Will Ospreay comments on one-year anniversary of AEW signing

It’s now been one year since Will Ospreay joined the AEW roster.

On this day in 2023, Ospreay appeared at AEW’s Full Gear pay-per-view and was unveiled as the promotion’s latest signing. It took a few more months until he started with the company full-time, but Ospreay is now fully entrenched as one of the top wrestlers in AEW.

He took to social media today to reflect on the one-year anniversary of his signing. Ospreay said there’s still “so much more” he wants to accomplish in AEW — and he has his sights set on being the promotion’s headlining attraction.

“It’s been 1 full year being All Elite. My gratitude to this fan base, the roster and everyone that makes @AEW possible,” Ospreay tweeted. “Still so much more I want to accomplish in this company and have big goals to be the headliner one day. Thank you for having me.”

Ospreay has held the AEW International Championship twice over the past year, losing the title last month to Konosuke Takeshita. He has yet to win the AEW World title but did challenge for the belt once when Swerve Strickland was champion.

Before signing with AEW, Ospreay spent several years in Japan as one of NJPW’s biggest stars. He had sporadic matches for AEW starting in 2022 as part of the working relationship that exists between the two companies.

This year’s Full Gear PPV will see Ospreay face Kyle Fletcher in a grudge match. It’s taking place in Newark, New Jersey this Saturday (November 23).
