Kenny Omega Comments On NJPW Relationship, Top AEW Stars On Who They Want To Sign

Publish date: 2024-05-05

During the Starrcast III kickoff event, Being The Elite Mailbag Live, Kenny Omega answered the question on many NJPW fans’ minds. When asked if he would return for Wrestle Kingdom 14 or further NJPW shows, Omega was quoted as doing “a Mr. Burns impression” while saying “when pigs fly.” He elaborates that he’s beaten everyone he wants to beat in the promotion outside of one match. Previous reporting indicates that his AEW contract allows him to compete in NJPW, but the promotion isn’t interested in booking the former IWGP Champion.

Kenny slightly sarcastically said he's been looking at the phone and no one's calling. Doesn't think it's going to happen. Says he's wrestled anyone there already pretty much anyway. Just had one match he wanted.

Another fan asked the group of AEW stars who they’d like to see in the promotion. Their answers are varied, although all would be fine additions to the roster. Nick Jackson would bring in Okada, Kenny Omega wants Will Ospreay and Kota Ibushi, and Scorpio Sky wants Tessa Blanchard.

Matt Jackson would like to work with Marty Scrull, and a further question about Villain Enterprises entering as a group was also posed. Matt stated that current contracts prevent them from coming to the promotion, but he’d love to have them, and he’s spoken with Brody King recently.

Oh and now Hangman is saying Joey Ryan.
