The worst kept secret in pro wrestling has been confirmed. Kenny Omega returned this week on AEW Dynamite. This is his first appearance since stepping away last November due to various injuries. Omega teamed with The Young Bucks against Andrade El Idolo, Rush, and Dragon Lee in the opening match in the AEW Trios Tournament.
Omega got his trademark introduction from Justin Roberts and he got a massive pop from the crowd. Omega wrestled with a brace on his shoulder and a compression top. This also marked the return of Don Callis and Michael Nakazawa.
Omega favored his shoulder, ribs and knee and the announcers noted that he hasn’t fully recovered from his injuries. Omega won the match for his team after hitting the One Winged Angel on Dragon Lee, which means that The Elite moves on to the semi-finals in the Trios Tournament.
