Wrestlers haven't hesitated to go after one another for the past few weeks. Je'Von Evans and Ricochet had one of the most brutal tweet wars on wrestling X. While The One and Only talked about Evans, the latter directly attacked Tony Khan. In recent interviews, Will Ospreay has been stirring the pot, claiming that AEW produces a better product than WWE.

"So you’ll be watching the developmental for the developmental for the developmental? No worries… I’ll be busy developing, while you are watching others develop!" he wrote.

Will Ospreay talks about WWE WrestleMania 41

WrestleMania 41 was considered a major disappointment to Many fans who highly criticized the show.

While speaking on the Daily Star, the former International Champion said that he didn't watch WrestleMania. However, he praised IYO SKY, Bianca Belair, and Rhea Ripley's performance on the Grandest Stage of Them All.

“WWE are on fire now, but not even as a viewer, as a wrestler, I just don't enjoy it. I haven't watched WrestleMania. From what I've heard, it wasn't the best Mania.

It will be interesting to see if any star from the global sports entertainment juggernaut replies to his comments.
