Kenny Omega is widely regarded as one of the best professional wrestlers in the entire world. This is a rare title to be given out to someone who has never fought for the biggest wrestling promotion, World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE).
Now the time has come though that Kenny may finally be joining forces with WWE.
Omegas contract with AEW is coming to a close and wrestling insider Dave Meltzer reports that the WWE is interested in signing him. You can read more about Kenny’s contract and potential WWE career here:
Popular WWE superstar Booker T has now shared his input on Kenny Omega joining forces with WWE. He stated on the recent instalment of the Hall Of Fame podcast https://www.wrestlinginc.com/1205911/booker-t-comments-on-the-possibility-of-kenny-omega-leaving-aew-for-wwe/ that it would be a massive loss for All Elite Wrestling (AEW) if this happened:
“Losing someone like Kenny Omega, that would be a big loss. That would be huge, that really, would. Just because he was one of those guys who put that thing all together. He was one of the brains behind AEW.”
As stated in the article linked above my personal belief is that Kenny would hugely benefit from going to the WWE. Booker T seemed to share this opinion:
“I don’t know how many years Kenny Omega has left in the ring. WWE would make Kenny Omega’s star shine brighter than any other place he ever could be in. If Omega was to sign with WWE, he would likely be presented as one of their biggest stars and potentially work at WrestleMania. If you don’t work at WrestleMania, you know throughout your career, you missed out on something. I can understand why Kenny Omega would want to mix it up with AJ Styles, two of the best at what they do, at WrestleMania.”
Kenny will have a lot to consider while making his decision. Time will tell if the star will continue to build his brand in AEW or if the star will finally join forces with the WWE.
