Transcendent athletes need the opportunity to create.
If you wouldn’t tell Patrick Mahomes how to play quarterback, or question the way Nikola Jokić operates his inside-outside game, or even explain the finer points of hitting (or pitching) to Shohei Ohtani, then why are people telling Kenny Omega how to wrestle?
It is a question Omega has grappled with since last month’s Forbidden Door pay-per-view. That isn’t to imply Omega discarded people’s genuine well-wishes after taking a devastating looking Tiger Driver at the pay-per-view, where he was effectively dumped on his head by Will Ospreay. Omega appreciates people caring about his health, but also feels he has earned the right as an artist to wrestle a style that he believes will be the most effective.
