5 wrestling rumors we hope are true and 5 we hope aren't: WWE's stunning contract offer to Kenny Omega, Lesnar saves 3 WWE legends

#4. Hope is true: WWE's insane offer to Kenny Omega

Kenny Omega in WWE has been a long standing dream that many wrestling fans have hoped for. While some are skeptical and believe that he would be placed in the mid-card, the other side of fans have reminded them that the same was mentioned about AJ Styles.

WWE hasn't been shy about their interest in Omega and they've offered big money to sign The Cleaner. As you can see, things didn't work out for them as Omega has chosen to commit to All Elite Wrestling, even ending his legendary tenure in Japan.

According to Dave Meltzer on the Wrestling Observer Radio, WWE was willing to sign Omega and gave him quite an exciting offer.

"I'm not sure anything would have worked for sure. I think if they would have promised him a WrestleMania match that was going to go 35 minutes with AJ Styles and offered him more than 3 million a year, I think they would have had a chance. Maybe even a good chance. I don't know how close he came, but he was in fact, very impressed and very interested in their offer."

We hope this is true because Omega being so highly valued by WWE opens the door to big business someday.
