Konnan on AEW star Will Ospreay's shots at Triple H

Former AEW International Champion Will Ospreay took some major shots on Triple H and how he got to his current position in WWE last year. The Aerial Assassin also hit The Game's Pedigree finishing move at an independent wrestling event, which got reactions from fans and veterans.

On a recent edition of the Keepin' It 100 podcast, Konnan claimed that Will Ospreay fired shots at The Game to get over with fans.

"There is a thing called the bump card, you know, and you're gonna run out of bumps and you're not gonna be able to take them because you did indie shows like this. And the thing is, when he does that to Hunter, you know, his base and the people that love him, they hate WWE. Right? So, of course, that what he did is gonna get over. But, yeah, he does do a lot of indies. Probably more than anybody in that company." [1:54 - 2:30]

Viewers will have to wait and see what's in store for Will Ospreay this year in All Elite Wrestling.
