Fans have been speculating about whether Kenny Omega will undergo surgery after being diagnosed with diverticulitis in December and when he will be back.

Dave Meltzer shared the latest on his status in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter. He wrote,

“While no decision has been made, it looks more likely than not that Kenny Omega will be getting surgery on his intestines. He’s had his ups and downs but has largely been dealing with a good amount of pain for months now. He said surgery is becoming more and more likely as two different doctors have told him they think it’s the best option. It’s not 100 percent that he will have surgery but it’s looking more likely, particularly if he wants to get into condition to resume his career that he will probably have to get rid of the perforated sections of his intestine and colon.”
