Kenny Omega On Jon Moxley: I Can’t Lose To A Guy From ‘That Place’

All Elite Wrestling (AEW) star Kenny Omega was interviewed by Alicia Atout following Double Or Nothing in Las Vegas last month. Omega was defeated by Chris Jericho in the main event of the night. Now, Jericho will go on to face “Hangman” Adam Page for the inaugural AEW World Championship.

As for Omega, he was viciously attacked by the debuting Jon Moxley after the match ended. The pair brawled all throughout the arena, before Moxley nailed Omega with a DDT on top of the casino chips stack on the entrance stage. It looks like Omega will be feuding with Moxley in his debut program with the promotion. While speaking to Atout, Omega said he can’t lose to a guy from “that place,” referencing WWE (or a subtle shot at Cincinnati?)

“Now that Moxley is a part of us, and I get to get first crack at him, I feel like maybe that’s in my wheelhouse too. It’ll be just as exciting for me, hopefully, as it is for the fans. And now I really have something to train for. Because I can’t lose to a guy that came from that place, you know what I mean?

There’s a little bit of pride on the line. So, Jericho, what we have is not over. You got “Hangman,” and “Hangman” is young, up-and-coming, and once he heals that knee, he’s gonna be 100 percent. And I don’t know if he’s – I don’t know if Jericho can handle him in the current state.”
