Top AEW Star Admits Fear of Competing Against Kazuchika Okada

As a long-time wrestling enthusiast with memories of legendary matches etched into my mind, I must say that the dynamic between Kenny Omega and Kazuchika Okada is nothing short of captivating. Having witnessed their epic battles in NJPW, I eagerly await the opportunity to see them square off within the confines of AEW.


Kazuchika Okada made his AEW debut earlier this year and has been fighting at the top tier ever since. Just a few weeks into his tenure, he clinched the AEW Continental Championship in a match against Eddie Kingston.

Originally a popular wrestler in NJPW and recently a highly sought-after free agent, he opted to join AEW over WWE despite strong offers from the latter. After joining the promotion, Okada stepped in for his rival, Kenny Omega, within The Elite. Earlier, due to Omega’s inactivity, The Young Bucks made the decision to dismiss him from their faction. This eventuality paved the way for Okada to become a part of their group.

As a devoted fan, I’ve been missing the electrifying energy that Kenny Omega brings to the ring since his absence due to diverticulitis, which began in December 2023. However, the wait ended on the May 1st edition of Dynamite when he made a long-awaited appearance. The moment was tense as he faced off against Kazuchika Okada. Unfortunately, the excitement was short-lived as Jack Perry and The Young Bucks attacked him, delivering an EVP Trigger. After this brutal assault, Kenny Omega had to be stretchered out of the arena, leaving us all hoping for his swift recovery and return to action.

Currently out due to an injury, Omega suggested a couple of weeks back that if he gets the necessary medical approval on time, he might join forces with Tanahashi to challenge The Bucks at Wrestle Dynasty. Similarly, The Bucks revealed their participation at Wrestle Dynasty several weeks ago. With these updates unfolding, the previous AEW World Champion Kenny Omega has expressed concern about going up against Kazuchika Okada in his current physical condition.

Kenny Omega opens up about current state of AEW & facing Kazuchika Okada

As a gaming enthusiast, I’m pumped up about the news that Kenny Omega is making a special appearance at the NJPW Power Struggle event on November 4! I had a chat with NJPW, and Omega opened up about the situation in AEW while he was away. He shared how going head-to-head with Kazuchika Okada left him drained to the core. He even confessed that he saw Okada as a formidable adversary and felt a bit of trepidation about facing him, given his current condition.

Kenny Omega has been vocal about his longtime rival Kazuchika Okada. These two wrestling legends have given us some truly memorable matches in the past. As of now, it’s expected that Omega will come back at Wrestle Dynasty and possibly join forces with Tanahashi. The upcoming event promises to be exciting as fans are keen to see Omega and Okada square off within the AEW arena. However, the main question is whether Omega will pass his in-ring medical checks, given the anticipation among fans for their potential encounter.
