Kenny Omega recently spoke with ESPN.com about his career. Here are the highlights.

On his character:

“Part of what makes my character work is the delivery of the truth behind my comments,” Omega said. “It’s easy to make rude comments simply for the sake of being rude, but I’d much rather go a more psychological route. When you consider some of the things I said, yes, you can say I’m an a–h—, but I’m not wrong.”

On winning the G-1 Climax

“In every way, it’s the biggest, most important victory for me,” Omega said. “I felt like I was struggling to tell this message and to show the world something in little tiny bits, but during the G1 I was given the opportunity to show much larger chunks of what my idea of pro wrestling is.”

On Japanese wrestling:

“I loved Japanese culture before even realizing it was, in fact, Japanese culture,” Omega said. “The cartoons and anime I was watching as a child, my favorite video games and even in pro wrestling — my favorite wrestlers and matches originated in Japan. Learning Japanese was certainly a task, but my passion for the culture, as well as my will to communicate with fans and friends, always encouraged me to continue.”
