Will Ospreay consider moving to the US?

Will Ospreay is currently serving his term with the New Japan Pro Wrestling and will be with them until early 2024. Surprisingly, the superstar wrestler may consider living in the US, something he has been hesitant about in the past.

The current IWGP United States Heavyweight Champion has wrestled in the States. he has been a part of the action in AEW. Most recently, he was a part of the IMPACT PPV. While these companies are certainly on the run, WWE could also keep their case in front of Ospreay when his deal expires.
