It looks like fans will have to wait quite a bit longer before Kenny Omega makes his AEW return.
Kenny Omega has been out of action ever since late 2021 when he dropped the AEW World Championship to Hangman Adam Page. There has been no concrete timetable ever set for his return as he is apparently nursing a whole list of injuries and issues that have been bothering him for some time.
Of course fans have wondered and speculated on when Kenny Omega may return, with a lot of fans hoping he may be back in time for AEW’s Double Or Nothing. However, according to Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio, this doesn’t seem that likely:
“I don’t know where (Kenny) Omega is as far as recovery on everything. But I don’t think he’s gonna make the May PPV. I don’t know that, the last I heard, it didn’t sound promising for May.”
– Dave Meltzer
Kenny Omega was voted by fans as the wrestler of the year in the most recent Wrestling Observer Awards, so it isn’t surprising at all that there is a while host of fans wanting to see him back as soon as possible. We hope he makes a speedy recovery and comes back better than ever whenever he is ready to.
