Kenny Omega Updates Health Before AEW Forbidden Door 2026

Kenny Omega has given a major update on his health heading into AEW Forbidden Door 2026. He claims his recent condition is the best he's been in for some time now.

What happened?

Kenny Omega went on a hiatus of roughly a year due to dealing with diverticulitis. Despite being back and competing in matches since his return, he has not been back to full speed.

Why it matters for Kenny Omega

The Best Bout Machine has been seemingly playing it by ear and booking him in a handful of ways only. But things have taken a positive turn as he feels confident and committed to having singles matches.

Kenny Omega revealed that he is still far from being at 100% and will even have bad days at times. He talked about how he was fortunately in a good enough condition to have these singles matches.

What comes next?

Kenny Omega has already hinted at his next major goal after dealing with his current problem in ZSJ. He has made a bold claim of going after MJF again sometime in the future.

Zack Sabre Jr. has addressed this already and has refused to simply be a stepping stone for Kenny Omega's world title dreams. He looks determined to take him down and prove a point.

Kenny Omega continued by saying how he was glad that everything progressed well, and this made it possible for him to take on Zack Sabre Jr. at Forbidden Door. He stated, “So, I’m very glad that things have gone into the direction that they have and that I feel the way that I do right before Forbidden Door because otherwise I don’t know how else there would be a chance to wrestle against Zack Sabre Jr. So, that’s very fortunate for me.”

The match between Kenny Omega and Zack Sabre Jr. is set to take place at AEW Forbidden Door 2026. Kenny Omega is looking to continue his world title campaign, and this match is a crucial step in that direction.

Kenny Omega has been open about his health issues and has been working hard to get back to full speed. His upcoming match against Zack Sabre Jr. will be a test of his current condition and his ability to compete at a high level.
