc). “And I sat in a room in Japan looking at the words that he said, and how he rallied the troops and rallied all the fans into continuously believing in AEW.”

He concluded, “From that moment, I knew I wanted to be part of this place, so that is my favorite Dynamite moment.”

AEW celebrates its fifth anniversary with this week’s show.
