How else to end this list than with "The Cleaner" himself, Kenny Omega? Kenny has no doubt made himself out to be one of the greatest professional wrestlers, proving himself across North America, Japan, and now Mexico in AAA.

Omega has won nearly every championship in NJPW, many championships in DDT, and currently holds the top championship in AAA, the AAA Mega Championship. Kenny Omega, no matter where he goes, seems to be a surefire main eventer, wrestling phenomenal matches on a regular basis.

However, Kenny's run in AEW has been somewhat rocky. He has lost most of his big matches -- one to Chris Jericho in the first main event of an AEW show at Double or Nothing, to PAC at All Out, and then Jon Moxley at Full Gear.

Despite this, Kenny Omega still elicits a strong positive reaction from the crowd, remains a main eventer, and is a mainstay in the AEW weekly top 5 rankings.

If "The Cleaner" can clean up (pun regretfully intended) the AEW main event scene and overcome his obstacles on the path to the AEW World Championship, he will estabilish his legacy in professional wrestling for years to come.
