Kenny Omega meets a ghost from his past 7 years later on AEW Dynamite
Kenny Omega was in action in the opening match of AEW Dynamite this week. The Best Bout Machine encountered a ghost from his past after many years, creating a highly memorable moment.
The 'ghost' in question is Elite member and AEW Continental Champion Kazuchika Okada.
Dynamite kicked off with an All-Star eight-man tag team match. The Elite, comprising The Young Bucks, Okada, and Ricochet, battled the team of Kenny Omega, Kevin Knight, Mark Briscoe, and “Speedball” Mike Bailey.
The match showcased some explosive tag team wrestling as both teams brought their A-game to the squared circle. However, fans erupted in the final moments of the bout when Omega and Okada came face-to-face in the ring.
The crowd inside the Chartway Arena in Norfolk, Virginia, was thrilled to see the rivals face off in the squared circle after seven years. The last time The Rainmaker and The Cleaner clashed in a ring was in 2018 at the NJPW Dominion 6.9 in Osaka-jo Hall event.
Despite the iconic moment created, Omega's side fell short against The Elite. However, it seems that the seeds may have been planted for another blockbuster showdown between Kenny Omega and Kazuchika Okada in AEW soon.
