Will Ospreay and Kenny Omega to Team Up at AEW Grand Slam Australia – Kenny Omega and Will Ospreay will team up for the first time at AEW Grand Slam Australia. The announcement comes after weeks of escalating tension and unexpected alliances.
Omega recently returned to AEW after being sidelined for over a year due to diverticulitis. He made his comeback at AEW Worlds End and followed up with an impactful return on the January 8th episode of Dynamite. During his return, Omega faced a confrontation from the Don Callis Family, but Will Ospreay surprisingly intervened to help him.
Omega’s momentum continued when he defeated Brian Cage at Dynamite: Maximum Carnage, but the Don Callis Family again targeted him. Ospreay once more came to his aid, sparking speculation about the growing partnership between the two rivals.
Despite their shared animosity toward the Don Callis Family, Omega and Ospreay’s alliance hasn’t been without tension. On the January 22nd episode of Dynamite, the two had a heated exchange, with Omega referencing their storied past and emphasizing his distrust of Ospreay. However, the conversation was cut short when the Don Callis Family interrupted, leading to a chaotic brawl. Omega and Ospreay eventually worked together to fend off their adversaries, even delivering high-risk dives from a balcony and a lighting rig.
After gaining the upper hand, Omega issued a challenge for AEW Grand Slam Australia. He and Ospreay will face Kyle Fletcher and Konosuke Takeshita, members of the Don Callis Family, in what promises to be an explosive tag team match.
