Esteemed artist Nobuo Uematsu, a staple of the Final Fantasy series, and Jason Charles Miller contributed to this innovative theme.
The debut of this song is scheduled for the Wrestle Dynasty event on January 5.

Kenny Omega, a prominent figure in AEW wrestling, has unveiled through his social media channels that he will be introducing a brand new theme song at New Japan Pro Wrestling’s (NJPW) Wrestle Dynasty. This theme has been expertly crafted by Masayoshi Soken, known for his remarkable work on Final Fantasy 14 and the upcoming FF16. Omega notably highlighted the involvement of the legendary Nobuo Uematsu and fellow musician Jason Charles Miller in this project, showcasing a blend of talent supportive of Omega’s wrestling persona.

This announcement coincided with NJPW’s premier event, Wrestle Kingdom 19. Both Wrestle Kingdom and Wrestle Dynasty form a two-night extravaganza at the iconic Tokyo Dome, featuring an array of talent from AEW, NJPW, and Ring of Honor. The Wrestle Dynasty event is set for January 4, commencing at 11:00 PM Eastern time. Fans can access the live event through the TrillerTV app available on compatible Roku or Amazon Fire smart TVs, or via their web browser. Viewers can purchase Wrestle Dynasty for $29.99 through the TrillerTV platform, which includes three months of on-demand viewing rights, ending on April 5.

In the lead-up to his anticipated singles match against Gabe Kidd, Omega shared the excitement of entering the ring accompanied by his new theme. In his Twitter announcement, Omega promised a captivating introduction under the banner of the new song created by Soken. He emphasized the collaborative efforts of Uematsu for the intro and Miller’s vocal contributions. Known for his elaborate and engaging entrances, Omega’s performances often draw inspiration from his passion for video games, famously incorporating elements from the Final Fantasy franchise, including a dance entrance reminiscent of Sephiroth at Wrestle Kingdom 17. Omega’s finishing move, named after Uematsu’s renowned piece, “One-Winged Angel,” further solidifies this connection.
