Kenny Omega says his wrestling journey is not over, despite admitting that his clash with Will Ospreay at AEW All In 2026 may have been the toughest match of his career.
Speaking with Hikaru Shida on her ShidaTube channel, Omega reflected on challenging Ospreay for the AEW World Championship at Wembley Stadium. While the result did not go his way, he made it clear that he left London proud of what they achieved.
Omega also spoke openly about the physical demands of competing as he gets older.
“It may have been the hardest match of my career. Of course, I’m getting older. So my strength is gradually going away. I’m getting weaker.”
The former AEW World Champion has faced significant health challenges during his battle with diverticulitis. Tony Khan previously admitted there was a time when he feared Omega might never wrestle again.
For Omega, however, the Wembley match was an occasion to remember, even with the disappointment of defeat.
“I lost in front of about 50,000 people, but I really gave everything I had. I gave it everything and did my absolute best. I’m still very proud of the performance. Yes, you see the damage, but my heart is already… It’s already healed.
“I couldn’t be more proud of my performance at Wembley. I couldn’t be more proud of our champion, Will Ospreay.”
Although his comments acknowledged the toll wrestling takes on his body, Omega ended with an encouraging message for supporters. He did not announce a retirement date or confirm his next match, but said there is more to come.
“I hope that everyone has a great memory of what will be a great memory for me. Wembley Stadium, oh my God. But it’s not the end. Please support me next time, too!”
