Current Plans for Kenny Omega’s AEW Return Revealed

Kenny Omega is gearing up for his anticipated return to All Elite Wrestling, and it’s happening sooner than fans might expect.

After months of speculation, sources close to Fightful Select have confirmed that Omega’s AEW comeback is in the works, with plans to have him back before year’s end.

Omega has been absent from AEW programming for much of 2024, sidelined due to a battle with diverticulitis. Despite his health challenges, he’s stayed active in the wrestling world, most notably heading to Japan for his Wrestle Dynasty match against Gabe Kidd. Now, it seems the wheels are in motion for The Cleaner to make his grand return to AEW.

It was previously reported that Omega’s AEW return was in the cards before he left for Japan. Now, with the World’s End pay-per-view looming, sources say Omega is actively planned to appear at the event. While the specifics of his role remain under wraps, fans are already speculating how he’ll factor into the show.

In the meantime, Omega is expected to leave for Japan on January 1 or 2 to make an appearance at Wrestle Kingdom. Though he isn’t publicly booked for the event, his involvement with NJPW has many wondering how this will tie into his AEW storyline upon his return.

Kenny Omega’s return to AEW is shaping up to be a can’t-miss moment, with fans already buzzing about what surprises he’ll bring to the World’s End pay-per-view. Whether he’s stepping into the ring, cutting a fiery promo, or setting up his next big feud, one thing is for sure—The Cleaner is ready to remind everyone why he’s one of the best in the business.
