Kenny Omega staying in Japan for one more year

[The Prince of All Saiyans]

Its a work and meltz is in on it.

god damnit

I was reading this and the replies before I had to come to this one

 

[Superkick Party]

Did anyone really expect Kenny to leave?

 

[cartierhoe]

Really didn't make much sense considering the year he's had, why come so far just to leave and not accomplishing the biggest prize

 

[Reality Check]

Just announced on Wrestling Observer Radio. Did it LeBron "Decision" style with Meltzer and Alvarez.

Says he'll be returning to Japan in mid Feb to finalize a new deal. Wanted to say something now so people didn't get their hopes up for the Rumble. Wants to have another big match with Kota Ibushi. Young Bucks contracts expire next year too, so all 3 would potentially be free agents all at once.

I thought the Young Bucks signed a 2 year deal with ROH/NJPW a month ago. That would make them free agents in Dec 2018/Jan 2019

Great choice Omega

Yeah it is... but Omega is now coming back to New Japan and he's gonna have to deal with this mutherfukker

This may be the OCD in me talking, but the fact Dave gets anything done in that room is an accomplishment in itself.

Is that an actual rolodex??

Those matches will be

Better than him dealing with these motherfukkers

Spoiler: smh

 

[Buggsy Mogues]

Another year of high profile/main event matches under his belt in Japan will rise his stock even further as a performer. We know he can put on quality matches and so far we've seen just with the few limited opportunities he's had so far, he can rise to the occasion at the main event level. He has shown he can reach that level, now he has to show he can maintain it.

Why would NJPW heat him up that much when they know he's only there for another year before he goes to WWE

They would have literally no motivation to do that, or to give him any sort of decent title run.

Unless this is a work like some ppl in this thread have said, I think Kenny just played himself

 

[MenacingMonk]

They need to let him be champ by the time they hold the LBC shows.
