Will Ospreay will not be competing at NORTH Wrestling’s 7/30 show in Newcastle due to a shoulder injury. The 23-year-old is one of the most popular names on the independent scene because of his unique in-ring style. That same style has taken it’s toll on him as he’s suffered several concussions and he’s had shoulder issues in the past.
Ospreay issued the following statement via Facebook:
To anybody attending North Wrestling I have the unfortunate news that I will not be able to attend due to injury.
Nothing to North Wrestling at all I took a nasty knock to my shoulder during the WCPW shows and I’m hoping it’s not bad but I’m booking a appointment with my doctors & pysiotherapist to see what the damage is.
Fingers crossed for the best
NORTH Wrestling also issued a statement:
It's with utter disappointment, but wholehearted understanding, that we have to announce @WillOspreay won't be appearing tomorrow. 1/2
