Wrestling legend hails MJF vs. Will Ospreay as a "masterful piece of art"
During the latest episode of Dynamite, MJF and Will Ospreay locked horns for almost an hour with the AEW International Championship on the line. Fans and people associated with the wrestling business have praised the two stars' dedication to their craft and also appreciated Tony Khan for booking a memorable match on free television.
One of the individuals who cherished this nearly hour-long bout was ECW legend, Tommy Dreamer. While speaking on the Busted Open Radio podcast, the 53-year-old mentioned the mental and physical resilience it takes to participate in an hour-long match. Moreover, he showered praise on MJF and Will Ospreay and added that the absence of a timer on the jumbotron added more excitement to the occasion.
"Let me tell you, there's points where you're trying to get energy and you really do need to feed it off the fans. I'm talking when you're 48 [minutes] in because now you're thinking about that clock. It was a masterful piece of art. I really, really enjoyed it. [You've] also then got to say going an hour with one of the best wrestlers –- perceived to be one of the best wrestlers –- if I'm MJF, and then I don't know what Will Ospreay's thinking, but like there's also self-doubt," Tommy Dreamer said.
