The two men wrestled to a 30-minute draw at the Grand Slam edition of AEW Dynamite on September 22, 2021. It was a dream match that was highly anticipated by all corners of the wrestling industry, and it lived up to the hype, being considered one of the best matches of 2021.
But what did Kenny Omega think of all of it? Speaking with Dave Meltzer in an in-depth interview for Wrestling Observer Radio, Omega called the match and the occasion a very special moment for him.
Omega also thought that he and Bryan had done Tony Khan and the rest of AEW proud with their match.
The match was highly praised by readers of Meltzer’s Wrestling Observer Newsletter, who voted it the third best wrestling match of 2021.
Kenny Omega will remain on the shelf for the foreseeable future
With Omega being the workaholic that he is, it is understandable to hear that the former AEW world champion was aiming to be back in the wrestling ring a mere three months into his supposed time off.
However, due to various circumstances such as booking appointments, COVID-19 and needing to have his injuries heal properly rather than just temporaily, Omega will be out of action for a little longer than first anticipated.
