Former AEW champion reacts to the idea of facing WWE's Jacob Fatu

WWE star Jacob Fatu has been a revelation in recent months. The Samoan Werewolf debuted in the Stamford-based company last year and quickly became a fan favorite. At WrestleMania 41, he won the United States Championship by defeating the previous champion, LA Knight.

Jacob Fatu is a supremely talented in-ring competitor. He is not only built like a tank but also fast and agile. Fans and veterans worldwide are certain that his career will be legendary, and time after time, he keeps proving them right. Many wrestlers in World Wrestling Entertainment and AEW have praised him, including former AEW International Champion Will Ospreay. In a recent conversation with Highspots for a Sign-it-Live session, the Aerial Assassin was asked if he wished to face him someday.

Unsurprisingly, the English native stated that he adored the Samoan star. In addition, he spoke about his deep appreciation for heavyweight-style wrestling.

"It would be great. I love that guy. I just like heavyweight-style wrestling. It’s just something I never really fully appreciated until I started working the New Japan heavyweight-style, and then I just fell in love with it," said Ospreay. [H/T: Post Wrestling]
