Kenny Omega's Status After Swerve Strickland's Assault On Dynamite
An update has emerged on former AEW World Champion Kenny Omega after he was brutally attacked by Swerve Strickland on this week's AEW Dynamite.
The duo headlined Dynamite in Sacramento, California and it marked their first-ever singles match. The 20-minute match saw some spectacular moments with both of them going all out for the win.
'The Cleaner' hit multiple V-Triggers in the final moments of the bout, but Strickland pinned him after hitting a House Call. However, things turned ugly as Strickland landed punches after the bell rang.
He further got a chain from Prince Nana and hung Omega over the ropes. Strickland then hit Omega with a Deadeye through the announce table.
Fightful Select has reported that Omega is not currently scheduled to wrestle at AEW Revolution due to some scheduling conflicts.
"Kenny Omega vs. Swerve Strickland is in the books, and Kenny Omega has some scheduling conflicts for the future."
It has been reported that Omega informed AEW about the conflict months ago, which is why the match with Strickland was scheduled on February 18th Dynamite instead of taking place at the pay-per-view.
"Omega took on Swerve Strickland on AEW Dynamite, but will not be wrestling at the upcoming Revolution PPV for AEW. We’re told that he informed AEW of the scheduling conflict a number of months ago, which is why the match ended up on the February 18 Dynamite.”
Reports further suggest that Omega isn’t currently planned to compete at Revolution but he could be involved with the show in some capacity.
"We’re told that Kenny Omega is possible for an appearance at AEW Revolution, but as of today he isn’t planned to wrestle."
AEW Revolution is scheduled to take place on March 15th from the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, California.
