Top AEW star โThe Aerial Assassinโ Will Ospreay appeared on Insight With Chris Van Vliet, where he discussed a number of topics, including how his 48 five-star matches from Dave Meltzer have impacted his career despite people saying it doesnโt pay the bills.
Ospreay said, โThat was the topic a little while ago where theyโre going โfive star matches donโt pay bills.โ But I have paid for my dadโs house, Iโve paid for my mumโs kitchen, soโฆโ

โHonestly it was more like, if people are looking at it and going โthis is sick,โ they admired the work ethic and the imagination, and the details that I was putting into the match that made it whatever Dave thinks it was. But like of course everyoneโs right, like it doesnโt pay bills, but like for me at that time when I was approaching free agency, it was like โwell who isnโt going to want the guy that is putting f***ing banger, after banger, after banger, after banger, after banger?’โ
