Kenny Omega is one of the greatest wrestlers to have graced the ring. He recently had a highly competitive match with one of his greatest rivals, Kazuchika Okada, at AEW All In 2025. Kenny's ex-teammate Nick Jackson recently spoke about his match with Okada and shared that they felt that this might be the last match between the two legends.

Kenny's rivalry with the Rainmaker began in 2016, following the former's victory in the G1 Climax tournament in New Japan Pro-Wrestling. The two men had four extremely engaging matches in the promotion. Their fifth match took place last month at the Jacksonville-based promotion's All In: Texas pay-per-view.

In conversation with Justin Barrasso of the Undisputed podcast, Nick Jackson of the Young Bucks shared what he felt while watching the match.

“I’m not even sure why–maybe it had to do with not being able to be ringside for this one like we were in all the other matches. We were so blessed to have gotten the opportunity to watch them wrestle together again. Who knows if that was the last time? I’m just happy we got to see it happen,” said Nick Jackson. (H/T Fightful)

He also mentioned in the interview that the matches between the two men helped build the revolution that became AEW.

"Seeing some of the guys around me that I traveled up and down the roads with now retiring, or moving on to different roles, and then watching two of the all-time greats put together what felt like an epilogue made me ask myself, where does the time go? That made me more profoundly emotional than I ever would've imagined," Matt said. (H/T Fightful)

The Young Bucks and the two rivals have had a huge impact on professional wrestling over the past decade. Kazuchika Okada is set to defend his AEW Unified Championship against Swerve Strickland at the upcoming Forbidden Door event.
