From his early beginnings down in Deep South Wrestling to his biggest achievement of winning the IWGP Heavyweight championship in a much-loved match against Kazuchika Okada at Dominion, Kenny Omega is one of the hottest wrestling stars on the planet.
The Winnipeg native’s documentary called "Omega Man: A Wrestling Love Story" will finally air on March 27 at 7:30 pm. It will be part of a series called 'Engraved on a Nation'.
