68-year-old WWE veteran praises Will Ospreay, has a "powerfully good feeling" about him

Will Ospreay recently signed with All Elite Wrestling, and wrestling veteran Eric Bischoff has a "good feeling" about him.

Ospreay is a former IWGP World Heavyweight Champion. In New Japan Pro Wrestling, he established himself as a top star, winning multiple championships.

Speaking on his 83 Weeks Podcast, Bischoff spoke quite highly of The Aerial Assassin and explained why he has high expectations from him.

"I just got a powerfully good feeling about Will Ospreay," said Bischoff

Bischoff also believes that Ospreay has the "it" factor.

"Obviously the work in the ring, the presentation is otherworldly in many respects, but that's not what got me the most excited about him...he has that 'it.' You know that 'it factor' that you can't really define? You can't put it in a pill, you can't put it in a bottle, you can't wear it, you can't manufacture it, there's something different about this cat." added Bischoff [H/T: Wrestling Inc]
