At present, Kenny Omega and Chris Jericho are signed with All Elite Wrestling. Jericho defeated Omega in the main event of Double of Nothing, bagging a shot at the AEW World title. This rivalry goes way back to when the two faced each other at NJPW Wrestle Kingdom.

Back in 2017, Omega was set to face Jericho at Wrestle Kingdom 12. At the WK12 Press Conference, Omega talked about respecting Jericho's career path, and wanting to do the same himself.

When I was a child, I saw Chris Jericho. He went from wrestling in Japan, to Mexico, to ECW, WCW, WWE, and I really respected that path, and I thought to myself, that's gonna be me someday. I'm gonna be just like Chris Jericho. I'm gonna wrestle all around the world, bring respect to my name, become the greatest performer.
