Kenny Omega wants rematch with former WWE Champion in AEW

Kenny Omega recently voiced his interest in a rematch against a former WWE Champion in AEW. The talent in consideration is Bryan Danielson.

The American Dragon sparked his rivalry with Omega shortly after his AEW debut at All Out 2021. Around two weeks later, the two men wrestled to a time-limit draw in a dream match on Dynamite: Grand Slam 2021.

Danielson re-kindled his feud with the former AEW World Champion in March 2023 when he turned heel alongside the Blackpool Combat Club and attacked Omega. The BCC defeated The Elite in an Anarchy In The Arena match at Double or Nothing 2023. Unfortunately, the hostilities between the top factions did not lead to a second clash between Omega and Danielson.

While interacting with fans on his Twitch stream, Omega spoke about squaring off against the former WWE World Heavyweight Champion for the first time in the Arthur Ashe Stadium. The Cleaner shared his views regarding a rematch between himself and Danielson.

"That was a real fun one. I feel like now that we've seen a fair share of stuff in AEW, and I feel like we've both been through the ringer a little bit, physically. I think a second match between us in AEW would probably be visually a lot different, I think, the stakes would be a lot different. So I think it would be exciting to do another match with Danielson. I feel that that could be something that - at least for me, something would transcend a normal day at the office." [37:16 - 37:52]
