Fighting the Streets with Kenny Omega

Sure, he can throw hadoukens in the wrestling ring, but how are his Street Fighter skills in the real world of video games? As it turns out, pretty good.

This was rad. I love it when GB comes out with content like this. More random non-traditional content, please!

In my 40+ years of life, I have never had any interest in "Pro" wrasslin'. I really did enjoy this segment though and love all of the Giant Bomb crew and supporters.

As a man who's life mostly consists of work, video games, wrestling, and street fighter, I love this type of content.

Well I guess I'm the only GB user that don't really know who Kenny Omega is. Other than being a wrassler obviously.

Shame I don't really care much about wrestling since a lot of GB content constantly have references to wrestling in them.

This video might still be really good but the constant wrestling focus this website has had since Dan started has begun to slowly kill a lot of my enjoyment in GB's content. I mostly love Dan's contributions and his energy but it would be really cool if he could go through just one podcast or ql without mentioning anything wrestling related.

Sorry for the mini rant but I felt like I just needed to say something about it. It's probably cool if you are really into wrestling and all but as someone who isn't it can be pretty tiresome.

I realize I might get a lot of flack for this comment but it's how I feel about it. I might watch this video at some point, and maybe Kenny Omega is really cool, but I just can't stand any more wrestling stuff at this moment.

Dan: "As a Mega Man fan, Kenny, are you interested in Mighty No. 9 at all?"
Kenny: "HAAA NO!!!"

This is the first time I've watched a fighting game video on this website.

Also Canada is still pretty good at Pro Wrestling.

@castiel: I really do hope you give Kenny a chance, when he does these podcast/ video unless they mention wrestling, he wont bring it up. He really just wants to be apart of the fgc. Really great guy!

Kenny is such a genuinely nice and cool dude. It's great that you recorded a video with him.

The episode of Begin Japanology featuring Omega is an interesting watch if you want to know a little bit more about him as a person.

As a non-American (and therefore non-wrasslin' fan), I concur. That being said - I won't continue to watch this video, and that's fine. With the loss of Austin, let's hope someone with less mainstream tastes can fill his shoes a little more.

@castiel: to me it's quite disingenuous to say the site's been taken over by wrestling, but i guess it depends on your tolerance level. you should also give this a chance sometime.

nope, i've probably never even seen this guy before. I'm 20 minutes in and it's been all about Street Fighter and other Capcom games.

don't care about your opinion of Dan because it mirrors my own and subsequently why i began to fall in love with GBeast, but this wrestling guy is enjoyable, and I actually do enjoy when other wrestlers show up since they definitely know how to be in front of a camera for entertainment and do seem to love games which is what Giant Bomb is about.

I turned this off when I realised Kenny Omega wasn't *actually* a new SFV character.

I think Kenny Omega could rock a pretty good Alex cosplay. Also, he could probably do a couple of his moves.

Anyone not watching this video because it has a pro wrestler in it should definitely reconsider. This video isn't about wrestling, it's about Street Fighter V. And for what it's worth, Kenny Omega seems like a really cool dude.

Also, that Mighty No 9 reaction was hilarious.
