Kenny Omega Praises SGW Uganda, ‘It’d Be Cool To Test Their Athletes Or Go Out There Myself’
Kenny Omega is a fan of SGW.
SGW in Uganda is arguably the fastest-rising promotion in wrestling, with the likes of Will Ospreay taking notice. The promotion has even attracted CIMA and Maximum Male Models (Mace & Mansoor) to make cameo appearances.
Speaking on his Twitch stream, Kenny Omega was asked for his thoughts on the promotion.
“Yes. Yes, I think we all are,” he said when asked if he was a fan of the promotion. “SGW Uganda, one thing that I really love and appreciate about it is that when you’re watching it, you can feel the heart of the athletes. It’s infectious to see the passion of these people and the passion of through their work. Even in the most rudimentary of ways, they wrestle on a dirt ring. It looks like bamboo posts. Visually, there are ropes, but I don’t think you can run them. You understand by watching that they are in there trying to do a professional wrestling show. I think they are doing a great job entertaining the fans. They are clearly doing a great job entertaining people online. It’s quite impressive actually that a promotion with a small start and humble beginning has been able to attract so much attention around the world. As you’ve seen, they had a couple of folks from WWE visit there very recently. AEW alumni CIMA took his STRONGHEARTS there. This place, it’s getting traction. I think that’s wonderful. It’s cool. It’d be great to test their athletes or go out there myself.”
SGW has been making headlines all year with wrestlers around the world taking notice. Maximum Male Models (Mace & Mansoor) made a surprise appearance at a recent show, confronting Lord White.
