The current AEW World Champion, Kenny Omega, was ranked number one in this year's PWI 500. Shortly afterwards, Omega engaged in a social media altercation with Will Ospreay but reports have now suggested that there are currently no plans for a match between the two.
According to The Wrestling Observer Newsletter, it was reported that Omega and Ospreay might not cross paths with one another. Despite the social media back-and-forth between the two, the two former NJPW colleagues aren't likely to cross paths inside the squared circle.
In this year's PWI 500, Ospreay was ranked number seven. Taking to Twitter, the former IWGP World Heavyweight Champion wrote, I’d beat up number 1 any day of the week and twice on Wednesdays…just saying.” The aforementioned tweet from Ospreay was clearly a dig at Kenny Omega.
Here's the tweet from Will Ospreay:
In response to the tweet from Ospreay, Kenny Omega wrote that NJPW has been ice cold since he left. The AEW World Champion even mentioned that one of the guys from the New Japan roster should've been the guy when Omega left. He also indirectly referenced Roman Reigns to conclude:
Ospreay then responded to the former Bullet Club leader by mentioning that since he left New Japan, the promotion has sold out Madison Square Garden and also sold more tickets at the Tokyo Dome.
The leader of The United Empire even told Omega to open The Forbidden Door, thus teasing a match between the two:
Could Kenny Omega and Will Ospreay have a match at some point down the road?
Considering that AEW is in a working relationship with NJPW, chances are that Kenny Omega could have a match with Will Ospreay at some point down the road. It is only a matter of when the two promotions decide to run an angle between the two and have Ospreay and Omega cross paths.
As things stand though, Kenny Omega is currently in a feud against Bryan Danielson. Whereas, Ospreay is expected to introduce a new member of The United Empire at the upcoming NJPW Autumn Attack shows.
