Will Ospreay Shares Injury Update After Being Stripped Of Iwgp World Heavyweight Championship

Will Ospreay was forced to vacate the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship last week due to injury, and the New Japan Pro-Wrestling star has since provided some updates on the situation. New Japan initially broke the news last Thursday, writing, “On May 4’s night two of Wrestling Dontaku in Fukuoka, Will Ospreay sustained a neck injury. As a result, Ospreay will not be participating in the next series of events and will instead return to the UK for treatment and rehabilitation. There is no timetable for Ospreay’s return to action at this time, and as a result, his IWGP World Heavyweight Championship will be vacated. “Further announcements on the status of the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship will be made at a later date.”

Had my physio pop over the house today & after further digging I’m now being referred for another MRI on my lower back as well for fears I may have the same issue in my neck.

Things ain’t looking good, but I’m determined to comeback this year

Thanks for all the support.
