Since turning heel, Omega has been in excellent form. The AEW World Champion has put on some incredible matches with the title, against the likes of Rey Fenix, Lance Archer, and Joey Janela. Prior to winning the title, Omega didn’t exactly have a poor year either.

Omega began 2020 by winning the AEW Tag Team Championships alongside Adam Page. He and Hangman held the titles for six months before losing it to FTR at All Out.

During the incredible reign, Omega and Page defended the title in a brilliant match against the Young Bucks at Revolution.

Omega, Page, and the Bucks shared the WON award for Best Match of 2020. Dave Meltzer gave the match six stars, breaking his five-star scale.

Omega and Page split after they lost the titles and met at Full Gear in the finals of the AEW Championship tournament. Kenny beat Pentagon Jr in a television classic, Sonny Kiss in a devastating squash, and Page in the finals.

Omega capped off the year with the AEW World Championship, beating his blood rival Jon Moxley. With Don Callis by his side, Omega absconded to IMPACT Wrestling and reunited with the Good Brothers. He brought Gallows and Anderson to AEW and reunited the Bullet Club from 2016.

Kenny taunted fans on Twitter after his win. He said, “Don’t be mad at me. Be mad that your favorites weren’t even remotely close to being good enough.”
