AEW’s Kenny Omega defeats Demetrious Johnson in Street Fighter 6 match

Kenny Omega emerged victorious in a Street Fighter 6 match, defeating MMA star Demetrious Johnson.

Omega defeated the ONE flyweight champion a Street Fighter 6 match that took place on Crown’s Pit Crew Twitch stream. Omega won the first and third rounds, while Johnson won the second round. The tournament was for charity, with Omega playing for Hulls Haven while Johnson played for Children’s Hospital.

After winning the first round, the rules of the tournament forced Omega to compete with new restrictions, causing him to lose in the second round. Restrictions were then placed on Johnson in round three, but eventually it was decided for all restrictions to be removed. Omega then won the final round with no restrictions.

Johnson and Omega have been trading words for the last month regarding a possible video game bout between one another where the loser would donate to the charity of the winner’s choice. 

Omega most recently competed at AEW WrestleDream where he, Kota Ibushi, and Chris Jericho lost to Konosuke Takeshita, Sammy Guevara, and Will Ospreay. Johnson also appeared in the crowd on Sunday.
