Kenny Omega is the new IWGP United States Heavyweight Champion. ## After Will Ospreay defended the IWGP United States Heavyweight Championship at Historic X-Over, his celebration was interrupted by a video from AEW's Kenny Omega. Omega blamed Ospreay for not being a suitable replacement for him in NJPW. ## After receiving a call from management, decided to return to the company after four years and challenged Ospreay for the title at Wrestle Kingdom, which Ospreay accepted. ## At NJPW Wrestle Kingdom 17, Kenny Omega (with Don Callis) defeated Will Ospreay (c) (with United Empire (Aaron Henare, Catch 2/2 (TJP and Francesco Akira), Great-O-Khan and Jeff Cobb)) to become the new IWGP United States Heavyweight champion. ## What an amazing, perfect match. Kenny Omega vs. Will Ospreay. Built without contact with interesting interviews, headlines, press conferences and videos. Paid off with an immediate, all-time classic match.

The Elite made their respective return to AEW at Full Gear in a Six-man tag team match for the AEW World Trios Championship against Death Triangle (Pac, Penta El Zero Miedo, and Rey Fénix). ## Before making their return, they were two and a half months away from the company. Finally, their return happened at Full Gear but failed to reclaim the AEW Trios Championships losing to Death Triangle's PAC, Rey Fenix, and Penta El Zero M. ## The Elite was off television at AEW All Out 2022 after a backstage altercation with CM Punk resulted in multiple suspensions, the firing of Ace Steel, and left CM Punk's AEW status in question. In later interviews, Tony Khan stated that he had nothing but positive things to say about CM Punk's contributions to AEW. ## #TheELITE are BACK!!!@youngbucks @KennyOmegamanX Watch #AEWFullGear LIVE on PPV right now🔗https://t.co/ufkkXQTkk6 pic.twitter.com/uE8VrR04eb— All Elite Wrestling (@AEW) November 20, 2022 ## Is that Good Night for #DeathTriangle?!Watch #AEWFullGear LIVE on PPV right now🔗https://t.co/ufkkXQBJsy pic.twitter.com/sd86MGEZOI— All Elite Wrestling (@AEW) November 20, 2022 ## To stay updated with all the latest combat sports news, add Sacnilk.com to your Google News feeds and follow us on Twitter.
