6 huge Superstars WWE lost to their competition 

#2 Kenny Omega

Omega has reportedly turned down multiple offers from WWE, despite working there many years ago.

In recent years, Kenny Omega has established himself as one of the greatest wrestlers in the world today.

One of the most iconic stars of New Japan Pro Wrestling, he has distinguished himself as a remarkable wrestler, as well as having an excellent promo and a being a fantastic character actor.

His accomplished have earned him multiple championships, as well as the number one spot on this year’s PWI 500.

But in 2005, Omega was sent to Deep South Wrestling, a developmental territory for WWE, to be evaluated by Bill DeMott. After impressing DeMott, John Laurinaitis and Kento Kobashi, in try out matches, the Canadian was offered a WWE developmental contract, and assigned to DSW full time.

In interviews since however, Omega has criticised his time in DSW and has been particularly critical of promoters DeMott and Jody Hamilton, as well as trainer Hardcore Holly.

The poor management of the brand led to Omega immediately requesting his release, and the future IWGP Heavyweight Champion returned to Premier Championship Wrestling in 2006.

Since then, Omega has claimed that the WWE have attempted to re-sign him several times but has turned every offer down.
