WWE Superstar AJ Styles has been getting some praise for his incredible transformation recently. Former WWE Champion Kevin Nash recently spoke highly about Styles and wants to see AEW star Will Ospreay do the same and get in better shape.

Will Ospreay is one of All Elite Wrestling's recent signings and reportedly rejected an offer from the WWE. Ospreay has competed in some great matches ever since signing with AEW against the likes of Bryan Danielson, Kyle Fletcher, and Konosuke Takeshita. He is gearing up to challenge for the International Championship at the upcoming Double or Nothing PPV.

Speaking on his Kliq THIS podcast, Kevin Nash stated that he enjoys watching Will Ospreay, however, The Aerial Assassin needs to get in better shape to represent AEW as their top star.

“See, Ospreay’s their star. If Wembley’s the show in September, you got to crown Ospreay there and that should be your number one goal, is to make him the face of your company because he’s ‘the guy.’ Though at the same time, I watched a little bit of Smackdown and I watched AJ and it’s like Ospreay needs to get in better shape … everybody looks like indie guys because no one looks like they take care of themselves. He just turned 30, yeah, c’mon, man."

He added:

“He’s fun to watch, he would be so great to watch against somebody like a Lesnar because he needs kind of a Goliath to pound the s*** out of him … you can’t sell an uppercut and take a flat back and then take another uppercut and kick up into a move, everything’s got to be sold the same."

"Thank you so much for that incredible atmosphere last night. That was nothing I have ever felt before in my life. Sending all the love and positive vibes to Bryan Danielson. Truly the greatest to ever do this, speedy recovery boss," Will Ospreay wrote.
