Kenny Omega has taken to social media to make a huge announcement for the near future. This comes following his brief absence from AEW, as he has revealed another event outside the ring he'll be taking part in.

The Best Bout Machine hasn't been seen since earlier this month after he was taken out by Kyle Fletcher. He is said to be taking some time off to recuperate and do some routine health checks. He's far from being fully healthy but has been in good enough condition to be able to compete in the ring from time to time.

Kenny Omega took to X/Twitter to announce that he will be a special guest host at the Capcom Cup 12, which will take place in March 2026. He shared how fans can get tickets this year and also have a chance to win an opportunity to have backstage access to the event, where they can meet him and the stars of Street Fighter.

Kenny Omega is set to make his AEW return this week on Dynamite

This week, AEW Dynamite is set to hold its 6th Anniversary show, and several blockbuster matches have already been announced for the card.

One of these will see Kenny Omega making his long-awaited return to the company as he'll team up with Brodido to take on Josh Alexander and The Young Bucks. The former AEW World Champion is looking to pick up where he left off and go after the Don Callis Family once more.

It remains to be seen whether this will eventually lead him to go after either Kazuchika Okada or Kyle Fletcher, two members of the faction he has a bone to pick with. He has unfinished business with them and might be seeking retribution.
