Will Ospreay will be taking some time off in the near future to heal undisclosed injuries. Ospreay is widely regarded as one of the top independent wrestlers in the world.

“I’m going to honour some of my commitments as a champion in other places, and filling out my duties in touring with NJPW but once I’m in my home country I need to rest.” He urged his fans not to panic, as he’s able to walk and is relatively healthy. “But it comes a point where your body can only take so much and I’m making the adult decision to give my body time to heal.”
