He is not the WWE Champion.

Omega is, of course, the AEW Champion. Ross made sure to correct himself after the segment was over.

WWE Champion Drew McIntyre gave the following response.

In recent interview, Cody Rhodes and Tony Khan have stated they are open to working with WWE as the "forbidden door" is open to anyone. Tony Khan even "begged" NXT to show up to AEW on Wednesdays, saying he would gladly let them in the building.
