Big update on how much time Kenny Omega has left on his AEW contract - reports
Kenny Omega might not have much time left on his AEW contract if the latest reports are any indication.
The Cleaner, one of the original AEW roster members, has been a cornerstone of the company since its inception. Omega initially signed a four-year deal with the promotion in 2019, which is expected to run through 2023.
Dave Meltzer has now shed light on the remaining length of time left on Omega's contract. While speaking on Wrestling Observer Radio, the wrestling journalist noted that the 38-year-old star's contract will likely expire on February 1, 2023.
Although there's no word on whether Kenny Omega will re-sign with the promotion once his current deal expires, Tony Khan has the liberty to activate a two-year extension on any member from the original roster.

I personally think he’s going to re sign with AEW like the bucks did. https://t.co/xDPoceo9tp
The company's head honcho activated the option on The Young Bucks, whose contract was extended by two years.
Omega has enjoyed a fruitful run with the promotion thus far, becoming the longest-reigning AEW World Champion in history. He became a pioneer for cross-promotion wrestling when the forbidden door was flung open between AEW and IMPACT Wrestling last year.
Given his list of accolades over the past few years, wrestling enthusiasts will be hoping to see Omega stick with the promotion for the foreseeable future.
