I remember the powerful wave of momentum he had behind him with his rise to the top of the company. Everybody in the main event scene at that time was just putting on banger after banger and he took the world by storm. Literally the first gaijin to win the G1 since Hogan.
Now? He is bloated, busted, missing half of his colon, holding Hangman's dilation wand in his hand as far away from his face as he can because being at AEW show is rancidly odious enough as it is, he's got that 1000 cock stare, he had to punch another notch hole into his belt to hold up his denims around his expanding roid gut because he's too arsed to even bother wearing ring gear, the life and youth are out of his eyes, he's probably in some sort of CTE moment of regret and dull recollection of better times in Japan while hanging and banging with Ibushi, he has Oprah Winfrey biceps with what looks like cakemix inside his arms, he's in a state of nihlistic malaise over how much video games suck these days, his hair looks somehow worse.
This isn't some hot dog and handshake ham and egger. This is Kenny fucking Omega. We all watched him climb from the bottom to the absolute top of the mountain during New Japan's renaissance; IWGP Heavyweight Championship, the IWGP Intercontinental Championship, they had to create the IWGP United States Heavyweight Championship for him to cool him down for his world title run, the NEVER Openweight 6-Man Tag Team and IWGP Jr. Heavyweight tag and singles belt. He won the G1 and ran Bullet Club. This fucker was THE guy; he ticked all the boxes of an international star. His run was legendary in that company and there was no signs they weren't going to bend the world over backwards to keep him there and happy.
Now he can't even run his refrigerators bluetooth ice machine. This is the fat Axl Rose part of his career.
