There have always been rumors circulating around Kenny Omega and why won't they. For many, he is the best professional wrestler in the world right now but he is not from WWE, by far the biggest wrestling promotion in the world; rather he's from New Japan Pro Wrestling.

Without a doubt, Kenny Omega is one of the reasons why NJPW has grown so much and there have always been rumors about Kenny coming back to WWE (well Kenny was part of WWE at a very early stage of his career).

Let's face it, if Kenny does make it to WWE, it could lead to some mouth-watering feuds that many fans would just love to watch. With that thought in mind, let's have a look at the top five feuds that Kenny Omega could be involved in when he steps into the world of WWE.


#5 Samoa Joe Vs Kenny Omega

The complete package
The complete package

When you look at Samoa Joe, you try to break him down to find what he lacks. But the question is, does he lack anything?

He has an amazing awe-inspiring presence in the ring. He can do stuff in the ring that not many of his or half his size can.

And then when you give him a mic and ask him to speak, he can kill any promo with an amazing charisma.

It's not wrong to say that Samoa Joe really is the complete package and if he's pitted against someone who is, just like him, an amazing performer, great with the crowd and able to pull out a good match against anybody, then this could become an enticing feud.

It could turn into a match between Samoa trying to put Kenny Omega to sleep while Kenny tries to avoid that and hit the home run on Joe.

#4 Seth Rollins Vs Kenny Omega

There was some heat between Kenny Omega and Seth Rollins when Seth Rollins started using a version of the move that Kenny has been using for a while now.

But keeping that aside, there's certainly no doubt that Rollins' stakes as a performer are on the ascendancy for a while now. He has been putting in matches day in day out with ridiculous consistency, that are better than any other match on Monday Night Raw.

Such has been his rise that there are rumors of Rollins main-eventing WrestleMania against Brock Lesnar.

So when one of the best performers steps into WWE and faces the best performer in WWE, what do you expect to happen?

This match has the potential to blow the roofs off and feature among the best matches of any PPV with any other wrestler on the card.

#3 Daniel Bryan Vs Kenny Omega

One of the best news that could have come out this year was the return to action of (The New?) Daniel Bryan. His retirement because of injuries always felt premature because it seemed like he still had a lot of unfinished business in WWE.

In just his first year back, he has already roped in the WWE championship and is slowly but surely taking over the reins of SmackDown from AJ Styles in an admirable fashion.

Bryan is one of the best performers in the world while Kenny Omega himself is claimed to be the best wrestler in the world.

When you have two wrestlers with such credentials, it's almost a no-brainer to bring them together and let them create magic in the ring with their superb skills and presentation.

#2 Shinsuke Nakamura Vs Kenny Omega

During the same night that Kenny Omega disbanded AJ Styles in NJPW, he'd challenged Shinsuke Nakamura. The feud never materialized but it surely will turn heads if both Kenny Omega and Shinsuke Nakamura end up going against each other at WWE.

Kenny Omega is currently the biggest star at NJPW while Shinsuke Nakamura held on to that mantle for a long, long time before moving on to the other challenges.

Both are capable of putting in some of the best matches in the history of wrestling. Nakamura has done that with AJ Styles in the past while Kenny has done it with Kazuchika Okada on multiple occasions.

This feud could be seen as the passing of the torch moment from Nakamura to Omega. All in all, it is a feud which many fans were teased with, but didn't happen in NJPW. If Kenny does move to WWE, then it would be a dream come true for many out there.

#1 AJ Styles Vs Kenny Omega

For so many reasons, this has to be the first feud that Kenny Omega needs to be involved in. There couldn't be a better story line

It was Kenny Omega who beat up AJ Styles on his last night at NJPW. It was Kenny Omega who disbanded AJ Styles from the Bullet Club, the club that was taken to the nest level by AJ Styles. And it was Kenny Omega that became the leader of the NJPW once AJ Styles moved to WWE.

When he steps into the WWE universe, AJ Styles could be the first to welcome him to WWE and both can renew the feud which never materialized in NJPW.

Two of the best wrestlers in the world going at it, that's one major dream come true for any hardcore fan.

All in all, If Kenny does step into a WWE ring, it could prove to be one grand success for WWE and a major boost to their ever-falling ratings.
