Tony Khan finally breaks silence on Kenny Omega's AEW future amid WWE rumors
Kenny Omega has reportedly found himself on WWE's radar and, by some accounts, the promotion is gunning to sign him. In light of these advances, Tony Khan has now broken his silence on Triple H's alleged interest and simply appealed to Omega.
Kenny Omega, alongside The Young Bucks and Cody Rhodes, launched AEW with Tony Khan, and the men were all collectively made Executive Vice Presidents. However, since then Cody has returned to WWE and many fans are now wondering if Omega will be the next to go.
During one of his segments on the AEW Revolution Post Show Media Scrum, Khan briefly touched on the matter and seemed to appeal to The Cleaner by stating that he hopes to see him stay in AEW.
"He's one of the best stars in the world. I hope he’s here for a very long time," Tony Khan said. (H/T: Comicbook.com).

What's with this strange aura? Why does something feel so ominous right now? I didn't know and I couldn't figure it out." (H/T: Fightful)
