Will Ospreay Wants PAC in a Future Match
It looks to be that former NJPW Junior Heavyweight Champion Will Ospreay wants PAC in a future match up. The former ROH Telivision and NJPW JH champion went to Twitter to issue the challenge. This was shortly after news broke that PAC (formerly known as Neville in WWE) was no longer under a WWE contract.

Give. Me. PAC.

Both men have competed in Ring of Honor and New Japan Pro Wrestling. Ospreay has made a better name for himself in both promotions. Will Ospreay debuted in NJPW as a member of the stable Chaos. He would go on to win the “Best of the Super Juniors” tournament. Ospreay would then defeat Kushida for the NJPW JH championship the following October.
PAC was better known in Pro Wrestling Guerrilla before signing with NXT in 2012. PAC, under the new name Neville, would go on to win the NXT championship against Bo Dallas in a Ladder match. He would move on to win the WWE Cruiserweight championship after a brief run on Monday Night RAW and a successful debut on 205 Live.
Both men are both known for a high-risk offense. When PAC was in WWE, he would switch between high-flying and ground-based depending on his allegiance (heel or babyface). Ospreay is best known for his springboard cutter finish or his corkscrew neckbreaker named the “Storm Breaker”.

A lot of the wrestling community has already made their opinions known about a possible match between Will Ospreay and PAC. It would be a grand spectacle to see if it ever were to occur. If it were to happen, it would most likely be in NJPW or ROH. At present, there are no announcements. PAC hasn’t said anything about his recent departure from WWE yet.
But, if it were to happen, it would be a match for the ages.
