New Japan Pro-Wrestling officially announced that Kenny
Omega will be wrestling at the Wrestle Dynasty show on
January 5 at the Tokyo Dome.

The former AEW and IWGP Heavyweight champion will be taking
on Gabe Kidd on the show after Omega issued a challenge and
Kidd accepted.

This will be Omega’s first match since December 2023 as this
year he had to battle a severe case of diverticulitis which
sent him to the sidelines, ultimately requiring surgery to
repair the problem.

Omega has not appeared on AEW television since May where he
was taken out by The Elite.

Wrestle Dynasty is an NJPW-produced show which will also
feature AEW, ROH, CMLL, and Stardom. It’s the Japanese
version of AEW’s Forbidden Door.
