Kenny Omega quits AEW due to health issues and is diagnosed with diverticulitis.
On December 15, 2023, AEW superstar Kenny Omega shocked to announce on social ** that he will not be returning to AEW racing anytime soon.
Kenny Omega and Chris Jericho have been trying to make a name for themselves in the AEW doubles in recent weeks as the "Golden Jets" duo. On the Dec. 13 episode of Dynamite, they had a promotional conversation with current champions Ricky Starks and Big Bill, but the segment was not well received by fans. In the pitch, Omega mistakenly referred to their team as "Winnipeg Jets", and Jericho's insult to the championship also seemed bland to the audience.
In this session, Omega and Jericho officially challenged for the AEW doubles title, and Bill and Starks accepted the challenge. The game is scheduled for a "Worlds End" paid** event on December 30. AEW announced the match via social ** 24 hours ago.
However, Kenny Omega made a bombshell statement on Social Media on December 15 that changed the course of the Tag Team Division. According to Omega, he has been suffering from the pain for a long time and is no longer able to endure it. He said the timeline for his return was unclear, writing
I can't put up with this. I will have an indefinite truce. I tried to endure the pain as much as I could until it became unbearable. Luckily, the doctor found out about my problem in time. In the meantime, I'll be here, so please keep enjoying wrestling!”
Kenny Omega has previously stated that he will opt to retire if injury issues persist in AEW.
According to a report from Sean Ross Sapp, the star has been feeling unwell this week and was eventually diagnosed with diverticulitis. Sapp wrote:
We learned that Kenny has been feeling unwell for the past week, even before the fight against Ethan Page. He still participated in the competition and publicity, after which he sought medical help and was diagnosed with diverticulitis after being taken to the hospital. Good luck to Kenny soon**.
Kenny Omega's most recent race at AEW was on the AEW Collision show on December 9th. On that occasion, he defeated Canadian ** Ethan Page in front of a crowd in Montreal.
The truce is undoubtedly a heavy blow to the top star of AEW, as well as an impact on AEW's schedule and doubles division. We wish Kenny Omega a speedy effort and look forward to his strong return to the Circle."
Closing Statement: Kenny Omega's absence from AEW due to health issues is a major challenge for his career and AEW as a whole. Omega is not only a highly talented wrestler, but also an icon in the hearts of fans. His absence will leave a big void in the AEW and remind us once again of the health risks that athletes face behind the glitz and glamour of the field.
We wish Kenny Omega a speedy day and look forward to his return to action in a stronger form. At the same time, it is also a reminder to all wrestling fans to cherish the dedication and sacrifice of every wrestler.
