Qualifying and then winning the Owen Hart Cup tournament would put Ospreay in line for an AEW World Championship match at AEW All In later this summer, a show that happens to be held in London’s Wembley Stadium, not far from where Ospreay grew up. Ospreay is no stranger to wrestling at Wembley, having previously defeated Chris Jericho and MJF at AEW All In 2023 and 2024 in the legendary arena. Winning the AEW World Championship in front of his home fans, however, is something even Ospreay recognizes would be a step above the rest.

“That moment would be…I couldn’t put it into words, because years ago, when they first did that Wembley show, it didn’t seem like it was real, and it didn’t seem like it was possible to, especially, fill it at the time,” Ospreay said. “And I wasn’t even, like, a part of the company back then. So the fact that…I could never imagine what Wembley Stadium would look like. 

“And now I’ve been in there, and I’ve felt it. Winning a championship in that venue, to win the most coveted prize in all of pro wrestling, I honestly think it would be one of those moments where, like, I finally did something cool in my life, that I can actually look back on and be proud of that.”
