Will Ospreay is one of the most critically acclaimed pro-wrestlers in the game these days. The star took on Kota Ibushi in order to secure the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship at NJPW’s Sakura Genesis event last year. Ospreay emerged victorious, but he was sidelined because of a neck injury. That being said, he might not be a bestseller in the merchandise department.

Ospreay has since then come back, and he’s doing great work with his wrestling chops. He has won many championships since his return and even went toe-to-toe with Orange Cassidy at AEW X NJPW Forbidden Door.

Wrestling Banana, a Twitter parody account, posted that Will Ospreay has more 5-star matches in a month than CM Punk, John Cena and Kurt Angle combined do in their whole careers.
