Inside The Ropes issued the following:
Will Ospreay discussed his recent rivalry with MJF and the fact that they are polar opposites in personality has enhanced their feud over the International/American Championship. While Ospreay remains confident in his abilitiesĀ as a professional wrestler, he did admit that MJF may be struggling with his own place in the wrestling world and that he is constantly seeking to prove the doubters wrong, which may ultimately lead him down a slippery slope:
āI think so. My main thing is I know who I am, but I still feel like heās struggling to know who he is. I know heās got all the accolades under the sun but it feels like heās constantly trying to prove doubters wrong. The moment you do that you almost become like a cat with a piece of string. I could pull this piece of string forever and that cat is gonna keep chasing it, weāre just going to constantly move the goalposts.
So with that in mind, like you said, heās a generational talent, the guyās incredible on the microphone and showed it to everyone. Heās an incredible worker. But the main thing about it is that heās without a doubt one of the best wrestlers in the world. But if anyoneās gonna look at that match and think that itās a foregone conclusion that MJF is better than Will Ospreay, well at the 59-minute mark I feel like he realised that he wasnāt exactly on my level, so he needed to do something cheap to secure the win.
So look, Max is one of the greatest and nothing but respect, in a weird way. But I think heās constantly searching to try and prove doubters wrong, and thatās a slippery slope.ā
