Kenny Omega’s return to AEW programming last week stirred anticipation and speculation among fans, especially after being sidelined since December 2023 due to diverticulitis.
The comeback of the former AEW World Champion happened on last week’s Dynamite, in his hometown of Winnipeg. In a defiant stance, Omega asserted his authority as an executive vice president of AEW, signaling his readiness to confront his fellow EVPs, The Elite comprising The Young Bucks, his former rival Kazuchika Okada and Jack Perry after outcasting him from the group, and attacking Tony Khan the week prior.
However, tensions escalated as The Elite ambushed The Cleaner, unleashing their fury with a devastating EVP Trigger, leaving Omega incapacitated and stretchered out of the arena. This shocking turn of events left fans wondering about Omega’s next move.
Now, AEW took to their official X to tease Kenny Omega dropping an “important announcement” for his scheduled appearance for this Wednesday’s Dynamite episode, set to take place at Rogers Place in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
“#AEWDynamite TOMORROW NIGHT, May 8! Edmonton, AB LIVE 8pm ET/7pm CT | @TBSNetwork After the beating he sustained last week in his hometown of Winnipeg at the hands of #theElite, what will EVP @KennyOmegamanX‘s Important Announcement be on #AEW Dynamite TOMORROW NIGHT?.”
With speculation running high and Kenny Omega’s announcement looming, AEW fans eagerly await this week’s edition of Dynamite, anticipating the revelation of Omega’s plans and the ramifications for The Elite and the wider AEW landscape.
