Episode 53: The Omega Effect

He may be the 37 Star Match darling of Dave Meltzer & "Best Bout Machine" in 2019, but a decade ago Kenny Omega was fighting to prove he even belonged in Ring of Honor with the elite names of pro wrestling. This night in Canada was his chance to not only prove it, but also to surpass many of those names by claiming the World Title from Austin Aries. For the champ, whose 2nd title run had been pretty much hated by fans & office alike, this night was one to show the flames of The Wrestling Machine still burned in Aries. Join Jeff & Shane as they dive into this 2009 event to explore the title bout, the Baby Bucks, why Rhett owes us an apology, and more!!!
