Kenny Omega Talks Limits With The ‘Forbidden Door’

Kenny Omega is a busy busy man. The reigning and defending AEW World Champion, unified IMPACT/TNA World Champion, and AAA Mega Champion has taken full advantage of the opening of the proverbial ‘forbidden door’ and has gone on a belt collecting spree.

It has not come without it’s limits though, as Omega told the PWI podcast:

“I think there will always be limits,” Omega said. “There will always be lines that you cannot cross. But I believe that there is a world, right place, right time, when you can see every company working together. And I don’t necessarily mean every company. I just mean if another wanted to work with another company, I think they’d be open to the idea. And I think again, this is a terrible thing to say, one of the reasons the Forbidden Door, quote unquote, was opened with New Japan, it was partly due to what we’re all struggling with right now, which is a pandemic.

“For us to take a step back and stop worrying about our own stuff and see what kind of world we’re all living in. It’s the same world. And how we need to set aside petty differences, how we need to set aside just age old tropes of ‘this is my company and my territory and stay the heck out. There’s no way we can ever play nice and cross paths.’

“I think it was great that now people are realising we’re all struggling in the same way. We’re all facing the same hardships. This is the same planet and a lot of us are sharing the same fans. So why not make the world a bit of a better place as best as we can for what we do, which is something very minor in the grand scheme of things, which is just professional wrestling? We’re not as important as a lot of us think we are. But if we can contribute in some kind of positive way with what we do and what we’re good at, we need to take the motion to do that. That’s always been my approach.”
