WWE ThunderDome was a huge success upon its launch. In fact, even before the first match, the official site crashed since everyone rushed to the website to purchase tickets. It seems as though one individual who was a part of the virtual audience is none other than Kenny Omega.

Apparently, someone spotted Omega enjoying WWE SmackDown as a virtual fan from the comfort of his home.

However, neither Kenny Omega nor WWE has confirmed this news directly.
It’s quite easy to mistake someone else for Kenny Omega among all the other faces around the ThunderDome via webcams. Nonetheless, this did not stop fans from making some wild speculations.
On the other hand, a major chunk of the audience was absolutely positive that the man in the image was not Kenny Omega.
Now, even though most were absolutely sure that was not him, Omega himself emerged on Twitter to make an announcement. He does not directly reply to the tweet, but sends one out himself indicating that he was just trying to have a good time.
I was just trying to have a good time, I honestly didn’t think anyone would notice.

Of course, this can be him having fun with his fans and trying to troll them. On the contrary, what he is saying can be the truth as well. Until and unless there is proper confirmation, there is not much to go on other than assuming one of the two options.
The final option for this is that a fan was holding up an image of Omega or his doppelganger. If this is the case, then whoever it is will need to be aware of WWE’s policy of banning people from seats.

This does seem like a good time to note that WWE ThunderDome screens are not exactly HD quality. So this can simply be a case of mistaken identity with none of the above options being applicable.
