Kenny Omega: "WWE is desperate."

Posted By: Joe West on Sep 29, 2021

Kenny Omega was recently interviewed by Tokyo Sports, where he spoke about the power structure of the wrestling industry.

“At the start, there was a huge gap between WWE and AEW. (AEW) was just some fledgling promotion after all. But have you realized how the tables have turned? WWE is desperate. They keep bringing back Legends every other week. COVID is a terrible thing, and we never wanted it to happen but it is what it is.”

Omega also spoke about the ongoing issues in the Japanese wrestling scene.

“In fact the Japanese wrestlers haven’t been able to attract the fans purely by their ability, much less thought about ways to do it. For example, I was in Japan for 10 years. Hypothetically let’s say if I only spoke English the whole time, and Michael Nakazawa did all my interpretation. The fans will be impressed by my genius way of thinking. I’d have convinced myself I was a genius and be at ease knowing I have the fans’ support. If I had continue on only speaking English…and if Michael suddenly retires and disappears from wrestling-related work, what would’ve happen to me?”
