10 Wrestlers Who Are Totally Straight Edge
5. Kenny Omega
Omega, a hybrid of anime, video games and cinema, is considered by a large portion of fans as the best professional wrestler of his era, if not of all time. So outstanding are his matches Dave Meltzer had to invent another star for his ratings scale.
Omega leads his life straight edge. In 2016, Omega confirmed on his Twitter account in reference to himself ‘no alcohol, tobacco or drugs’. That aggressiveness he portrays in the ring is all natural. His avoidance from alcohol has even turned up in AEW storylines recently with Adam Page, with Omega trying to get a frustrated Page to drink water rather than beer, thinking he’s been overdoing it on beer.
You may wonder if Omega doesn’t drink then why is there beer in front of him in post-match interviews in Japan after he wins matches? It's a sponsorship thing. The beers can usually be seen at the table (especially after main events) regardless of who is sitting there. The NJPW ring canvas has even had the Coors Light logo on at different times. If you see Kenny drinking after a match, it’s most definitely water.
