As a long-time fan of New Japan, it's really rare you see a talent of the caliber of Kenny Omega rise to his stratosphere as a Gaijin. So, no memes, none of that, do you think he'll take all that ability to the big dance, WWE?
Because, lets be honest, though I am a huge fan of his ring-work, from a professional perspective – and that's what they are, first and foremost: businessmen, professionals – there's only one place he can make the real money and solidify a legacy. That's WWE.
Do you think he has the balls to jump ship, or will he always be content to play the little-leagues, as big fish, little pond?
AJ Styles did it, and went from an indie guy, to an all-time great. I'd say Kenny may even be better than him. And with them content on pushing goofs like Seth, Roman and Finn, who Omega kills in talent, he's in a prime position right now.
tl;dr, is Kenny content staying OmE-ga, or will he try and become OmegA+?

>. So, no memes, none of that, do you think he'll take all that ability to the big dance, WWE?

I hope not. WWE's reputation for mishandling great talent from other promotions is legendary.

> there's only one place he can make the real money and solidify a legacy. That's WWE.

I'd be curious to know how much he makes now. As far as legacy is concerned, saying that he doesn't have one because he's not in WWE is short-sighted and ethnocentric. Everyone in his business knows how good he is now. The Japanese fanbase, while smaller than the US recognizes him as well. Your average American mark may not know about him, but how much does that and MAYBE a spot in WWE's Hall of Fame mean?

>Do you think he has the balls to jump ship, or will he always be content to play the little-leagues, as big fish, little pond?

I personally wouldn't because, like I said, the chances of WWE mishandling him and wasting time jobbing him out to Roman Reigns or something is significant. Not worth the risk in my opinion.

>>2130165
No. He's happy toiling in the minors.
>>
It's difficult to tell, but I genuinely get the sense that he'll stay in Japan. He seems to have a deep hatred for WWE. It's visible even in streams he's been a part of -- once WWE comes into the subject (usually with the old "Will you ever go to the WWE?" question attached) he says no instantly and looks visibly bothered, or at the very least pensive.

I think he's better off in Japan. Whatever market the WWE doesn't have their hands on, really. They'd ruin him -- they'd take away from what he loves doing most and they'd impose limits upon him that he'd be stuck trying to break more than anything else. The art would suffer, and he's one of those guys that cares more about the pure essence of pro wrestling than making money, or so it seems.

Trying to decide who I should bet on to appear in the Royal Rumble. May try my luck and bet £10 on Shinsuke just because of the odds being good, but the fact that WWE have hinted at it.
Opinions?

Being 100% serious here, does anyone else think bringing in new indie favorite Kenny Omega for the Royal Rumble to have him survive until the end and eliminated last to clinch a decisive Roman Reigns victory is EXACTLY the kind of last touch that Roman needs to get him over with the fans?

Holy fuck this was boring.

When will these indie manlets learn that Flippy Shit only matters if your a charismatic wrestler whom people want to rally behind and actually care about.

Otherwise, its just trained stunts done by professionals.

these indie manlets are the death of wrestling, literally so many of them, who gives a fuck.

>Hulkster

>dubya dubya eff.

period.

the only real draws. The minute you turn it into a cesspool infested with Nameless indie manlets who all look and sound the same, you dont have good wrestling, you have a Circus. God i hope haitch realizes his mistake with the cancer NXT before he's out of it for good and does something about this.
