Kenny Omega has been away from AEW programming for months, dealing with a harrowing battle with Diverticulitis since December. Fans of the former AEW and IWGP Champion can breathe a sigh of relief, as "The Cleaner" is returning to AEW programming, at least for one night.
On last night’s "Dynamite," AEW announced that Kenny Omega would be in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada for next week's episode of "Dynamite." It will mark Kenny Omega's first appearance on AEW television since before AEW World's End. Kenny Omega had initially been slated to team with Chris Jericho to challenge Ricky Starks and Big Bill for the AEW World Tag Team Championship but a bout of diverticulitis forced him to be pulled from the event. According to Kenny Omega, the illness nearly cost him his life.
Kenny Omega has been away from AEW programming but has still been communicating with fans via his Twitch channel, where the former AEW World Tag Team Champion streams games and tells stories. Kenny Omega has said the illness has left him with "good days" and "bad days" and that it's still too soon to see if he will be able to recover without requiring surgery. Kenny Omega has said his pain is decreasing but training and taking impacts on his abdomen are still a struggle and recovery is a long way off.
