He signed a deal for four years in January 2019 with no extension option. So he’d likely be pondering his next move right now, possibly even talking to other companies, questioning if he wants to do this any more, etc.
I’ve always thought it likely the dude would leave when his deal is up. He’s not a versatile enough guy to change up his style. He’s also a pretty bitter dude when it comes to wrestling. It wouldn’t have shocked me at all to see him take $8 million, fuck around for four years, then retire and play video games and drag logs in Canada and make documentaries about how great he is. It’s only been recently, with the arrival of threats like CM Punk and Bryan Danielson, and New Japan getting into bed with AEW that I’ve really considered the possibility Omega could take a spot in WWE. The AEW video game turning into a complete disaster under his watch only compounds matters.
At this rate, I’d be pretty surprised if Omega re-signs with AEW. I think his injury stuff is largely bullshit. A bit of a Shawn Michaels trick.
