Kenny Omega Finally Told Truth About Matt Jackson’s Actions At Full Gear 2021

Kenny Omega is finally told the truth about Matt Jackson’s actions at AEW Full Gear 2021.

As previously mentioned, the past few weeks of Being The Elite has seen Dark Order teasing that they were going to tell Kenny Omega the truth about what Matt Jackson did at Full Gear 2021.

At the pay-per-view, Hangman Adam Page defeated Kenny Omega to win the AEW World Championship. Towards the end of the bout, The Young Bucks came down to ringside with Matt Jackson giving Hangman a nod of approval before he hit the final Buckshot Lariat to win the match.

On the May 17 episode of AEW Dynamite, Hangman Page made his return to All Elite Wrestling and reunited with The Elite to brawl with the Blackpool Combat Club in a show closing fight to set up the Anarchy In The Arena at Double Or Nothing.

On the latest episode of Being The Elite, John Silver, Alex Reynolds and Evil Uno were thinking about what to do about telling Omega the truth when they witnessed the reunited Elite singing “Baby Back Ribs” in their locker room and left them.

After this fun bonding experience, Omega decided to get serious and apologized to Page. Kenny said:

“I did some terrible shit back in the day and I don’t know if you’ll ever forgive me, and I don’t know if we can ever go back to the way things used to be, singing and all that goofy stuff that we just did. It’s fun, but I don’t know if you’ll ever be able to fully forgive me. I’m sorry.”

Hangman responded to say:

Yeah, me too. I don’t know. Maybe we won’t get back to this, maybe we won’t. Maybe it’s too late. We’ll do what we can.

This led to the Dark Order having a change of heart and barged into the locker room with Reynolds telling Omega what Matt did at Full Gear 2021. Reynolds said:

“You want to talk about honesty, Kenny? Full Gear, 2021. This motherfucker gave Hangman the nod and gave him his blessing to hit you with the Buckshot Lariat. You could still be AEW World Champion if it wasn’t for him.”

The former AEW World Champion responded:

“Do my ears deceive me? After all this time…”

“Matt, when I was AEW Champion, when I needed to count on you the most out of anybody, when I thought I was all alone in this world, when everyone wanted to see me fall, slip, break my neck, break my back, my pussy and my crack, you could have done the unthinkable.”

“So help me god, I don’t want to swear to you, Matt. You could have…”

Omega went on to reveal that he saw Matt’s actions as a sign of friendship in realizing that it was Hangman’s time to reach the mountaintop. He said:

“Listen to me. You heard what this guy did? When you had the Buckshot Lariat on me, I was a bad guy back then. I wanted to give you one of these, double turkey, hold the mayo, knuckle-duster sandwich, I was gonna give that to you, and Matthew, Matt, what did you do? You could have gave Hanger a little yank.”

“You could have done that, and you didn’t do it. After all this time, finally, these guys tell me the thing that I already knew. Matt, that took a lot of guys. This guy’s a real man. Your name should be Man Jackson because you’re a real man.”

“All this time, you thought I wanted to take shortcuts? It was Hanger’s time. Hanger beat me fair and square. Here he is, all this time, thinking he was the weak link of The Elite.”

“There was no gosh-darn weak link. He was ready to take the reigns, he was ready to be the champion, and you allowed it. Now that is friendship. If that isn’t friendship, I don’t know what the heck is.”

Relieved to hear Omega’s words, Matt Jackson claimed he knew exactly what he was doing and wasn’t worried this whole time, despite being clear that he wasn’t entirely truthful. He said:

That’s why I went there and I did the right thing, Kenny, and I knew exactly what I was doing, and it didn’t stress me out for two years, I didn’t lose sleep over it, didn’t have anxiety attacks or anything.”

“I knew exactly that that was the right thing to do in that moment. Get the little nod. This is great. I feel a lot better after that.”

This revelation will help further the reunion of The Elite ahead of their showdown with the BCC at AEW Double Or Nothing. For the full lineup for the event, click here.
