Former IWGP World Champion Will Ospreay has praised a multi-time WWE Tag Team Champion after their classic match on the latest episode of AEW Dynamite.

The name being discussed is Claudio Castagnoli (fka Cesaro). He squared off against The Aerial Assassin in the main event of this week's AEW Dynamite. It was a significant challenge for Ospreay ahead his high-profile bout at the Dynasty pay-per-view on Sunday.

Castagnoli and Ospreay engaged in a hard-hitting battle, where the latter reigned supreme. Following his win, The Aerial Assassin shared an appreciation post for The Swiss Cyborg on Twitter. Ospreay hailed his opponent as the strongest pro wrestler he had faced in his career and disclosed that he always wanted to test himself against the latter.

"For the longest time I've wondered what it would be to challenge @ClaudioCSRO He is without any doubt the strongest guy I've faced in wrestling. And it was an absolute pleasure testing myself against him before my bout with Bryan. Thankyou for the challenge & thank you Indianapolis for housing me!"

Will Ospreay has to carry his momentum into AEW Dynasty

After Claudio Castagnoli's loss against Will Ospreay, he was attacked by The Don Callis Family. However, Blackpool Combat Club member Jon Moxley arrived to make the save.

Ospreay is set to face another BCC member Bryan Danielson on Sunday at the AEW Dynasty pay-per-view. The match promises to be great, considering both individuals are known for their remarkable in-ring skills. The former IWGP World Champion will aim to score a win and cement his place at the top of the men's division.

It remains to be seen if The Aerial Assassin manages to secure a victory over The American Dragon in St. Louis after defeating the latter's stablemate on Dynamite.
