"As a kid we all dreamed of competing in Wembley, imagining you're a footballer like David Beckham, Paul Scholes, or Michael Owen, so to go out there now."
Ospreay noted that his previous appearance at the venue in 2024 remains a deeply personal highlight. "It was just so special when I went out there in 2024.
Everyone in the crowd is chanting me mum's maiden name," he said.
Despite achieving historic success at an early age, including winning the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Championship at 25, Ospreay admits to feeling the physical wear of his career.
"Sometimes it feels like I'm past my prime, mate.
I wake up and my back hurts, I've had neck surgery — but honestly, that is one of the greatest honors you can give me," Ospreay said regarding his legacy.
Ospreay also keeps a close eye on his former United Empire stablemates, Kyle Fletcher and Mark Davis of Aussie Open, who have found success under Don Callis.
"Kyle and Mark actually lived with me for a year in Japan. We formed a really close bond.
Kyle, and I say this through gritted teeth, because I don't like how he does things — but he's become one of the best wrestlers in the world.
As for Mark, the amount of hard work he's put in.
