10 Wrestlers Who Will NEVER Leave AEW

For a time, Kenny Omega blowing the roof off a WWE arena as a surprise entrant in a Royal Rumble match almost felt like a formality.

Here we are some five years or so on from those rumblings of a Cleaner walking in the very same footsteps of another one-time Bullet Club leader, however, and the sight of the former AEW World Champion being the second All Elite EVP to turn his back on the white-hot promotion is one you can all but count on never becoming a reality.

Omega is about as all-in on all things AEW as humanly possible (pun intended), with his fingerprints found on everything from the incoming All Elite video game to the presentation of the company's Women's division. So, to suddenly jump ship wouldn't entirely add up.

Admittedly, Cody likewise seemed to be very much steeped in TK's brand, starring in his own TNT reality TV show. Yet, despite Omega's contract with AEW running out next year, the promotion's increasingly positive relationship with NJPW and enthusiasm in presenting an alternative to the likes of WWE will likely be enough to retain the services of The Best Bout Machine indefinitely.
