Kenny Omega Plans Time Off AEW TV Amid Medical Treatment

Kenny Omega has clarified that his absence from AEW All Out is due to planned specialized medical treatments and a scheduled trip to Japan, not an impromptu break or injury. AEW scripted an injury angle on the September 3rd Dynamite episode to write him off TV, with Omega being stretchered out after a staged attack, confirming his upcoming time off had been planned for months. Despite wrestling through pain for some time, Omega emphasized his commitment to AEW and expressed frustration with misleading media headlines about his situation. Currently serving as an AEW Executive Vice President, Omega has previously spoken about the mental toll of balancing his dual roles within the company. His absence marks the first public acknowledgment of his health-related time away from in-ring performance, though he remains focused on representing AEW positively during his recovery. All Out 2025, held in Toronto, will proceed without Omega as expected.
