Will Ospreay
Following the news last week of Paul Heyman offering Will Ospreay an EVOLVE contract, PWTorch.com is reporting Ospreay has signed an exclusive US deal with WWNLive to join the EVOLVE roster.
PWTorch is saying WWNLive will pay for Ospreay’s work visa, and he will join the roster for dates when his international schedule allows it. Ospreay has an exclusive international deal with New Japan Pro Wrestling, and will be able to work some US independent shows depending on WWNLive’s booking arrangements. He wouldn’t appear for Ring of Honor, however, because of the WWNLive deal, even though NJPW and ROH have a working relationship.
