Will Ospreay's split from Death Riders fuels upcoming AEW matchups
Will Ospreay officially quit the Death Riders faction on the July 29, 2026 episode of AEW Dynamite, ending a violent feud that began at Redemption where the group attacked him. The split was dramatized on Dynamite with a heated exchange of slaps between Ospreay and AEW World Champion Kenny Omega.
The following week, Ospreay faced Daniel Garcia on the July 30 AEW Collision broadcast from Detroit, using a Hidden Blade as retaliation for the Death Riders’ ambush. He is also slated to appear at AEW Grand Slam Mexico on August 5, where he will wrestle Mark Davis in a no‑outside‑interference singles match at Arena Mexico. The event marks Ospreay’s first solo match in Mexico and continues his storyline buildup toward a title challenge against Kenny Omega at All In 2026 in London.
Additional matches for Grand Slam Mexico were announced, including The Young Bucks teaming with Christian Cage and Adam Copeland against the Death Riders, and a high‑stakes three‑way bout for a Casino Gauntlet entry at All In. The ongoing tensions among Ospreay, Omega, Jon Moxley and the Death Riders remain central to AEW’s summer programming.
