#4 Ospreay creates his Empire
Trending
From the very beginning of this G1 Climax 30 tournament, Will Ospreay seemed to be embrae the online chatter around his character. The Aerial Assassin was came off much cockier in contests against Ishii, Suzuki, and Ibushi. These teases didn't prepare anyone for what was to come in Ospreay's final A Block match though.
In the G1 Climax 30 A Block finals, Will Ospreay faced his CHAOS stablemate, Kazuchika Okada. Okada was the man who brought him into NJPW and welcomed him into CHAOS. However, over the course of five previous meetings, Ospreay was never able to defeat his surrogate older brother. On this night, nothing including their longtime friendship would get in the way of victory.
With the help of his girlfriend Bea Priestley and a returning Great-O-Khan, Ospreay used the Stormbreaker to finally overcome The Rainmaker. After the G1 Climax 30 match, Ospreay solidified his heel turn by blasting Okada with the Hidden Blade and telling him that he held him back this whole time. His post-match comments confirmed that Priestley and O-Khan were the first members of a new NJPW stable, The Empire.
