AEW President Tony Khan is looking forward to having Kenny Omega back in the mix.
Even without Omega, many fans believe that the current AEW roster is among the best in pro wrestling history. The inactive list is just as impressive, with names like Adam Cole, Bandido, Adam Copeland, Eddie Kingston, Jamie Hayter, Kota Ibushi, Miro, Britt Baker, and Powerhouse Hobbs.
In a recent interview with “WGN Radio 720,” Khan was asked about the status of Jamie Hayter, Britt Baker, and Ricky Starks.
He said, “Well, those are some of the great wrestlers that have been top stars, top champions in AEW, all of them. In each case, I’d love to get each one of them back here. They’re all different cases, some injuries and some different things going on, but I think all three are great wrestlers, they’re all very different situations, so they’d be different updates, but I have very, very high praise I put on all three of those wrestlers you brought up.”
Khan then discussed the potential return of Omega. He said,
“We have a lot of other great wrestlers that are away right now, too. I can’t wait to get Executive Vice President and former Triple Crown Champion, the only person to hold World Titles in AEW, in Trios, Tag Team, and AEW World Champion, Kenny Omega. One of the greatest of all time. We can’t wait to get Kenny back. There are a lot of great wrestlers in AEW that are unavailable right now for different reasons, mostly due to injuries, and I can’t wait to get them all back in. But certainly, right now, the roster is better than it’s ever been, and it’s only going to keep getting better week in and week out as we get more people healthy and back on the active roster.”
Omega last wrestled on the December 5th episode of AEW Collision. His most recent appearance was on the May 1st episode of AEW Dynamite.
