At AEW All In: London at Wembley Stadium last Sunday, Will Ospreay defeated Kenny Omega to become the new AEW World Champion. Journalist Dave Meltzer described the contest as the second-best match he has ever watched, awarding it a six-and-a-half-star rating. During the match, Ospreay became the second wrestler in history to kick out of Omega's One Winged Angel finisher. Ospreay secured the victory after delivering a hidden blade maneuver. The result follows a history of high-profile bouts between the two, with the match now receiving significant critical attention. The only other wrestler to survive the One Winged Angel in a standard count was Kota Ibushi in 2012, while MJF previously kicked out of the move under disputed referee circumstances at AEW Dynasty.
