Will Ospreay wants to face 50-year-old WWE Hall of Famer in AEW: 'Man, I grew up watching you"

WWE Hall of Famer Adam Copeland (fka Edge) is on the list of Will Ospreay's dream opponents in AEW. The Aerial Assassin is a former International Champion.

Adam Copeland broke his tibia at AEW Double or Nothing earlier this year and has been out of action since. Meanwhile, Will Ospreay has been having some of the best matches against Konosuke Takeshita, Ricochet, and MJF, among others. The Rated-R Superstar is also one of the names Ospreay wants to test himself against in All Elite Wrestling.

In a recent appearance on The Masked Man Show, The Aerial Assassin named Adam Copeland as his dream opponent. Ospreay noted how Copeland tried his best to elevate his move-set whenever he competed in All Elite wrestling and claimed that he fit in the company very well.

"Adam Copeland. Like I want to know what that looks like. I would love to know like ... he was saying a little while ago like when he was in the ring and when he was healthy, like, he would just try a new thing every single time, and I can't remember a time where he was like this. He fits right into AEW, and it's, like ... it's such a weird concept to wrap your head around because it's like, 'Man, I grew up watching you.'" [H/T:WrestlingINC]
