You know someone is a fan when they announce it at a major event for everyone to know. That’s exactly what Will Ospreay, professional wrestler, did at the AEW All In event in Texas! Yes, the “Aerial Assassin” himself entered the Texas stage with an Assassin’s Creed partnership under his belt!
And it was a spectacular sight as Will Ospreay was wearing his outfit themed around the Assassin’s Creed Shadows game, escorted by shinobi while visuals straight from the game sealed his entrance!
In FULL Assassin’s Creed mode, “The Aerial Assassin” Will Ospreay HAS ARRIVED HOME in Wembley!

Will Ospreay posted to his social media after his appearance with these words:
“I never thought in my wildest dreams that I would become an official Assassin. Thank you to @assassinscreed and @Assassins_UK for believing in me and making my dreams come true.”
But, this isn’t the first time Assassin’s Creed has influenced Will Ospreay’s performance, nay nay! August 2024, just last year, he entered an event at the Wembley Arena in much the same fashion. It was a perfect promotion for Assassin’s Creed Shadows (maybe one reason why it was so big in the UK?) and showed off his love of one of Ubisoft’s largest franchises.
If you’re gonna make an entrance…
THAT IS HOW IT’S DONE.
Amazing, @WillOspreay!— Roger Craig Smith (@RogerCraigSmith) August 25, 2024
What’s even more incredible is the huge metaphorical nod that Will Ospreay received from Roger Craig Smith, who plays the legend himself, Ezio Auditore! Just makes you wonder the look on Ospreay’s face when he saw that post!
And the power of the Creed did not disappoint as Will Ospreay managed to trounce title-holding The Young Bucks with Swerve Strickland and claimed their EVP titles for themselves.
If you are not convinced about his dedication to the franchise and the Creed, just check out Ospreay’s movie called Hidden Blade.
That’s one ultimate fan move that should solidify his commitment to the Assassin’s Creed fandom and games!
