Kenny Omega Appearing For NJPW At 11/4 Power Struggle Event
Due to a difficult bout with diverticulitis, Kenny Omega has been out of action for the entirety of 2024 with only a handful of AEW appearances to his name. While questions remain about Omega’s in-ring future, the Cleaner will make a return to New Japan Pro Wrestling next month as part of the company’s Power Struggle event.
The event will mark Omega’s first time appearing for New Japan in close to two years. His most recent match for the promotion came in January 2023 when he and Kazuchika Okada defeated Aaron Henare and Jeff Cobb at the New Year’s Dash event.
NJPW Power Struggle 2024 will take place on November 4, from the Osaka Prefectural Gymnasium in Osaka, Japan. The card is as follows:
- Zack Sabre Jr. (c) vs. Shingo Takagi (IWGP World Heavyweight Championship)
- David Finlay (c) vs. Taichi (IWGP Global Heavyweight Championship)
- Douki (c) vs. Master Wato (IWGP Junior Heavyweight Championship)
- TMDK (Mikey Nicholls and Shane Haste) (c) vs. United Empire (Great-O-Khan and Henare) (IWGP Tag Team Championship)
- 2024 Super Junior Tag League finals
- Hiroshi Tanahashi and Boltin Oleg vs. House of Torture (Evil and Ren Narita)
- Sanada vs. Shota Umino
Omega’s appearance adds a layer of unpredictability to the show and fans are eager to see what he has to say and do.
