Sting praises Kenny Omega

Retiring star Sting had glowing words of endorsement for Kenny Omega. Omega has been away from action after undergoing surgery for diverticulitis.

Now, The Vigilante spoke to Pro Wrestling Illustrated and gave Omega a glowing endorsement and said that he deserves all the accolades that he gets.

"Obviously, he’s been AEW World Champion, but, to me, sometimes how good he is goes underappreciated because he’s never been with WWE; some people think he doesn’t deserve his accolades. But he is one of the best all-around world heavyweight champions I’ve ever seen, one of the best in the wrestling industry," he said.

A match between the two would have been an interesting one given how great they are inside the ring.
