Don Callis breaks character with a heart-wrenching tribute to rival Kenny Omega amidst the AEW star's serious health issue
The former AEW World Champion, Kenny Omega, received a heartfelt tribute from his on-screen rival and former manager, Don Callis, as he is dealing with a serious health issue.
Kenny Omega has undoubtedly solidified himself as one of the greatest performers to ever grace the squared circle in the history of professional wrestling. The Cleaner has gained prominence by showcasing his incredible in-ring skills across the world. Moreover, he is one of the few wrestlers who achieved success without associating with WWE.
Omega has been one of the key factors in the success of AEW as well. Lately, Kenny was involved in a tag team with Chris Jericho known as The Golden Jets. The duo feuded with The Don Callis Family and were set to challenge for the AEW World Tag Team Championship as well. However, their momentum was halted.
It was revealed that Omega is suffering from diverticulitis and will be out of action indefinitely. Meanwhile, the wrestling world is wishing a speedy recovery for The Cleaner. Taking to Instagram, Kenny's current on-screen rival, Don Callis, broke his character and shared a tribute video for his former client.
"@kennyomegamanx @aew," Don Callis shared.
