"He came backstage," Ospreay began. "My ass was killing me. I came back and I planted myself down and I was crying."

Ospreay continued, "He went, ‘Mr. Ospreay’, and he took my hand. I looked up and it was Ric. I stood up and I was like, ‘Yes, sir.’ He was like, ‘You are everything I’ve heard of and more. You’re the best guy here right now."
