Wrestling star Will Ospreay is seeing improvement in his promotional speaking skills.
Acknowledged as one of the top talents in professional wrestling, Will Ospreay has found himself in the spotlight more often after joining AEW, with the need to deliver promos due to the multiple TV shows they broadcast weekly.
In conversation with Denise Salcedo on Instinct Culture, Ospreay shared his experiences with promos since his AEW debut.
“Truthfully, I’ve never seen myself as much of a promo person. That’s something I still admit because I am on the path of learning. Due to my ADHD, which has always been a barrier, making eye contact has been difficult for me. I am doing my utmost to address this and maintain focus. Not to say I’ve become exceptional, but I am certainly doing a lot better than I ever anticipated,” Ospreay confessed.
“So for that, I am actually rather proud of myself considering I’ve never been known for promos nor have I ever pretended to be talented in that area. However, my recent efforts show that I’ve developed quite a bit.”
Ospreay is scheduled to compete with Roderick Strong to vie for the AEW International Championship at the AEW Double or Nothing event.
