Kenny Omega Issues Match Challenge to Gabe Kidd for NJPW x AEW Wrestle Dynasty, Kidd Accepts

New Japan Pro Wrestling held a recent interview with Kenny Omega. One of the topics discussed included Omega’s upcoming in-ring return at Wrestle Dynasty on January 5, 2025 at the Tokyo Dome in Tokyo, Japan and issued a challenge to Gabe Kidd for a match at the show over their recent backstage incident and bad blood issues.

“Well, I’d like to address recent circumstances, and things that have happened with Gabe Kidd. I’ve had time to reflect after Power Struggle, and I feel I would regret not being able to make things right. I would hate for this situation to cause a rift between AEW and New Japan Pro-Wrestling. So after conversations I’ve had with President Tanahashi and other executives in NJPW, I’ve decided that if New Japan requests it, if Gabe requests it, and if the fans want it, then I will wrestle Gabe Kidd, as a professional at Wrestle Dynasty January 5.”

Following the release of the interview, Kidd responded on Twitter accepting Omega’s challenge.

“I find it pretty f****** hilarious that this guy accepts a match with me rather than reaching out, and calls me unprofessional in an interview. That’s fine with me, Kenny. That’s fine with me bro. But you’re gonna wish that diverticulitis killed you, because step in the ring with me, you’re done out here. So f*** you. See you in Tokyo Dome, b****.”
