While speaking to AEW Unrestricted, Will Ospreay talked about the viral turnbuckle spot that he took at AEW Revolution.
Ospreay went over Bryan Danielson in a singles match at the show. He said,
“Fuck me, my ass after that match mate. I will say it until the cows come home. That was the most painful thing that has ever happened to me in a match ever. Not enough to stop the match, but my ass was hurting so much, it was flipping blue afterwards. For me, having all that reaction and having all that expectation — even in the pain that I was in going backstage and this giant ice pack and this weird drink that looked like piss. But it’s so lovely again. Then, laying on the flipping table crying like, ah, my ass hurts so much. I felt somebody grab my hand and go, ‘Mr. Ospreay?’ I looked up and it was Ric Flair and I was like, ah! Let me stand back up again like, ‘Yes sir?’ He was just like, ‘You’re everything they’ve said and more.’”
