Kenny Omega is inching closer to a return to the ring and shared at NJPW Power Struggle 2024 that he hopes to wrestle in a matter of months. Appearing at the Osaka event, Omega said that he\'d spoken with NJPW President Hiroshi Tanahashi and they\'d shared their ideas. One idea was for Omega to wrestle again for New Japan against one of the company\'s young talents.
Omega said he\'s been making progress in his recovery and \"in a little bit\" he should be able to return to action. Despite being a member of the AEW roster, and an EVP, He added that if he returns to wrestling, he would like to be back in Japan.
The Canadian wasn\'t sure when he\'d be able to be back, but said \"How about January 5th?\", the date of Wrestle Dynasty. Omega ended by calling New Japan the King of Sport, the best pro wrestling in the world, and his home.

Omega has been out of action since December 2023 due to diverticulitis, a condition that has affected other wrestling names including Brock Lesnar and Shane McMahon. Omega\'s desire to return in time for Wrestle Dynasty fits in with last month\'s comments by Kota Ibushi, who predicted Omega would be wrestling again within a matter of months. Omega underwent surgery earlier this year after appearing on AEW TV where he was betrayed by The Elite.
Fans are excited at the prospect of Omega wrestling again, though the AEW staple\'s comments about NJPW being the best are bound to raise some eyebrows. Stay tuned to SEScoops for the latest on Kenny Omega and his journey back to the ring.
