SUMMARY
- Will Ospreay has been making headlines after the latest episode of AEW Dynamite.
- The reason behind his recent rise to the limelight is a controversial interview with Renee Paquette.
WWE and AEW’s rivalry has gotten heated once again, as Tony Khan released the backstage footage of the All In saga involving CM Punk. The CEO did so on the recent episode of Dynamite, but on the same show, Will Ospreay made some controversial remarks against the legendary Triple H.
These comments by Ospreay felt like a desperate response to The Game’s statement on The Pat McAfee Show last week. On Pat’s show, Hunter stated he was glad some free agent talents opted not to sign with WWE, because if they’re “not in it for the grind” they “have no business being here.” Even though he didn’t name Will, it seemed an indirect shot at him, so he has responded to it.
The veteran performer did so during an interview segment with Renee Paquette, known as Renee Young in WWE, on Dynamite’s latest episode. During his conversation with the female figure, Ospreay went quite personal and said, “Normally I wouldn’t rise to this type of bait, but seeing as the guy that said it is only in the position he’s in because he was grinding on the boss’s daughter.”

As soon as he said so, fans started sharing their reactions to the promo across social media platforms. Moreover, a lot of people felt bad for Renee to be in the situation for such a promo against Triple H, as she has previously been in the Stamford-based promotion. In fact, people have been questioning if she was the right choice to take this interview with Will Ospreay in the first place itself.
WWE Universe reacts to Will Ospreay’s controversial promo with Renee Paquette
While the WWE Universe is raising their voice against All Elite Wrestling for humiliating Paquette, they are also disappointed with Aerial Assassin. In fact, fans have been showing through social media that they aren’t happy with Will Ospreay for his controversial promo with Renee Paquette.
Sharing how it was just pointless for Will to cut such a promo against the WWE CCO, an audience member said, “This guy has nothing on Triple H.” “She also knows HHH is on another level,” a pro wrestling enthusiast said referring to Renee.“That was so incredibly cringe,” someone commented while pointing out that it was weird to see that verbal attack.

These comments showcase that fans are lashing out at the AEW star for his comments against The Game. Moreover, they are also paying special attention to the reactions of Renee Paquette when the Aerial Assassin was saying all the unexpected things against Hunter.
Renee Paquette has a great relationship with Triple H due to her WWE tenure
Renee seemed a bit unusual while taking the interview with Will Ospreay, and fans have been wondering the reason behind it. A possibility could be that she wasn’t too happy to hear so much against The Game, as she reportedly has a great relationship with Triple H due to her long WWE tenure.
In fact, Paquette has expressed the amount of respect she has for Hunter in multiple interviews throughout her career. She once shared how the legendary pro wrestling figure took care of her even after her husband, Jon Moxley (Dean Ambrose), had left the promotion.
Renee Paquette even shared that WWE was always there to help her and Jon, and despite the amount of time they spent together, nothing bad went down. All this might be the reason why she wasn’t looking that comfortable during Will’s interview on AEW Dynamite. With that, it remains to be seen what’s next in the controversy involving Ospreay and the Stamford-based promotion’s CCO.
