Omega always comes off like such a nice dude.

[@bainbridgeomega]

Everyone loves omega. Everyone knows that omega is such a nice dude. The ONLY ones who don’t is that stupid ass Jim Cornette and the C.O.C.K.S (Cult of Cornette Kids)

[@TheKizly]

He's wearing sunglasses indoor. Such a heel

[@damndozer]

Like all the other gays ....no offence though

[@fritobeankip]

@@damndozer he’s literally bi ☠️

[@cmoney1928]

He probably is a nice dude. His wrestling style is polarizing but nobody ever said he was a bad guy.

[@dshawnkirby6494]

Being one of wrestlings biggest names for nearly a decade without stepping foot in a wwe ring is definitely legendary.

[@itsdannygonzales]

Facts!

[@ljmoore6780]

I wish all of wrestling can be like this, just a nice wholesome conversation between great talent

[@cainekass]

Backstage it usually is. But the general public wouldn't be privy to these things for the most part

[@michaeldevault-edmondson531]

She botched on her first night 🤣🤣🤣🤣 She walked out on a contractually obligated match. She had no right. She's nothing but a disgrace to the business.

[@alastairjones7766]

​@@michaeldevault-edmondson531 Didn't Steve Austin "walk out on a contractually obligated match" with Brock Lesnar? Is he a "disgrace" too?

[@Thomas-kp8mo]

@@michaeldevault-edmondson531 Didn’t she have one of the best women’s matches of all time with Bayley and now with Kairi. 🤣🤣 Try again.

[@michaeldevault-edmondson531]

@@Thomas-kp8mo By far no. She's not good at all. Bayley paid her dues for years. Kairi also paid her dues for years. This is her first big full time run outside of WWE and she ruined it on her first night in Japan 🤣🤣🤣🤣. Mercedes did nothing to get to the WWE. She did what only a month or two with barely any training on the indie circuit. Come on broski. Try again. She didn't pay her dues on the indies. Bayley was on the indies for almost 10 years working hard and paying her dues. All Mercedes is for you guys is an unattractive piece of eye candy who wears wigs. That "Latino Heat" wig is tacky as all can be. I swear you guys who like the overrated are the biggest marks of all. Mercedes is also one for herself.

[@EAprima]

How Mercedes felt meeting and talking to Kenny for the first time was the same way I felt when I met and spoke to him too. What a legend. I'm also a huge fan of his.

[@empower5228]

Lucky!

[@washingtonfootballskins]

Hahahahahaha. Legend??

[@chrismalinowski654]

Yup he is. Whether you like him or not.

[@washingtonfootballskins]

[@louquay]

​@@washingtonfootballskinsyour subjective opinion does not change the objective fact that Kenny Omega is an all time great. Probably just salty he keeps turning down WWE

[@darkvctry7482]

Omega is a true legend that transcended the East and West wrestling cultures

[@romanovromano911]

He’s on a short list with those like Aj Styles, Chris Jericho, Brock Lesnar, Finn Balor, and Shinsuke Nakamura.

[@Ryley_Meikle]

I'd say brock aj and omega mostly although the others did do weel

[@Ryley_Meikle]

Well*

For me, AJ Styles and Kenny Omega are the best.

Omega vs Okada was such a great time for wrestling in Japan.

[@MakBot]

Their Dominion 2018 match is my #1 match of all time and I stayed up til 6 in the morning watching it live on NJPWorld

[@connorledwith98]

Feel like they’re about to enter another good few years tbh, they’ve smashed it out the park past year or so and with Mercedes coming in, Kenny wrestling dates and Osprey’s story at the mo, I believe they’re gonna be on the rise again soon

Bro it's crazy how it feels like I'm watching a movie whenever Kenny has a normal conversation.

[@breadpirateoverhere]

It really shocks me that two of the best in the world have never actually met before.

They literally said in the video that they had met before

[@djdarq6311]

Stop 😂😂😂

Everybody in the wrestler group has met each other. It's just the first time their characters interaction on screen.

bruh, don't lump Mercedes in the same sentences with Kenny Omega. Be realistic....

[@_destiny]

2 of my favourites of all time interacting! i was praying that you guys took a photo, video or something and i got it! i love this 💗

[@erikwadethomas3814]

Good to see her having fun being at work again! Her spark has been reignited!

[@MorrisseyMuse]

Yeah, until they book her to lose a match..lol

[@erikwadethomas3814]

@@MorrisseyMuse she's lost tons of matches and always put over new people. The problem is the continuous pushing aside as if she's not one of the best current talent available today. When they push Liv Morgan over you... yeah it's time to quit the company.

Lol Megastars? Omega couldn't even draw viewers in Impact when he was their world champ. Impact is doing much better now. They may not draw as many viewers like they once did, but they're content is fantastic right now & are doing a bunch of things rn.

Based on how kind wrestlers are to each other most of the time like we saw here, I don't get how some people could argue that much in wrestling. This kind of exchange between meeting wrestlers is more common than we all think. I guess sometimes emotions come into play in a wrong manner, cuz these all are very passionate people. It happens everywhere...
