Despite the heartbreak, Omega expressed gratitude for the unwavering support of the AEW fanbase. “One thing I didn’t lose was the support of you people. You always reminded me that I had a place to call home in AEW,” he said, showing his appreciation for those who stood by him through the darkest times.
