Kenny Omega was initially set to team up with Chris Jericho to pursue the AEW World Tag Team Championships. However, he is currently sidelined due to diverticulitis. Despite his absence, Omega’s name has been referenced on Dynamite, and he has been promoted for AEW events in Canada, hinting at a potential return timeline.
In recent times, Omega encountered a life-threatening situation with a 50% chance of death due to severe illness. Reports emerged suggesting that his essential surgery for recovery had been postponed, necessitating an indefinite break from his professional obligations.
Fans have been curious about Omega’s potential return, especially considering his prior advertisements for AEW shows in Winnipeg in May.
Dave Meltzer, speaking on Wrestling Observer Radio, shed light on the situation, indicating that Omega’s inclusion in the Canadian events was likely orchestrated to facilitate his appearance on television in two weeks’ time.
“Omega was advertised for Canada so he could be on TV two weeks from now,” Meltzer confirmed.
However, Meltzer clarified that Omega might not engage in wrestling but could simply make an appearance, potentially addressing his expulsion from the Elite. The specifics of Omega’s return and how AEW will handle it remain to be seen.
