Kenny Omega says he will be undergoing surgery very soon

[Chris]

Omega announced during a Friday night Twitch stream that he’ll be having surgery done soon with a doctor who is at the top of his field.


“I have a wonderful doctor that I was able to find. And he is someone who is the top — the top of his field,” Omega said. “And he is very hard to get appointments with and he’s very hard to get surgeries with. However, he has done me a solid and I will actually be getting surgery very, very, very soon.”


Omega said the surgery is coming up in a couple of days. Though there are always nerves going into a major operation, Omega said this doctor is someone who he feels confident in.


“I’m feeling good about it,” Omega said. “And I’m optimistic.”


There was a point in his recovery from diverticulitis where Omega was heavily considering that he may not be able to wrestle again. With the way this doctor is doing the procedure, Omega is hopeful that, when he returns, he’ll be feeling better than he has in a long time. Omega said he believes his issues with diverticulitis started in the early days of AEW.

He's rich.......shoulda had this surgery along time ago.

He is really Canadian, it only comes to surgery when it's life and death........ignore until it feels normal.

I don't blame him if I was going to have Surgery I would want someone I trusted in as well. Hopefulyl everything goes well for Omega and he's able feel better way before the thought of him returning to the Ring.

Regarding Kenny Omega, we haven’t heard anything new past he’s doing better and while we don’t have any kind of a date for him returning, the feeling right now is that he will be returning and his career isn’t over. He hasn’t been cleared to start any training yet

That's great news. It stinks that he won't be healed in time to potentially have the deciding match against Danielson while he's still full-time (since their only contest was a 30 minute draw) but I'm happy to hear his career isn't over and it will just be a matter of taking his time to be ready.
