This headline is nowhere near an appropriate representation of the story we broke.

Never saw swerve as a transitional champion to Opsreay. Honestly, I didn’t think Swerve would lose at Forbidden Door.

Will Ospreay is gonna be gold for AEW because he can actually see the vision. He sees just how dang popular Swerve Strickland is so there’s no point in ruining his momentum.

Makes sense because you're building more stars this way. Will gets it. Swerve deserves to have more opportunities to prove how good he is. Besides, AEW gave Joe a little bit of run. Swerve can go longer. Khan is getting his money's worth and Swerve is finally getting the chance to shine properly.

Your Ospreay title/headline is extremely misleading. Do better guys.

Say what you want but that was a mature move by Osprey. Gotta work together and build the company.

One of the reasons why Dominik is such a great heel. He may not be his father as a wrestler yet but he knows through the use of body language and facial expressions how to feed that heat. Most people know he is happily married but despite kayfabe being dead I see people all over the place who are 100% invested in the Rhea, Liv, Dom storyline and a big part of that still working is Dom's bratty actions and reactions.

This reminds me of 2008 when WWE had a poll "Who's the bigger star?" Between Batista and Cena before their Summerslam match. Batista got like 17% of the vote then went over clean.

Give me Omega (when hes back healthy) vs Ospreay again!!!!

Having Swerve Strickland retain the AEW World Championship was the right call. I don't know why some people hate on Strickland. That guy is an amazing wrestler and he proved it once again in this banger of a match with Will Ospreay.

Will Osprey…class act

Swerve vs Ospreay was amazing...like Swerve, Will, Omega (when healthy) MJF and when tony learns to book real stars Takeashita (the most underrated guy on the roster) like some epic possibilities for top of the card and or the AEW championship.

Don’t even blame Will for that one.

1:31 if true, props to Ol' Willy boy for that. Real classy move.

No he’s tired of wrestling media not aew talent

Anyone know where Andy has gone from the news

This why he the billy goat 💪🏿

I'm glad Will did this because besides Swerve winning the belt from Joe and his match with Will it looks like AEW doesn't have a direction for Swerve

Big up the Brudenell Social Club tshirt 👌🏾

Bring back Andy Murray

Where's the drama? You guys make shit up for no reason...If you guys do good work on these videos people will click on them. Stop click baiting.😊

11:12 remember Cody's heel run in Bullet Club

Learned 2 things. 1. Osprey is a stand up guy 2. AEW was indeed treating Swerve as a transitional champion and they wanted him to drop the belt just like we predicted.

Have i missed something?? Where is andy murray?? I feel like we haven't seen him in weeks.. hope all is well

Could Richochet vs Ibushii put on a better match than Swerve vs Osprey?

Could the "MEGA" main event be Ricochet vs Ospreay? 👀

Exhaustion of those who’ve overstayed their welcome? “HI GUYS”

Why the jab at Jericho? He’s firmly in the midcard putting people over🙄

It’s sad that WIL has to stand up for Swerve to not be a transitional champion. Swerve just got over on his own like why df would they wanna make him transitional.

3:54 ORANGE CASSIDY AND MOX- Tired of them

You don't have to let us say the name jericho we know you're thinking it lol

This was once the biggest wrestling channel in the world. Now its just a parody of itself.

Maria vs Athena, Briscoe vs Rhodes July 17th ROH titles

cody was a heel in his original run with orton and Ted DiBiase Jr. so it's not like he wasn't ever a heel before.

MJF vs Garcia has been announced for All In: London, Adam. "Oh it's Ospreay vs MJF at All In, obviously..." No it's not... 🤣🤣

July 17th "Huge" and "Mega" main event? Sooooooo basically Will Ospreay vs Ricochet? Also Cody Rhodes in the past as a heel was definitely a different person. And because how much he is loved nowadays, his heel turn would be explosive

I don't like the fact this was leaked. Kinda makes Swerve less legitimate

If Cody Rhodes turns heel that would be so amazing

Opinion is the lowest form of human knowledge. What Culture best represents that fact every time they talk 💩 about the Attitude Era!

Osprey has a Championship already just like CEO. He'll be AEW Champion soon enough. I think they'll have MJF win it back in a rematch then him and Osprey will be the big match. I see that happening by the end of the year.

