Kenny Omega tried some water with electrolytes and did not care for it.
On September 2, AEW announced that CM Punk had been terminated following an investigation into ain incident that involved him and Jack Perry at AEW All In. In 2023, Punk was infamously involved in an altercation with Kenny Omega and The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) following AEW All Out. Everyone involved was suspended, and Punk later returned to AEW in June 2023.
He was largely kept away from The Elite, as he was featured on AEW Collision while Omega and the Young Bucks competed on AEW Dynamite. The Young Bucks made their AEW Collision debut on September 2, just a few hours after Punk's release.
On the latest edition of Being The Elite, which premiered on September 4, Omega was upset after Matt Jackson made a bad business deal in selling the Hung Bucks trademark to John Silver. Hoping to boost his spirits, he tried what appeared to be Pepsi, and he did not care for it.
“I need a stiff drink of whatever the hell this is. [Drinks something] Ugh, what did I put in here? It tastes like lighter fluid," Omega said.
The Young Bucks then had some Chicago-style deep dish pizza, served with some Coca-Cola, and they clearly liked it.
U[date: Brandon Cutler noted that Omega was drinking some water with electrolytes, not Pepsi.
That’s a water bottle with electrolytes
