Meaning Behind Kenny Omega’s Cryptic Message on AEW Dynamite Revealed

Kenny Omega’s ominous promo on AEW Dynamite wasn’t just a throwaway line—it was a direct tease for a major shift. The former AEW World Champion’s cryptic message about “taking care of something” was a subtle setup for his return to the main event spotlight.

During this week’s episode of AEW Dynamite, The Young Bucks revealed they were not medically cleared to compete for the remainder of 2025, putting their trio activity on hold. Kenny Omega responded with a layered statement that hinted at unfinished business:

“Whether we tag or not, The Elite are The Elite. I’m always gonna be with these guys, they always got my back and I’m always gonna have theirs. But maybe this gives me the chance to take care of something that I need to take care of myself. So while you guys [are] resting up, I’m gonna do something that I think I should have done a little while ago.”

Now, Fightful Select is revealing what that “something” actually is. According to their sources:

“There was a segment on AEW this week where Kenny Omega mentioned that he had to take care of some things. We’re told this specifically was to reference him possibly being in the world title scene soon.”

That would mark a major return to form for Omega, who hasn’t been in the AEW World Title mix in quite some time. With Worlds End taking place this Saturday and Omega not currently booked for a match, speculation is mounting that fans might see the beginning of this next chapter unfold at the PPV.

If Omega is indeed eyeing the AEW World Championship again, that could put him on a collision course with Samoa Joe, MJF, or anyone else at the top of the card.