If MJF,Swerve and Will alongside Kenny and Hangman are your faces takeshita,Jay white, ricky starks, joe and adam cole should be your top heels

Moxley. The established name us moxley

You guys are so much better than the title of this video. Very disappointing in you all.

Haha what happened to the original thumb nail?

lemme pitch to you the band name "moderate aggregation"

This is why Dom needs to be respected more because bruh is actually a heel, like he’s truly hated for being beating Rey. He just needs to be find a way to be able to cut promos in front of the crowd because once he does it’ll be crazy (also improve those ring skills just a little bit) he’s gonna be a legend though especially if he ever drops the Mysterio last name to really give it to Rey

No, we don't know this. This was a report from someone who's been wrong before, so let's make sure we say "IF" this is true instead of reporting ofsprey "actually: did this!!

That didn't take long 😂

Haha 😂 Swerve just been linked by Will Os. Dude is gonna tell him in the future that I made you kkkk

Wait - are you saying Ospreay isn’t usually known for “supreme intellect” because he’s an Essex boi?

Does anyone like Dominic. I mean even Rhea is pissed at him and Liv is just using him against Rhea. Pretty sure he is just a straight heel.

lo escondieron al pelado? menos mal, ahora esta mejor que el pelado no está

In terms have things that make me want to "jump the barricade". I was at a UK indie last year and there was a but of an inter gender spot where the lass got thrown out hard onto the floor over the top. She looked like she fell hard. No ringside mats and no barrier, I had to check myself as my natural instinct was to jump out of my chair and check on her. Those split seconds when you get drawn in and you get a reaction are one of the most engaging parts of the show. If the performers can elicit an emotion from the crowd, then they've done their job well.

Big surprise is Owen Harte surprise return, new gimmick- the “real” deadman!

I mean swerve has talked about how will put him up when he first travelled to the UK and helped him out getting into the UK wrestling scene. They are really good friends so it makes sense will would want to put him over.!

Osprey is such a great lad. Bruv can handle the grind! 😉

Hope dmd shows up tonight

Where is Andy Murray?????

Will is a good guy Very positive for the future of AEW

One hell of a PPV main event. It’s not fair how AEW keep having Match of the Year candidates while my WWE chooses not to step it up 😞

Hamflett going to see Bloc Party gives me life.

How does Wilf's comments make any sense? Nobody believed he would win the belt at FD so he's done nothing to make Swerve anymore credibile. If he was that committed to it, he should have put him over at Wembley were everyone was convinced he was winning the title because Tony can't resist a cheap pop like when Saraya won the title last year for no reason other than "she's in her home country"

Fans: We want Ospreay to win the world championship at Forbidden Door Ospreay: That doesn’t work for me, bruv.

It's an awesome way of thinking by Ospey and He WILL be world champion soon.

Respect to Cody for basically just saying he'll be a heel again one day; Cena and Bianca always flat out refused, and Cody DOES have a similar connection with the young fans to them...

Didn't Cody say that he would refuse to turn heel now because he didn't want his daughter to see some clips of him acting that way?

Roman and MJF got everyone fooled thinking if the reign isn't a year+ it's transitional.

Johnny Knoxville is a successful celebrity in WWE

Exhausted with Mox and Jericho

I know kayfabe has been dead (thanks Cliq) but we as wrestling fans don’t need to know everything. Knowing that Osprey fought to put Swerve over doesn’t help Swerve…..it being public I mean

Swerve is proving he can carry the company.

You guys really need to fix your headlines unless you're goal was to have ospreay pissed at you guys for lying

Tbh I didn’t think swerve would loose the belt to Osprey Strickland is just too dominant of a champion

Everything that could get a person legit heat would also more than likely get them " cancelled" in 2024😅

Cody would have to be a Steve Austin X7 to say some bull like I hate Luke then slap his son and tell Jo Jo I'm glad he's gone and the kids are mine

CM Punk is the REAL AEW worlds champ.

WOW

Actual heat is tough bc scorched earth true heat in 2024 is borderline “go away” “xpac” heat. For example, Jericho has the most heel heat in aew but only half the fans. Christian cage is the most consistent heel but his heel work is so good; 25% of the fans want to see him. Heels rarely can get that heat with a world where the fans appreciate the characters. Dominik gets that kind of heat bc of what he’s done but also not being a keen worker does get the fans to hate him. It’s a tough deal and a fine line to play for sure. Jeff Jarrett is the only one in aew imo who has true heel heat and works perfectly within traditional wrestling heel roles.

