Ospreay's eyes never left Kenny's. We all know we could be getting some of the best wrestling of the year from all promotions. Okada v Ospreay v Omega., now and they're getting huge reactions. I never thought I'd see all three wrestlers in one company.

We're about to witness history ( Hopefully).

It's just weird to have Don and Kenny immediately gear towards each other. It makes sense with their history, of course, but you'd think Kenny's first story woulda been with The Elite. ... but of course, I guess that Storyline also got screwed in a way.

Either way it is great to see Omega back. As long as the Injury bug doesn't hit, this could become a hell of a year for AEW.

If Ibou is correct (and they don't change plans due to how some feel about the death riders), that is not happening till Y'all In so makes sense not to start that just yet

Yea, that makes sense, of course.

It's just been an overall weird year when it comes to some of these storylines. At least imo.

Ibou is untrustworthy imo but with Okada Omega clearly penciled in of All In, and that would be the culmination of that story, it makes sense to street from the beginning with all that runway.

Omega also lost to Takeshita, so if he wants to take everything back he lost, avenging losses makes more sense to me than going after the guys who kicked him when he was already down. he can get to those guys later

I'd argue the Callis stuff is what is more important first as they are the ones who first took him out and they were the ones he was feuding with before he left. Th elite stuff was more the elite rubbing salt in the wound and being assholes (and re-writing him off ofc)

So personally, I like going vs Don first .
