Kenny Omega announced last month that he will be taking an indefinite break after he was diagnosed with diverticulitis.
Omega initially went to the hospital, suspecting another hernia, which he had previously dealt with in 2022. Omega was experiencing bloating and thought it was due to a poor diet. Omega had been in a lot of pain for quite some time before seeking medical attention.
Dave Meltzer reported in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter that Omega has still not had surgery. He wrote,
“Due to the inflammation being so bad he couldn’t have surgery at the time and as of last week still hadn’t had it. The decision will be made in about seven weeks, based on his healing, on whether he’ll need surgery or not, but if he does, that would put him out of action significantly longer. There is no time frame on when he will return at this point.”

Kenny Omega, one of the top professional wrestlers in the world, recently announced that he will be taking an indefinite break from the ring due to his diagnosis of diverticulitis. This news came as a shock to fans and the wrestling community, as Omega has been a prominent figure in the industry for many years.
Diverticulitis is a condition that occurs when small pouches, called diverticula, form in the lining of the digestive system and become inflamed or infected. It can cause symptoms such as abdominal pain, bloating, and changes in bowel movements. In Omega’s case, he initially thought his symptoms were related to a poor diet, but after experiencing prolonged pain, he sought medical attention.
According to Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Omega has not yet undergone surgery for his condition. The inflammation was so severe that surgery was not possible at the time of his diagnosis. The decision on whether he will need surgery will be made in about seven weeks, based on his healing progress. If surgery is required, it would significantly prolong his time away from the wrestling ring.
The exact timeline for Omega’s return is uncertain at this point. It will depend on his recovery and the outcome of his medical treatment. Fans and fellow wrestlers have expressed their support for Omega during this challenging time, wishing him a speedy recovery.
