Will Ospreay and Kenny Omega’s rivalry combined wrestling storylines with public criticism from both performers. In a 2024 interview, Ospreay said Omega’s comments about his work in New Japan Pro-Wrestling had changed how he regarded him.
What Ospreay said
Ospreay discussed his views during an interview on AEW Unrestricted in May 2024. He criticized Omega’s remarks about his work in New Japan Pro-Wrestling and described frustration with how Omega spoke about Ospreay’s accomplishments. Fightful’s report summarizes the interview.
Separating story from real life
Their matches in NJPW and AEW were part of wrestling storylines. Ospreay’s interview gave his account of the personal tension; it did not settle every disputed detail.
The rivalry
Ospreay and Omega faced each other in major matches, including at Wrestle Kingdom 17 and AEW’s 2023 pay-per-view Forbidden Door. The matches and public remarks are verifiable; claims about private motives should remain attributed and carefully framed.
