@sandeepxWill Ospreay says he expected the first time he stepped back into the ring after neck surgery to be a lot worse. “First time I got in a ring since the surgery. Honestly, I was expecting it to be a lot worse. I just felt like going in there was like riding the bike. Obviously, we haven’t done any type of bumping yet, but in terms of hitting the ropes, that’s the hardest I’ve ever hit the ropes in a very, very long time, and nothing feels out of place, so that’s the best thing about it. I think it’s looking for any shooting down my arms, any tinglings or anything along those lines, and there’s nothing. There’s nothing out of the ordinary. I feel as good as I was when I first came in. So obviously I haven’t taken a bump yet, so I think that’s going to be the next step. But in terms of all the rope running, all the up and overs, I think I passed. I feel like I did anyway. Obviously, I’ve got to play it safe, and AEW’s going to guide me in these next steps just to make sure that I’m not putting my body at any type of risk. I feel good and I feel like very positive about, this is about me. I’m just about to light my body, so I’m good.” (Rebuild & Destroy vlog) #WillOspreay
