Kenny Omega Shoots Down Notion Of Doing Bit In BTE Episode

Kenny Omega says that he’s done with doing bits for Being the Elite — even if his actions don’t match his words. The latest episode of BTE covered the Kenny Omega reuniting with the Bucks to save them from the Don Callis Family on last week’s Dynamite.

In the video, the Bucks and Omega met up backstage and the Bucks suggested that it felt like old times. They asked if he wanted to do a bit and shot down the notion — but then at the end of the video, he did his water bottle gag. You can see highlights below:

On Being Asked To Do the Bit:

“Oh, I mean it — It sounds like a fun idea. It really does. It’s just that you know… the old times [are] five, six years ago. We’ve been doing this for how long? It feels like decades, let’s be honest. And I mean, we can talk about your cell phone wides and your rusty trombones, your alligator f**khouses. We can do that stuff till the cows come home.

“But I just feel like as a person, as a human, I just feel like I’ve grown up. I’m not into the low-hanging fruit. And just — yeah, I feel like I’ve grown as a person, as a human, as a cis white male. So I’d rather not do all that silly stuff. I’m done talking about all this tongue-in-cheek humor and ridiculous stuff. I don’t want to do any of that old weird stuff that I was doing just to get a reaction. I mean, I’m just a normal guy. And I think people got the wrong idea that here I am, showing up and acting like this geek and this nerd on this weekly show. I’d like to be taken seriously. I don’t know about you guys?”

On If the Bucks Can Keep Crashing At His Place:

“I mean, hell — you can crash here as long as you want. Put a roof over your head, I’ll put food in your mouth. I’ll put water in your bellies. So, don’t let me stop you.”
