AEW Full Gear 2024 was a night to remember with many amazing matches taking place, but one match, in particular, had fans and even commentator Jim Ross on the edge of their seats. The bout between Kyle Fletcher and Will Ospreay was highly anticipated due to the history between the two men, and they did not disappoint.
The match between Fletcher and Ospreay was filled with high-octane action and high-risk spots. However, one spot, in particular, had everyone holding their breath. Kyle Fletcher performed a jumping tombstone piledriver to Ospreay from the apron onto the steel steps, a move that had Jim Ross concerned for the well-being of both men.
Speaking on his podcast, Jim Ross admitted that the spot had scared him, as he thought there was no way both men would walk away unscathed. However, he praised their youth and resilience for allowing them to finish the match without serious injury. Ross acknowledged that such dangerous spots could have hampered the creative direction of the company if either man had been injured.
In a separate segment on his podcast, Jim Ross expressed his concern over Kenny Omega potentially permanently leaving AEW TV. Omega, who has been recovering from diverticulitis, recently made an appearance at NJPW Power Struggle and challenged Gabe Kidd to a match at Wrestle Dynasty. This raised eyebrows as it will be Omega’s first match back and will not take place in AEW.
Ross, who is a big fan of Omega, admitted that he is selfish and wants his favorite wrestlers to be front and center on AEW television. He emphasized Omega’s talent and expressed his hope that Omega would not permanently leave the promotion, as talents like Omega are rare and do not come along often.
Overall, AEW Full Gear was a night filled with excitement, drama, and heart-stopping moments. The matches showcased the incredible talent of the wrestlers involved, and fans are eagerly anticipating what the future holds for both Kyle Fletcher, Will Ospreay, and Kenny Omega in the world of professional wrestling.
