Kenny Omega is a busy man lately, working double duty for both AEW and Impact Wrestling. After a successful appearance on last week's Impact which brought with it some of the highest ratings the show has seen in years, he has been signed to appear once again this week on Impact. Omega will follow that up with a match Wednesday night on AEW Dynamite, as was revealed on Friday.

Omega will be in action against Joey Janela on Dynamite. The match was signed after a video of Omega was posted where he addressed some flack he received for not having to face Janela in the first round of the AEW Championship Eliminator Tournament.

Omega and Janela were scheduled to face-off, but Janela was pulled at the last minute due to COVID-19 concerns. Instead, Omega worked against Sonny Kiss and was victorious in under 30 seconds.

Omega and Janela will face each other on Wednesday night in a No DQ / Anything Goes match. Omega stated that if Janela is able to defeat him, he will grant Janela an AEW Championship shot down the line.

Check out Omega laying out the challenge below.

The updated card for this week's AEW Dynamite is as follows:

  • Cody Rhodes with Arn Anderson vs. Angelico with Jack Evans
  • Hangman Page, John Silver, and Alex Reynolds vs. Matt Hardy and Private Party
  • The Acclaimed vs. SCU
  • NWA Women's World Champion Serena Deeb and Big Swole vs. Ivelisse and Diamante
  • Inner Circle (Chris Jericho, MJF, Sammy Guevara, Santana, Ortiz, Jake Hager, and Wardlow) vs. Top Flight, Brandon Cutler, Varsity Blondes, and Best Friends
  • AEW World Champion Kenny Omega vs. Joey Janela (No DQ / Anything Goes Match, If Janela Is Victorious He Received An AEW Title Shot)
