Today at 01:03 PM
Will Ospreay has revealed his favorite moment in AEW Dynamite history, noting that it made him want to join the company.
The AEW International Champion spoke on the topic for a video celebrating Dynamite's fifth anniversary and named Jon Moxley's promo that opened the September 7th, 2022, episode of the show following the infamous All Out 2022 backstage brawl incident.
Ospreay said, "My favorite Dynamite moment is where Jon Moxley stepped into the ring and spoke from the heart to the audience about 'time to be a legend. And I sat in a room in Japan looking at the words that he said, and how he rallied the troops and rallied all the fans into continuously believing in AEW."
He continued, "From that moment, I knew I wanted to be part of this place, so that is my favorite Dynamite moment."

Tony Schiavone considers Vince McMahon and Jesse Ventura one of the best commentary teams in wrestling history.
During a recent episode of his “What Happened When” podcast, Schiavone praised McMahon for his work alongside Ventura, acknowledging the former WWE Chairman’s ability to effectively promote and discuss the action due to his intimate knowledge of the company.
McMahon and Ventura regularly provided commentary for WWE shows in the late 1980s, such as Superstars Of Wrestling and Saturday Night’s Main Event.
Schiavone said, "I go back, when you think about great commentary teams, I think Vince McMahon and Jesse 'The Body' Ventura were one of the best commentary teams ever. Just like Gorilla and Bobby Heenan or Jerry Lawler and JR… Vince, realistically, it was his company, so he knew what to say. He knew how to promote things, so I thought he was great in this area."
