Kenny Omega has been wrestling for well over two decades and his body has been put through a lot of wear and tear over the years. That’s why Omega has now admitted that there’s not much left in his in-ring career.
While speaking on Wrestling Observer Radio, Kenny Omega stated that now that he’s getting older and his performances will be fewer, he says he truly values each match. He hopes every one of them matters, because the ones that don’t feel meaningful chip away at what little he has left. He wants to make sure whatever is left, which isn’t much, is still something worthwhile.
“Now that I’m getting up there and my performances will be a little more limited in amount, I really do value each and every singular performance. I really hope that every single one of them means something, because the ones that don’t mean anything—it’s like chipping away at what’s left, and there isn’t much left. So I want to make sure that what is left, the meat that’s still on the bone, that it’s good tasting meat, you know? Hopefully.”
The Best Bout Machine had to deal with a ton of injuries throughout his career, including diverticulitis, a hernia operation and many more. Therefore, there is only so much Omega can do before he hangs up his pro wrestling boots for good.
Kenny Omega’s passion for wrestling is clear and even now he just wants to put on the best matches possible for his fans before it’s time to call it quits. Therefore, we’ll have to wait and see when Omega will decide to retire from in-ring action.
