Kenny Omega Reveals Hopeful Plans For His AEW Return Match: Opponent, Date, Location
AEW’s Best Bout Machine has been shelved for nearly a year. Kenny Omega stepped away from the ring in December 2023 after being diagnosed with diverticulitis, an inflammatory condition within the intestine that can be fatal if not treated promptly and properly. This past May, Omega made a one-off appearance on AEW Dynamite to provide an update on his condition and recovery, revealing that his stomach is effectively a ticking time bomb moving forward but he has full intention to get back in the ring. Omega underwent successful surgery at some point over the summer. The surgery claimed some of his abdominal strength.
