AEW is coming to Winnipeg, and Kenny Omega is set to be at the show.
Former AEW World Champion Kenny Omega has been sidelined since December due to diverticulitis. A the time, he announced that he would be sidelined indefinitely. Subsequent updates made it clear that Omega was very sick. It has been evident that he would be out of action for quite some time.
In a tweet on April 23, the Canada Life Centre announced that fans would be seeing Kenny Omega there when AEW Dynamite comes to Winnipeg on May 1.
Omega recently provided an update on his recovery while speaking on his Twitch stream. He made it clear that he would have to get the issue taken care of.
“The first time I take someone’s double foot stomp, even if it’s Marko Stunt or Riho, something is probably going to blow,” Kenny Omega said. “Even if Dobby walks on my belly, that’s a 21-pound cat. As good as I feel right now in my day to day and training, once impact starts to get involved or you have to use your core to do heavy lifts, that’s when things start to get dangerous. I’m going to have to make sure it’s all taken care of.”
AEW has yet to announce Kenny Omega for the May 1 episode of AEW Dynamite. WrestleZone will provide more information as it becomes available.
