Tony Khan Can't Wait For Kenny Omega To Return To AEW, 'The Roster's Better Than It's Ever Been'

Tony Khan is excited to get Kenny Omega back in the fold.

Even without Omega, many fans will still argue that the current AEW roster is one of the best rosters that the world of professional wrestling has ever seen. Even the roster's inactive list is stacked, as it includes names like Adam Cole, Bandido, Adam Copeland, Eddie Kingston, Jamie Hayter, Kota Ibushi, Miro, Britt Baker and Powerhouse Hobbs.

While speaking to WGN Radio 720 for a new interview, Khan was asked about the status of wrestlers like Jamie Hayter, Britt Baker, and Ricky Starks.

"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 pivoted to talking about the future return of Kenny Omega.

"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."
