Kenny Omega commented on his appearance and promo at NJPW Power Struggle after the segment. As reported, Omega appeared at Monday’s NJPW show and said he would like to come back at Wrestle Dynasty against a younger talent before he ended up brawling backstage with Gabe Kidd. NJPW caught Omega backstage after the show and he spoke about the segment and potentially making a comeback to NJPW.

“Yeah. So I went out there not knowing what I was gonna say,” Omega said (per Fightful). “Said what I said and I meant what I said. It’s been tough dealing with all of this, the injury, the sickness. But, I feel about ready to come back. For the fans here in Japan, for the fans worldwide, I want to make it something special. I want to come back to the place that made me me, the reason why a lot of people even know who I am is because of [NJPW]. If I do come back, I’d love to come back for New Japan.”

He continued, “I’m not who I used to be. I’m not sure what kind of person will be making a comeback but I’m going to give him my best shot. If guys like Tanahashi can go as long as he can go, I need to have that same spirit and fight and fight and fight and fight until I can’t fight anymore. Being here fuels me, being here makes me feel like a different person, makes me feel like I can be the best version of me that I can be. If you guys are willing to have me, I’d love to come back to New Japan. Until next time, whenever that may be, I bid you all ado, muah, goodnight, bang.”

An Omega appearance at Wrestle Dynasty has not been officially confirmed. The show takes place on January 5th, 2025 and will feature talent from NJPW, AEW, ROH, STARDOM, and CMLL.
