Folks, the match between The Aerial Assassin Will Ospreay and The Bastard PAC at AEW All Out 2024 was more back-and-forth than a political debate. You know the kind, where everyone’s flipping, twisting, and just when you think someone’s about to win, they kick out! It was like they were running on pure adrenaline—or maybe they just didn’t want to end up on a bad meme.
Before the match even started, the two stared at each other like they were about to arm wrestle over the last slice of pizza. And then? Chaos. PAC kicked things off with a headlock, but they weren’t grounded for long. Nope, we got dueling Sky Twisters. TWISTERS, people. Not one, but TWO.
At one point, Ospreay decided he needed a break, so he rolled out of the ring. Big mistake. PAC smashed him into the barricades like he was trying to check his rage at airport security. What followed was an avalanche brainbuster, dropkicks, piledrivers, and about every move in the wrestling playbook, including the OsCutter, Liger Bomb, and of course, poison ranas—which became a sort of unintentional theme for the night. PAC hit Ospreay with so many poison ranas, you’d think the man had a vendetta against vertebrae.
The crowd nearly lost it when PAC tried to hit a poison rana off the top rope. Ospreay, like a cat who always lands on his feet, did exactly that—then proceeded to dish out a Hidden Blade that PAC somehow kicked out of. Yes, folks, even after that, the match kept going. But it took Ospreay hitting every finisher in the buffet—an OsCutter, a StormBreaker, a Styles Clash, and one more Hidden Blade to finally close the deal and retain his AEW International Title.
But wait, there’s more! Ricochet, AEW’s newest hire, was spotted backstage watching this carnage unfold. Ospreay, being the gracious champion that he is, went on to challenge Ricochet after the match, telling him to stop collecting a paycheck and start collecting some wins. Pretty bold for a guy who just needed four finishers to win a match, but hey, that’s Ospreay for you.
