8 Ways Wrestlers Secretly Proved They Were The GOAT

2. Kenny Omega Became The Belt Collector Whilst Suffering From Vertigo And More

Kenny Omega had already established himself as one of the world's very best before he even arrived in The Land of All Elite.

But by the time his Belt Collector run came to an end, many were quite rightly saluting 'The Cleaner' as one of the greatest of all time.

And it wasn't just his exceptional displays against everyone from Bryan Danielson to Jon Moxley to 'Hangman' Adam Page or his consistently outstanding character work alongside the despicable Don Callis that highlighted just how brilliant this legend was.

It would eventually be revealed that the mighty Omega was actually privately dealing with a frightening amount of injuries during this world class spell.

By the time he worked Page in their Full Gear 2021 classic, the then-AEW World Champion's shoulders were so destroyed, he couldn't lift heavy weights. He was also dealing with knee problems, a hernia, and had been suffering from vertigo since as far back as 2018, too.

Hell, The Elite star even went as far as to admit that he had learned how to wrestle in a spinning ring when he suddenly got dizzy mid-match.

So, in hindsight, the fact Omega was still somehow able to produce the sort of mesmerising five-star performances he did during that unquestionably painful reign is about as astonishing as it gets.
