Sans from Undertale hit the big time recently when it was revealed he would be appearing in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate as a costume for the Mii Gunner. So, where does the popular character go from here? To the All Elite Wrestling circuit, of course.
As part of the AEW Halloween celebrations, the executive vice president, wrestler and Undertale fan Kenny Omega dressed up as the cult-hit skeleton and walked out on-stage with the game's Megalovania track playing in the background.
Here's a brief glimpse, courtesy of the Twitter user @GIFSkull (fast forward to the one-minute mark for the walkout):

If you're curious to know how it all ended, Sans (Omega) defeated his opponent with a "one winged angle finisher" but was then attacked ringside by another wrestler and got beaten to a pulp.
As a reminder, Sans and his music track for Smash Bros. can be purchased and downloaded directly from the Switch eShop. Or, if Smash isn't your thing, you could always download and play Undertale instead.
What do you think about Sans making his debut as a wrestler? Tell us below.

People really expanded this meme to an extreme.
nice to c SANS UNDERTALE make his furst public appearance.🎊
@RareFan
I smell a PR company behind this and that includes the Smash costume, lot of money being spent to have this game and it’s horrendous fanbase rammed down our throats.
@SalvorHardin
The sad thing is, that Undertales seems to be a charming game with likeable and unique characters, but fans turned it into this big meme on the internet and it is only popular because of that. Most fans seem also to care more about the memes rather than the game itself.
@SalvorHardin Kenny Omega is just a really big fan of Undertale. His entrance for his final match in New Japan was a direct reference to the game.
Makes me wish that Sans was a Mii Brawler costume instead of Gunner.
@RareFan I wonder what the internet would be like if Sans wasn't in the game.
@SalvorHardin This isn't the first video game-related thing Kenny's done. If I remember correctly, I think he knows Toby Fox IRL?
@CoastersPaul He also cosplays as video game and anime characters for matches and has named some of his moves after games. Like the V-Trigger and his finisher The One Winged Angel.
The dude is a massive gamer.
@AnnoyingFrenzy
They will probably find something else to meme the life out of it. This is the highest amount of entertainment people get today: Memes. Why do you think Sonic, Rick and Morty, and My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic is so popular? Because of the memes.
@RareFan Oh I know, but without Sans think of the variety!
OH MY GOD OH MY GOD JESUS
YEAH HOW WILL TOBY REACT TO THIS
THE INTRO WAS AMAZING
That was brilliant.
Toby's living the dream rn
His Tekken reference a few months ago was great.
Now I'm looking forward to finally see some footage of the upcoming AEW game. Hopefully they don't mess it up but with Kenny Omega standing behind it we might get a pretty good wrestling game.
@RareFan It's sad the only thing I only knew Undertale for at the beginning was that the fanbase... found the goat mom "sexy" cringe. It's pretty much a meme at this point(The game) and I honestly never had much interest in playing it in the first place, but people in the fanbase still keep bringing it up like it's the greatest game in the world.
@CoastersPaul @SalvorHardin At the Fyter Fest PPV Kenny Omega, and the Young Bucks did a homage to Street Fighter II where the Young Bucks were dressed as Ken and Ryu and Kenny was Akuma. The even had the lights go out and the Kanji appeared across the screen when Kenny came out like Akuma's finisher.
@RareFan To be fair Sonic's time in the spotlight was mostly because of how terrible the design is. I'd say Rick and Morty was already getting more popular, and the memes behind it exploded because everybody was already watching the show and understood the references. Same with Avengers, that film was the highest grossing film of all time and that helped the success of the movie's memes.
Also I'd like to point out that aside from a small pocket of people in the internet, you'd be hard pressed to find someone who watches My Little Pony (unless it's someone's younger sibling). It's really not as popular as you may think it is.
I really don't get it, I was bored with the game after about an hour. Bloody internet hypes...
Oh yeah, I love AEW and Kenny Omega!
This freakin' nerd is pure gold.
His appearance with The Young Bucks as Street Fighter's own Ryu, Ken and Akuma was also pretty rad!
This is amazing!
Thanks for the spoiler chaps. This hasn't aired in the UK yet! No need to post the match result. Bad form.
if the 80s had Bartmania and the 90s had Pokemania, the 10s has Sansmania.
Undertale was good for sure. And I love wrestling. But this is like if Macho Man dressed as Super Mario and changed his intro music to a Mario Song. Actually that would've been awesome...redacted
@Tisteg80 if they’re really making a game about AEW, let’s hope it’s an over the top action game, kinda like WCW vs nWo Revenge. The WWE games are boring now, the moment they decided to make them more “realistic” and make the games like simulators, all the fun was gone.
So that was where they found Sans before Smash...
Is he the one that “wrestled” the blow up doll?
@RareFan I can say with confidence that I have no desire to ever play Undertale because of its insufferable fans.
@RareFan *people. Try defining them a little bit less broadly.
It’s sad to see all these negative comments about undertale. I’m not part of it’s “fan base” but I’ve played through most of it and it’s spectacular. It does so much that very few games can, it makes you feel truly connected to all the characters, and it’s just something you have to see to believe. If you don’t want to try it out, just watch a play through on someone’s channel (Ryukahr has a really good one). I hate most of the fan base because they’re cringe, but it’s an amazing game.
thats Kenny Omega for ya he also dresses up as Sephiroth
I always loved Kenny Omega, great stuff! You can tell he must like video games.
