Kenny Omega's path to recovery has continued with a big move.
Fightful Select's Sean Ross Sapp has learned that Kenny Omega underwent surgery last week to aid in the recovery from diverticulitis. Omega underwent surgery in New York on May 16, which is why some fans had posted pictures with him in the area.
There are currently no creative plans for Omega in AEW at the time, and they're expecting a lengthy recovery. Omega had been sidelined since mid-December 2023 before being pulled from the World's End PPV. Omega returned to TV to be written off for a while by The Elite, who attacked him.
We send our best wishes to Kenny Omega and hope for a speedy recovery.
