Kenny Omega Stopped From Sending Triplemania Message

Former AEW World Champion Kenny Omega was apparently stopped from sending a message in for Triplemania by legal issues, according to Konnan.

Kenny Omega apparently remains suspended by AEW due to the fallout after the All Out pay-per-view in September. An alleged fight took place backstage for which Omega, The Young Bucks, CM Punk, and company producer Ace Steel were suspended, although the company has not confirmed this.

Omega also has a relationship with Mexican promotion AAA and was previously the company’s Mega Champion and is now the number one contender for that title.

Speaking on his Keepin’ It 100 podcast, former WCW star Konnan – who works for AAA – revealed that he asked Omega to film a video to be played at the recent Triplemania show after the match for the Mega Championship between El Hijo del Vikingo and Rey Fenix but Omega apparently said he couldn’t due to legal issues:

“I actually asked Kenny Omega if he could send me a video for TripleMania whoever wins between [El Hijo del] Vikingo and [Rey] Fenix cause he’s the number one contender and he goes, ‘I still can’t because of legal issues.’ So there is something legal going on.”

El Hijo del Vikingo retained his AAA Mega Championship in his bout against the Lucha Brothers star. The future of Kenny Omega still remains unclear.
