The Aerial Assassin hurt his neck earlier this year. Death Riders wrote him off at All In, but he returned to the ring ahead of surgery at Forbidden Door. Despite not being fully clear, he entered the ring in a Lights Out Steel Cage bout to take down the Death Riders. After the babyface team emerged victorious, Jon Moxley targeted Will's neck, and he was stretchered out of the stadium.

While speaking with Metro, the former International Champion said that personalities from WWE contacted him and asked him if he needed any assistance concerning his neck surgery.

“I’ve got people in (WWE) that I’ve never met before in my entire life, that have reached out because of this neck injury, and they have gone, ‘Hey, if you need a doctor, or if there’s any questions that need to be answered.’ Every single one of them are super lovely. And I wish them all the best. I really do," Ospreay said. [H/T - Metro]
