There is no denying that the members of Elite have helped NJPW in becoming a household name among English fans from American countries.
However, while they have helped the company become more popular overseas; there are fans who believe that their comic antics are ruining the original spirit of NJPW.
One such fan recently brought a sign to a show saying that The Elite ruined NJPW. Another fan took a photo of it and tweeted it to Kenny Omega to which Omega replied with the following tweets:

Didn’t I outdraw Tana vs Okada by over 2 times and set attendance records across the board spanning multiple years? Can we talk about that? Nah, didn’t think so 🙄

Later a fan asked if fans are not allowed to disagree with him on anything to which Kenny replied by saying “Cool. I’ll agree next time that I’m destroying a company I sacrificed everything for and pray to the heavens that you like me”:
