Will Ospreay Names His Cruiserweight Mount Rushmore

Will Ospreay names his Mount Rushmore of wrestling icons who proved that size doesn’t matter.

Ospreay worked his way up from a junior heavyweight to the heavyweight wrestling division in NJPW. Now, he is seen as one of the best wrestlers in the world, regardless of size or weight divisions. Still, Ospreay is grateful for the numerous cruiserweight trailblazers that came before him.

On social media, the former IWGP World Champion named Rey Mysterio, Hayabusa, Naomichi Marufuji, and Dragon Kid as his Mount Rushmore of cruiserweights.
