Kenny Omega on His Evolution in NJPW
As noted, Kenny Omega recently spoke with Sports Illustrated ahead of his rematch against Okada at Dominion on June 9th. Below is what Omega had to say about his evolution in NJPW:
“I think this is why I’m especially proud of my year in 2016. It was an incredible journey that I never could have prepared for, and forced me to grow and evolve on the fly. In a sense, all of my supporters and NJPW’s supporters took the journey with me, which made it feel extra special. Having the online series Being the Elite with the Bucks, also helped a lot to tell the human story that’s sometimes missing from pro wrestling.”
