So looks like Kenny Omega has spoken to the WWE at some point:
I have spoken with the heads at NXT, and theyve all said, If you want to come down, let us knowthe second your visa is in place, youre on TV the next week. I thought that was really cool of them to say and I appreciate they recognize that Id add some value to their product, so I always kept that in my mind as an option. But this is going back to my Deep South daysI still havent quite shown them what I can do on my own, and thats what I think this year is going to do for me.
