On Under The Mat With Simon Miller, Paul Wight praised the current crop of wrestlers — singling out Will Ospreay’s work ethic — and reflected on a career that has seen him rub shoulders with legends from Flair and Hogan to Bret Hart. He called today’s men’s and women’s talent an “influx” of athletic, diversified performers that keep the business evolving.

Wight singled out Kenny Omega as someone he’d love to either tag with or face, and said a heel program against Darby Allin would be “ridiculous,” even invoking an old-school post‑stretch slam image when imagining the match. He also provided a physique update — currently 393 lbs and targeting 360 lbs — and reiterated plans to return to the ring for AEW before retiring.

Kota Ibushi took to Instagram to update fans on his recovery from a broken femur, admitting bluntly that “my femur isn’t attached yet” and adopting a resolute “challenge, challenge, challenge” mindset as he rehabilitates. The veteran reflected on his lengthy fighting career, referenced a failed moonsault and a second trip to the ring in six months, and said he’s focused on daily growth and getting the bones healthy again.

Ibushi broke his femur in an October 2025 match with Josh Alexander and has frequently shared progress reports on social media, remaining optimistic about returning to action. The update underscores both the severity of the injury and Ibushi’s determination to continue his recovery and eventual comeback.
