Will Ospreay is one of the most popular stars in pro wrestling today despite never working in the WWE. He also has one of the most unique set of moves that he uses in his matches. One such move is his finisher Hidden Blade that was used by WWE star Tama Tonga on this week's SmackDown. The Bloodline member got brutally trolled by fans for using Ospreay's move.
On this week's episode of SmackDown, the Tama Tonga and JC Mateo represented the MFTs in a tag team match against Shinsuke Nakamura and Rey Fenix. In the closing moments of the match, Solo Sikoa caused a distraction after which Tama Tonga hit Rey Fenix with a Hidden Blade to win the match.
WWE Commentator Michael Cole referred to the move as "running elbow" while calling the match but fans recognised it to be the Aerial Assassin's finisher. This led to a lot of fans trolling the former WWE Tag Team Champion on X (formerly known as Twitter).

Will Ospreay is currently on hiatus due to injury
The Aerial Assassin teamed up with Swerve Strickland to face the Young Bucks at AEW All In: Texas. It was reported that he suffered an injury during the match and Ospreay also announced it on an episode of Dynamite. He then competed in a 5v5 Lights Out Steel Cage match at the Forbidden Door pay-per-view next month.
After the match, Will Ospreay was attacked by Moxley's Death Riders faction to write him off television. The attack happened so Ospreay can take some time off and heal the herniated disc in his C2 and C6.
Fans are hoping for Ospreay's speedy recovery. It will be interesting to see when the former AEW International Champion will make his much awaited return.
