Kenny Omega has officially returned at AEW World’s End 2024, marking a momentous comeback after an extended hiatus due to health challenges. Wrestling fans worldwide have eagerly anticipated this event, and Omega delivered in spectacular fashion.
After a prolonged battle with diverticulitis that sidelined him for most of 2024, Omega made his surprise return tonight at AEW World’s End. The crowd erupted as his iconic music played, signaling the dramatic conclusion to the Continental Classic tournament final between Kazuchika Okada and Will Ospreay.
During Christopher Daniels’ announcement that he could no longer hand over Okada’s title due to stepping down as an AEW EVP, Omega’s music interrupted, igniting the crowd. The former AEW World Champion emerged dressed in an impeccably tailored suit and locked eyes with Okada, creating an electrifying moment in the arena.
This confrontation sets the stage for a potential revival of the Omega-Okada rivalry in AEW heading into 2025, a storyline fans have been longing to see unfold.
The Impact of Omega’s Comeback
Kenny Omega’s return is not just a pivotal moment for him personally but also a major boost for AEW as a whole. His presence at World’s End reinvigorates the promotion, which has keenly felt his absence throughout 2024.

With his dramatic return at AEW World’s End, Omega is set to reclaim his position at the pinnacle of All Elite Wrestling. Fans can expect him to play a central role in upcoming narratives, including his highly anticipated match against Gabe Kidd at Wrestle Dynasty in January.
