Kevin Knight: Will Ospreay Is One Of One, Nobody’s Touching Him

Kevin Knight discusses Will Ospreay and his pay-per-view debut with him in All Elite Wrestling.

Upon Kevin Knight’s debut in All Elite Wrestling he would very quickly wrestle the top talents of the company, including Ospreay.

While speaking to Sir Wilkins in a new interview, Kevin Knight was asked about his ‘welcome to AEW’ moment, noting that for him, it would be his pay-per-view debut against Will Ospreay.

“Definitely my pay-per-view debut against Will Ospreay. Because you’re going against top of the top of the top of the line. Like 001%. Ospreay is this generation’s whatever you want to call it. Because everybody’s trying to pull from him. Everybody’s trying to do his type of style. But Ospreay is like one of one. Nobody’s touching him, in my opinion. Just on like his style, his intensity, his precision. You know what I mean? The first time I saw Will Ospreay in person was against Amazing Red, my opponent tonight in 2019 at the Super J Cup, and I was in awe because I was like six months in. I was like, how in the world can you remember all of this stuff? How in the world can you pull this off? So being able to finally get in the ring with him a month in, two weeks in, so being in AEW was like a shock. I was thrown in the deep end. It was like either sink or swim, kid.”

Elsewhere in the same interview, Knight spoke about pro wrestling being a team sport. You can read more about that here.
