Will Ospreay Vs Ricochet Rematch Confirmed... In Ireland?
And it will happen next month!
The showdown between UK sensation Will Ospreay and the man behind the Lucha Underground Prince Puma mask, Ricochet was the highlight of the New Japan Pro Wrestling Best of the Super Juniors tournament this year. It has since become perhaps the most talked about wrestling match of the entire year due to both how good it was and some controversy over the aerial performance of both men.
The match received widespread attention in the professional wrestling world with many wrestling legends such as Stone Cold Steve Austin praising it as "phenomenal" and "a spectacle" while others, most notably Vader who deemed it a "gymnastics routine".
A possible rematch has been talked about ever since this past summer and it has now finally been confirmed. Will Ospreay and Ricochet will have this now highly anticipated rematch next month on December 17.
However, the match will not be taking place for New Japan Pro Wrestling but will instead be held in the Tivoli Theater in Dublin, Ireland. Irish independent promotion Over The Top Wrestling made the big rematch announcement during their November 26 event in Dublin.
