Summary

Callum Newman weighed in after Jon Moxley confronted Will Ospreay on the April 25 episode of AEW Collision, adding another bit of tension to Ospreay's already uneasy place between AEW and his old United Empire ties.

During the segment, Moxley told Ospreay he could either accept help and become everything he can be in AEW or finally settle the score over Moxley's steel chair attack at AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door last year. The scene ended without an answer when Ospreay forced the cameraman out of the room.

Social media reaction

After the segment aired, Newman posted on X that Ospreay should "go ahead and leave a second time," taking a direct shot at his United Empire stablemate.

Ospreay's United Empire tension

Newman's reaction fits with the friction that has been brewing since Ospreay returned to NJPW at New Year's Dash. Newman appeared ready to swing a chair at him that night before other United Empire members stepped in.

That history gives this latest comment a little more weight, especially with Ospreay's AEW future now being pushed into the spotlight by Moxley. It also follows another recent Newman headline, when he said he was under a long-term contract with NJPW.

What Moxley and Ospreay could lead to next

Moxley's offer put Ospreay in a position where he has to choose between joining forces with one of AEW's most dangerous names or escalating the issue into a personal fight. Newman's reaction does not change that decision, but it does underline that Ospreay's divided loyalties are now part of the story on both sides of his career.

If AEW keeps leaning into that split, the company has a clear way to deepen Ospreay's rivalry with Moxley while also keeping the United Empire tension alive in the background.