Don't think Will Ospreay later down the line is the right person to take the belt from swerve. I just didn't feel like forbidden door with the right time. My reasoning for that is that exactly what they were saying it would feel like he's a transitional champ. At the same time, I was worried they make will ospreay look weaker than swear, but they didn't they made each other look good!

Can you please define "bad faith actor"? From all your vids it seems to mean "people with other opinons"

Mjf holdings the international champion is good look for aew.

Osprey has found out he's working with children .

That's such dumb logic by Ospreay and kind of why you don't let workers book the show. All In is their wrestlemania and who knows how many more years they can run Wembley. They had a really big chance to create an absolutely massive feel good moment when WWE constantly screwed Drew in the UK, and they blew it! I hope they stick to the plan and have him win the title at Wembley. Swerve only becomes transitional if he slides down the card like every ex champ seems to have

Today should be easier to be a heel so easy to offend

He just got there, how tf he tired already? This gotta be a shoot

Why is this a story? Did Osprey have creative control and was the bigger man and took the loss to help Swerve? Yeah, not buying it. Just another way for Billiam to get headlines

I get AEW booked Ospreay to look strong. But in Njpw Ospreay would lose more than he would win over there. Even when he put on stellar matches. This is not really anything new to Ospreay fans from back in the day😬🤓.Win or lose, you will be entertained

LOL they got worked again...not always news guys

Jeez, what a dishonest reading of that story in your video title. Calling this "drama" is ridiculous when it's a fan narrative that Swerve was going to lose to him. Leading with him "being tired of drama" is an assumption. That's not what the story says.

Gracias aew por existir y darles un trabajo a los vagos que viven con sus padres ❤

Why?? What good does Ospreay vs MJF do other then check Tony's Dream Match list again?? THAT is the biggest draw back for me with AEW... booking is like Chess - you dont start out with a board of Queens... you need to use your bishops, knights, and especially pawns wisely, move them strategically across the board and MAKE them work horses and turn your pawns into Queens... Tony has no rhyme or reason, they just book without history, heat, story, or even desire.... it makes all these high profile matches blah - your box of matches feels EXACTLY what Tony does...

"Excellent reporting by Fightful and Sean Ross Sapp" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 You guys come straight out a comic book! So Fightful says Osprey didn't want Swerve to be a transitional champion and to lose it to him at ALL IN... BUT FIGHTFUL ALSO SAYS... Osprey vs Swerve was never the plan for ALL IN and they always had different opponents. THEY CAN'T EVEN GET THEIR STORY STRAIGHT. HOW CAN SWERVE BE A TRANSITIONAL CHAMPION LOSING TO OSPREY AT ALL IN IF THEY WEREN'T EVER BOOKED TO WRESTLE, BOTH OF WHICH FIGHTFUL REPORTED????? "Excellent reporting" 🤣🤣🤣 what a JOKE.

nice SWERVE with the video title, not many will watch without running with that headline. im wondering why it would ever be up to will to decide he was gonna lose to swerve 😂 tony still cant put his foot down?

cody rhodes dont want to be heel

I will never care about AEW like I used to until THEY FUCKING USE MIRO!!!! Or give him tf back to WWE 💯

Why would swerve lose 😹😹 swerve is a good champion

whoever does the titles for your videos misses the mark so often. We dont appreciate misinformation or baiting or whatever you continue to do with these titles. If it wasnt for Simon and his up/downs I would have unsubscribed a year ago:)

Exactly! Support black champions- it's simple

The win actually does nothing for Swerve. Especially now, since he went public and basically backstabbed Swerve. You only won, because I allowed it. What a joke he is.

When it comes to the AEW Heavyweight Championship, Swerve was/is deserving of the belt but his run just hasn't had the grit that led up to him winning. He needs that back and I feel that he and Hangman put on one of the best programs since Punk/MJF. So... book Swerve/Hangman - Hangman's Revenge.. have Swerve drop the belt to Hangman and then have Hangman/Ospreay feud (with Swerve costing him the title) leading to an Ospreay/MJF feud.
