Will Ospreay used his platform as AEW World Champion to send a pointed message to WWE after the two promotions ran head-to-head shows in Chicago. AEW held All Out at the NOW Arena on Saturday, the same night WWE presented Worlds Collide at the Allstate Arena, and Ospreay headlined the AEW show as champion.
According to Fightful, Ospreay said that everyone who came to AEW All Out made the right choice, adding, “do not fucking step to us.” The comments came in the context of WWE running its own event in the same city on the same date as AEW’s pay-per-view.
411Mania similarly reported that Ospreay told those who attended AEW All Out in 2026 that they had chosen the right company, framing the remark as a direct response to WWE’s decision to schedule Worlds Collide against AEW’s show in Chicago.
Ospreay’s comments underscore the competitive tension between the two promotions as both continue to run shows in overlapping markets. Neither outlet’s report included further detail from Ospreay on the match results or additional developments from AEW All Out itself.
