Kenny Omega Beats Takeshita to Win AEW International Title at 2025 Revolution

Kenny Omega defeated Konosuke Takeshita at AEW Revolution on Sunday to win the International Championship.

Omega and Takeshita put on a classic with a ton of memorable moments that had fans chanting, "Fight forever!" In the end, Omega added another title to his legendary resume.

After missing just over a year of action due to injury, Omega returned to the ring in January, beating Gabe Kidd at Wrestle Dynasty. After that, it wasn't long before he turned his attention to Takeshita and the Don Callis Family.

Prior to landing on the shelf in 2023, Omega feuded with Takeshita, leading to a pair of pay-per-view matches at All In and All Out.

Takeshita, Jay White and Juice Robinson beat Omega, Kota Ibushi and "Hangman" Adam Page in a six-man tag team match at All In 2023, and Takeshita followed that up by defeating Omega a week later in a singles bout at All Out.

Shortly after his return, Omega began mixing it up with Takeshita and his former close friend in Callis once again, leading to a tag team match at Grand Slam Australia last month, which saw Omega and Will Ospreay take down Takeshita and Kyle Fletcher.

Following the victory, Omega made it clear that he had even greater ambitions, and he laid down a challenge to Takeshita for an international title bout at Revolution.

First, Takeshita had to defend the title against Orange Cassidy on the Feb. 26 episode of Dynamite. Once he was successful, Takeshita vs. Omega became official for Revolution.

In addition to trying to beat Takeshita in a singles match for the first time, Omega entered Revolution in search of his first AEW singles title since dropping the AEW World Championship in November 2021.

Omega was up to the task, as he finally got the better of Takeshita in a one-on-one affair and became international champion for the first time in the process.
