Kenny Omega seemingly takes a massive dig at released WWE Superstar on AEW Dynamite

The controversy continued on AEW Dynamite as Kenny Omega mocked released star Ace Steel during the Elite vs. Death Triangle match for the Trios Championship.

After CM Punk’s infamous media scrum, a backstage melee followed. It involved the Second City Saint and his trainer Ace Steel against the Young Bucks and Kenny Omega.

While there have been conflicting reports about what exactly happened, some reports have claimed that Ace Steel bit the Best Bout Machine. The former WWE producer was reportedly released by Tony Khan merely weeks after making his first televised appearance on Dynamite to help CM Punk rediscover his fire.

As part of the ongoing best-of-seven series between the Elite and Death Triangle for the AEW Trios Championship, the two teams faced off on Dynamite for their second match. During their clash, Kenny Omega bit his opponent in a clear mockery of the incident with Ace Steel back in September.

OMG lol.

This wasn’t the only callback spot we saw during the match as the former AEW World Champion made the sleeping gesture made famous by CM Punk. It was a bold gesture, considering the show is taking place in the latter's hometown of Chicago this week.

However, the Young Bucks lost for the second straight time. The Death Triangle used a hammer again, this time on Matt Jackson, to pick up the pinfall. This puts the champions up 2-0 in the best-of-seven series.

With all these references to CM Punk in the space of a few minutes, could we see the Second City Saint make yet another return to professional wrestling? Only time will tell.
