Will Ospreay talks about the backstage incident with MJF and Britt Baker

Will Ospreay has given his perspective on the reported backstage incident involving AEW stars MJF and Britt Baker.

The alleged altercation arose due to comments made by former AEW Women's World Champion Britt Baker about MJF and Will Opsreay. Last week, reports surfaced detailing a heated argument between MJF and Baker, with Ospreay allegedly intervening at one point during the confrontation.

When asked for comment by the New York Post, Ospreay chose his words carefully. He declined to go into detail, admitting that he was unclear about the exact details that were reported. However, he did not mince his words when expressing his overall view of the situation, describing it as follows:

this is the most utter exaggeration I have ever seen in my entire life.

Ospreay emphasized his role as a peacemaker in the locker room.

I'm just trying to bring people together as a team. That's all I can say about it. I'm fully aware that people don't like each other backstage. I know there are people backstage that I don't like. My point is just that we all need to be a team going forward. We all need to look out for each other.

According to Will Ospreay's statement, what does he think will be MJF's downfall?

Will Ospreay spoke positively about MJF, but said the recognition could be his downfall. Ospreay called MJF a “generational talent” and praised MJF's skills on the microphone and in the ring, saying he is one of the best wrestlers in the world.
