While Kenny Omega doesn't plan to retire anytime soon, The Best Bout Machine noted on Wrestling Observer Radio that he does think about what he would like to do post-retirement as he may suffer a bad injury or an alien life-form could arrive on earth.

When his in-ring career does come to an end, Omega noted he would be happy working as a backstage agent, helping to layout matches.

"I get a lot out of being an agent; I really enjoy that. I don't think I could ever have a dojo or a school. A big part is I'm just too lazy to organise something like that. For me to be in a position where I could teach or give advice or layout matches, I find it very personally fulfilling. If there were ever an opportunity like that in wrestling once I am done actively, I feel like I would be happy in the workplace, being able to do that," Omega said.

The former AEW World Champion has worked as a backstage agent in the promotion before as he is heavily involved with the AEW women's division.

Omega is currently on the shelf due to multiple injuries. The 38-year-old noted he was hoping to return in February but he is still awaiting hernia surgery.
