#2 Establishing Kenny Omega's road to redemption

A way forward

AEW has been pretty smart about their booking, despite some unforeseen setbacks. They have been dynamic and have rolled with the punches. In the case of Kenny Omega, his match with Jon Moxley had to be changed. Despite that, they managed to craft a storyline, even without Moxley in the picture.

As mentioned, Kenny Omega is not actually well known to US audiences. And, with AEW on TNT, he will be most certainly introduced. During an interview with Collider Live, Chris Jericho stated the same and said,

"We've got a lot of guys to build. Because if you're going to a nationwide wrestling audience, they know Chris Jericho, Jim Ross, Jon Moxley, Dustin Rhodes..they might remember Cody...Other than that, there's a really a whole new collection of guys."

"Of course, the hardcore wrestling fan knows The Young Bucks and Kenny Omega, Pentagon and Fenix, but now we have to introduce them to a nationwide audience and get them over one-by-one. You can't put 40 new guys on TV. We have to take our time, to build everyone properly one-by-one."

The storyline with Kenny Omega has already been teed up for AEW on TNT. The hope will be that fans will be tuning each week to see how he fares.

So, in time, the hope is fans will get to know the Omega that thrilled audiences over in NJPW.
