Ospreay then had some comments about Canadian wrestlers that caught the attention of Kenny Omega. Omega told Ospreay via Instragram.. Good Luck, Will! All but setting the stage for an epic rematch.
These two put on an absolute clinic at Wrestle Kingdom 17 where Omega beat Ospreay to reclaim the IWGP United States Title. Now the rematch will take place on Omega’s home soil of Canada.
That was the first time Ospreay and Omega wrestled in a singles match. Prior to that AEW fans saw Will Ospreay and Aussie Empire meet Omega and the Young Bucks (The Elite) on Dynamite. It was part of the AEW Trios Title Tournament. This was a semifinal match. Omega and Ospreay put together some great spots in that match. The first match in Japan was great, get ready for an even better encore.
Do not be surprised if there is a third match at All-In in London in Ospreay’s home country as well.
This match was finalized Tuesday as part of a double main event for Forbidden Door 2.

“For the last 10 years, I’ve heard people talk about how great you are. How you’re the best wrestler of this generation. But I’ve also heard in interviews you said that you want to wrestle me, that you want to fight me. Watching you, you’re good. I know you’re good. But I am the litmus test of great. You want to wrestle Bryan Danielson? You call yourself the Rainmaker but you step into the ring with me and you’re getting into the fucking desert, and they’re ain’t gonna be no rain.”
Danielson wants the best wrestlers in the world. It was a dream of his to wrestle in New Japan to take on the best. AEW is giving him this opportunity. Now he will get the Rainmaker in Okada who confirmed the match will take place in Toronto n a press conference on Tuesday.
