Kenny Omega returns to AEW Television.

The former AEW World Champion is coming off a high thanks to his incredible match against Gabe Kidd at Wrestle Dynasty. Omega has been out for over a year and yet, it felt as if the 41-year-old hadn’t missed a beat during the special New Japan/AEW event. 

Omega made his surprise return at World’s End and made it clear that he wants Kazuchika Okada next. The Continental Champion was one of the men who assaulted the former AEW World Champion last year and “The Cleaner” is surely looking for revenge. What will Kenny Omega say in his first promo back? And will Okada have anything to say about Omega’s big return?

Who will challenge Jon Moxley for the AEW World Title? 

While Jon Moxley is coming off a loss to the man formerly known as Adam Copeland and FTR, he has to focus ahead on his next challenger for the Maximum Carnage special. Jeff Jarrett was already confirmed as an entrant and the former TNA and NWA World Heavyweight Champion has made it his mission to become an AEW World Champion. 

However, the veteran will have to go through eleven other entrants in order to get his shot at the championship gold. Can Jeff Jarrett get one step closer to championship gold by outlasting eleven other men in the Casino Gauntlet match?

Also, Buddy Matthews is in the mood for revenge. The former Trios Champion wasn’t happy with Will Ospreay eliminating his House of Black buddy Brody King from the Continental Tournament and looks to avenge his loss tonight. 

Will Ospreay is fresh off a huge loss against Kazuchika Okada in the finals of the Continental Classic. Will the former International Champion be able to rebound and get a victory over one of the top names in AEW?

Check out the advertised line-up for the latest episode of AEW Dynamite:

  • Casino Gauntlet match for an AEW World Championship match (Entrants: Jeff Jarrett, Jay White, more TBA)
  • Kenny Omega returns
  • Bobby Lashley vs. Mark Briscoe
  • Will Ospreay vs. Buddy Murphy
  • Toni Storm vs. Kris Statlander vs. Willow Nightingale for the #1 Spot in the Women’s Casino Gauntlet

I thought Kenny Omega would take it easy at Wrestle Dynasty against Gabe Kidd but he went full steam ahead.

Best match of the weekend.
