Kenny Omega might be the one to negotiate with other companies, and that includes NJPW and perhaps change their mind about working with AEW. As he is the AEW Co-Executive Vice President, he can say things on behalf of the company.
Kenny talked about his goals on Wrestling Observer Radio, where talked about being open to working with other promotions, which includes WWE. The biggest problem is that WWE has no intention of working with AEW.
“We have an open door to everyone. When I say everyone I mean everyone. I wouldn’t want to put the cart before the horse, but even myself I’m completely open to working with a place like WWE.”
“Like there is no evil entity. There is no war. What we are is a celebration of professional wrestling and that means, hey guess what? The CMLL guys that the AAA guys hate or the AAA guys that New Japan hates, well some of their guys are better than your guys that’s just the way it is. We’re gonna use the best that is available to us and we’re gonna have a very peaceful celebratory ring where everyone can show their craft, show their art.”
“I think we’re gonna have a number of dream matches, or just, I don’t even know if you would call them dream matches but you call them matches you never thought you would see in a wrestling ring. I think it’s gonna create a more interesting landscape in professional wrestling for 2019 and beyond and I’m really excited about that because again there are all these different guys from all these different places that I never had a chance to work with and now suddenly, the door’s been blown wide open.”
Even though AEW might want to be in a working relationship with WWE, WWE might not feel the same and accept their offer. If a match does not take place in WWE or somewhere like EVOLVE, then it is most likely not happening.
