On the AEW Revolution 2022 media call, Tony Khan told Sean Ross Sapp that he would be interested in bringing the titles to TV when Kenny Omega returns.
“It’s something there is a lot of interest in. I’ve seen that. We have a lot of great trios here. I am very interested in it, I’ll be 100% honest, this is the most-blunt answer I can give, I’m much more receptive to doing it when Kenny Omega is back because I think that is going to happen. When Kenny Omega is back, the trios division is that much stronger. We could do a great tournament now and have a great trios division, but he would make it that much stronger, and I have so much respect for him and he was such a great champion for us and we could have by far the best trios division that anybody could put together with how strong our roster is and how many trios are already together and have experience working together and I would love for Kenny Omega to be a part of it,” said Tony.
Omega has been out of action since AEW Full Gear 2021 and it is unknown when he will return to TV. Fightful Select reported on July 19 the tentative plans that certain staff was made aware of was that Kenny Omega and the Young Bucks were slated for a 6-man tag program for September’s All Out PPV
