Kenny Omega was last seen in action on the September 3 episode of AEW Dynamite, where he reunited with his former tag partner, Adam Page, and teamed with JetSpeed to unsuccessfully take on The Young Bucks and the Don Callis Family's Josh Alexander and Kyle Fletcher. After the match, The Best Bout Machine suffered a brutal ambush at the hands of The Protostar, who planted Kenny with a brainbuster through a table at ringside.

As a result of the attack, Omega had to be carried away on a stretcher and has been absent from the company's programming since then. On the latest edition of Collision, Brody King revealed that the former World Champion will team up with him and Bandido to take on the Callis Family's Josh Alexander and The Young Bucks next week on the Six-Year Anniversary episode of AEW Dynamite.

Omega has now taken to X/Twitter, sharing pictures from his time at the 2025 Tokyo Game Show and hyping his upcoming match scheduled for this Wednesday.

"Thank you to Square Enix for all of the care and love during Tokyo Game Show! See you all on Wednesday for the six year anniversary of Dynamite," wrote Kenny.

It remains to be seen what kind of shape Omega will be in for his in-ring comeback.


Bryan Danielson reflects on his AEW match with Kenny Omega

In what was undeniably one of the biggest dream matches in all of pro wrestling, Bryan Danielson wrestled Kenny Omega one-on-one at Dynamite: Grand Slam 2021, shortly after making his AEW debut at that year's All Out pay-per-view.

The American Dragon, who has now transitioned to the company's broadcast team, recently reflected on the match during an interview with Z100 New York. Danielson recalled standing across the ring from Omega at the start of the bout, stating:

"I don't rank things as far as what was the best crowd reaction or whatever, but it's a moment I'll never forget. I just remember looking across the ring at Kenny and the crowd reaction and thinking, what did I do to deserve this life? This is awesome, this is so cool. I was really, really excited for the match, and for the crowd to be as excited about the match as I was internally was just really cool."

Danielson vs. Omega at Grand Slam 2021 unfortunately ended in a time-limit draw, and the two stars have not locked up in a singles matchup since.
