Hoping for 10-12 in AEW.
What do you guys think? He has never drank alcohol and think he could just be getting started on his best run

alcohol or no alcohol, the dude is hard on his body. 10-12 years at his current level to me seems impossible, but a lot of things he’s done most would’ve deemed impossible already.

Let's go 5 years at a time.
I think 5 more is a lock, 10 feels possible.

It's impossible to say. His gimmick is being the "Best Bout Machine." How long physically can he keep that up? Probably at least another 3-5 years.
How long could he wrestle? There's no reason to think he couldn't continue to be a top of the card name into his late 40's, but would need to change his style and go more towards character work ala Matt Hardy and Jericho. There's also the question of how long does he WANT to keep going at this pace. Assuming AEW continues, he or any of the Elite guys could easily transition into focusing exclusively on backstage with the occasional in ring feud.

I can see him doing goofy & low impact stuff in DDT once he gets to that point. I don't know if he'll ever stop. |

I think if he keeps working how he is, 5 years is the limit. But I think he will play his cards the right way and not tear his body apart. Hoping for many many years of Omega!

Considering he's never had alcohol probably about 30 years. But if we realise not drinking alcohol probably doesn't have much of an effect on the longevity of someone's career *cough* CM Punk *cough* then who knows..
his style is high risk and hard bumps which makes me think about the wear on his body is he willing to wrestle a slower less bumpy pace or would he bow out in a "if I can't maintain this style I'm out" type fashion.
But then you look at guys like Jeff Hardy who's been in the ring for decades wrestling the way he does and avoided any major injuries until last year (?)
Career longevity is so hard to predict because there's too many variables.

I think he'll go another 10 years, depending on if he stays injury-free. I think he'll probably end up in WWE after his AEW contract is up and finish up there

Maybe because he wants to wrestle in the biggest promotion before he retires along with saying he would consider it and has actually negotiated with them before? You didn't see Shawn Michaels and Triple H jump to WCW when Hall and Nash left |

You didn't see Shawn Michaels and Triple H jump to WCW when Hall and Nash left negotiated with them before AEW existed. I don’t see how the Kliq is in the least relevant. michaels most likely didn’t make the jump because he knew he’d be small fish in comparison to getting to tell Vince how he should be used. Hogan would’ve chewed up and spat out a young HBK. and triple h? he’d barely even left wcw and been in the wwf by that point. as long as AEW exists, omega in wwe isn’t in the cards. |

Many of you guys are biased to AEW, and I understand why. They’re the “hot commodity” right now. Before you attempt to ridicule me of siding with WWE, I will admit to you that they are not the greatest either. However, the hype for AEW is going to go down eventually, then it will be more even. Kenny Omega has even expressed interest in going to WWE, so I would never rule it out towards the end of his career. Before you disagree with me, let me say that I 100% predict Chris Jericho will return to WWE to end his career |

Omega switching to WWE where they will absolutely butcher him as they do every other talent would not benefit him and he knew that. he could’ve gone a few years ago during the height of his popularity after his NJPW run. he made the smart choice not to. and obviously Jericho will be back in wwe at some point. everyone already has been saying that from the get-go. |

His first few years were so refreshing, but since that ball kicking contest with Shinsuke he's been mediocre at best. |

My main reason for patching onto AEW is WWE has shown me for 10 years they don’t build new stars and when the washed up old guys are gone they’ll suffer because of this model. It’s a mess |
