* ButForMeItWasTuesday: Paraphrased the quote from Film/StreetFighter when describing his first appearance on Wrestling/ImpactWrestling. How appropriate that Impact airs on Tuesday nights.

* AmbiguouslyBi: While it isn't the full depth of who he is as a character or performer, the fact that Kenny is bisexual has been patently established. The only part that's "ambiguous" is the nature of his off-and-on TagTeam and complicated relationship with Kota Ibushi, which has been heavily suggested to be romantic but has never been stated as an OfficialCouple.
** Kenny seems very comfortable around other guys, has liked tweets where he's referred to as bi, has also previously mentioned being so dedicated to his work that he has no time for a "boyfriend or girlfriend", and has openly stated he swings both ways.
** In (kayfabe?) interviews where he's asked about dating, Kenny has also made references to being bisexual. In ''NJPW On The Road: Kenny Omega #5'', Kenny says "I need to start searching for a wife or a boyfriend." In another interview, he asks the interviewer "woman or a man?" He replies "Oh you mean a woman" after the interviewer clarifies her question.
** During his Bullet Club run, Omega and Ibushi would keep all interactions to a bare minimum for years, but they still managed to keep the hype for an eventual match at nuclear levels due to their mutual pining both in interviews and on social media. When the two re-joined forces in 2018 it was very much framed as two former romantic partners re-uniting. Add on top of that Wrestling/CodyRhodes kissing Kota to make Kenny jealous and the whole Bullet Club split looks more like Kenny being caught in a love triangle. Kenny even retweeted a thread on twitter calling the whole storyline "a happy gay romance." Kenny has also taken other opportunities to reference Kota as his lover/partner in the ring and out. The official Golden Lovers CD Album apparently has a picture of Kenny and Kota kissing behind the CD.
** The "bi" part of it is brought up when Brandi, Cody's wife, kisses Kenny. She claims he likes it and is a fraud, but since he "swings both ways", it would make sense that Kenny might enjoy a kiss from a woman like Brandi. (Cody confirmed that the "fraud" thing was more about Kenny kissing his stablemate's wife despite his reunion with Ibushi, [[InsaneTrollLogic deliberately ignoring that it was Brandi who initiated the smooch as a distraction for Cody's attack]].)

* ALighterShadeOfBlack: His stint as Bullet Club leader led to this. While he gladly honored Bullet Club's time-honored heel tactics for his first year and showed a lot of unity on that front with his stablemates, he slowly morphed into a tweener who had occasional babyface behavior and was mainly heel only due to his association with Bullet Club.
