Tony Khan Remains “Hopeful” and “Optimistic” About Kenny Omega’s AEW Return From Recovery

Kenny Omega has been sidelined since December, when he was diagnosed with diverticulitis.

Near-death

The former AEW World Heavyweight Champion received the diagnosis after the December 13th Dynamite show, as he was clearly in pain backstage. Omega was told when diagnosed that he was very lucky he went in because the situation could have been catastrophic.

The top star could’ve got a blood infection if he wasn’t diagnosed at the time he was, which would have something like a 50 percent chance of death.

While speaking with Comic Book, AEW President Tony Khan was asked about Omega’s status.

“I don’t want to put pressure on it,” Khan stated. “He was really in a bad way. I don’t want to put a timetable or try to rush him back, but I’m optimistic we’ll see Kenny Omega again.”

Khan added, “Certainly, it’s something for all the fans to look forward to. I think everybody’s just going to go crazy when Kenny does come back, which I think we’re all very optimistic about.”

We wish Omega a speedy recovery.
