Will Ospreay addresses his shot at WWE CCO Paul “Triple H” Levesque from AEW Dynamite
As seen during the April 10th 2024 edition of AEW Dynamite, Will Ospreay took a shot at Paul “Triple H” Levesque. The promo was said to have been “entirely” Ospreay’s idea and he was willing to “take full responsibility for it” when it was brought to AEW President Tony Khan.
While speaking to media after the 2024 AEW Dynasty PPV event, Ospreay addressed his line about Triple H only being in the position he’s in because he was “grinding” on the boss’s daughter…
“I don’t want to address it anymore. I can remember a generation of when I grew up where like, you throw a jab, I throw one back. Although I wasn’t mentioned by name, it was clearly about me. All due respect, I’m kind of done mentioning anyone over there now. I don’t want to do that anymore because I feel I lowered myself to that standard. I don’t need to do that anymore.
Look what I just did in the ring with Bryan. That’s only match two from pay-per-view. I’ve got a fuckload more to go down. With all due respect, if you take everything into consideration, of course I’m annoyed about a jab that I took. I threw one back, I don’t think it was anything bad. It’s a joke from 20 years ago for fuck sake. Don’t be too butthurt. That’s the first time I’ve ever experienced true tribalism between the two. It’s not nice. It’s unnecessary. I’m over it. I can’t be bothered with it. I just want to be focused on promoting AEW. I don’t regret what I said. You take the entire thing into consideration, it did piss me off, but from this day on, I won’t go down that road. I don’t need to. I’m the best wrestler in the world. I don’t need to fuck with guys below me.” (quote courtesy of Fightful.com)
