Speaking on Keepin’ It 100 Official, Disco Inferno addressed Kenny Omega’s potential future in WWE. The wrestling veteran focused on Omega’s match structure and television experience.
If Kenny Omega went to WWE, I would probably not doubt that they would send him to NXT first because this guy’s gimmick is ‘I need 25-30 minutes for matches because I have these epic pay-per-view’ but when the guy had the chance….remember when he did the squash match on TV and he gave the jobber like 90 percent of the match. We’re going, ‘What on earth are you doing?’ and that was a big point of controversy
Disco Inferno elaborated on his perspective regarding Omega’s television experience and the need for additional training.
Bro, the guy still hasn’t learned to do American television yet because he isn’t getting over like he was supposed to be the best wrestler in the world. It’s like you got to go in that system and do some weekly TV and NXT where they’re doing the vignettes with you and you gotta learn to act, you gotta learn to sell to the cameras and the facials. Bro, he’s not learning any of that in AEW
Prior to AEW, Omega built his reputation in New Japan Pro Wrestling, where he primarily performed in major events and pay-per-views, delivering lengthy matches that earned him the moniker “The Best Bout Machine.”
