AEW makes blockbuster announcement; new partnership confirmed

AEW recently made a huge announcement related to Will Ospreay. The Aerial Assassin is the current International Champion.

At All In 2024, Will Ospreay marched to the ring for his International Championship match against MJF while making an Assassin's Creed-themed entrance. Ospreay has been a long-time fan of the franchise and the entrance also included a promotional package for the newest entry into the video game series, 'Assassin's Creed Shadows.'

On X (formerly known as Twitter), All Elite Wrestling announced that they have partnered up with Ubisoft to release limited edition 'Assassin's Creed Shadows' T-shirts and posters featuring Will Ospreay.

​

"Following @WillOspreay's incredible #AEWAllInLondon entrance at @WembleyStadium, in partnership with @Ubisoft, #AEW & @Assassins_UK have released a limited edition, officially licensed Aerial Assassin - Assassin's Creed Shadows T-shirt & Poster! Get yours now at @ShopAEW!"

Will Ospreay recently reacted to Ricochet signing with AEW

The Aerial Assassin has been vocal about wanting to see The One and Only jump ship to the Jacksonville-based promotion and his wish was seemingly granted as Ricochet made his huge debut at All In last month.

At the post-All In media scrum, Will Ospreay reacted to the arrival of his former rival and claimed that Ricochet needed to go through other stars before he can challenge for the International Championship.

"Man's gotta work for it, though. There is a long list of people that he's gonna have to beat before he can call out the International Champion. But honestly, I think it's been eight years since that Best of the Super Juniors match and we've both gone in our separate directions, we've both done well, but now he's under this microscope, and maybe just maybe, I called him out all those times just to see if he's got any bollocks," he said.

Will Ospreay is set to defend his International Title against PAC at All Out. It will be interesting to see if Ricochet shares the ring with Ospreay in the near future.
