Fans hoping for a Lucha Brothers reunion in WWE may be disappointed. Reports from the Wrestling Observer Newsletter indicate that while Pentagon’s AEW contract expires this month, paving the way for a potential WWE debut, his brother Rey Fenix is in a different situation. Fenix is reportedly under contract with AEW, but with no plans for his immediate use. This effectively means he will be paid to remain inactive for the duration of his contract.
This news has sparked debate, with some criticizing AEW’s handling of Fenix’s situation. However, it’s important to remember that AEW President Tony Khan has previously raised concerns about alleged contract tampering by WWE. Furthermore, the practice of retaining talent, even without utilizing them on-screen, is a strategy WWE has employed for many years.
While Pentagon’s potential move to WWE opens up exciting possibilities for his career, the future remains unclear for Rey Fenix. Presumably, he’ll end up in WWE too but it’s not happening in the near future.
