Jericho and Omega brawled just minutes after AEW unveiled that they were now Omega’s new home. there was some speculation that Omega would join WWE, but given his tight relationship with AEW’s founders—Cody Rhodes and the Young Bucks—him joining the promotion was always a foregone conclusion.
WWE Superstars lurking in Jericho’s comment section will certainly keep flames to the rumors so many of Vince McMahon’s soldier being interested in joining AEW. In recent weeks, the idea of Superstars jumping ship has dominated headlines with names like Randy Orton and Dean Ambrose being heavily implicated.
We’ll have to wait and see on major moves like that, but it looks like we can count on Alpha vs. Omega II on May 25.
