Penta El Zero Miedo delivered one of the most heartfelt promos of his career on a recent edition of WWE Raw, proving that passion transcends language. Following his match, he spoke openly about his journey, the responsibility of representing Mexico, and his deep gratitude for the moment.

“Nobody told me what to say,” Penta shared with Dave LaGrega of Busted Open Radio. “I spoke from my heart because I carry the responsibility of my country, my culture, my friends, and legends.”

Although English isn’t his first language, his words resonated with fans around the world. “I know my English is not perfect, but my heart, my soul… I just speak with my spirit. This is my dream.”

Penta’s emotional promo wasn’t just about personal achievement but about inspiring the next generation of luchadors.

“For Mexicans, this is an example: no matter where you are from, your city, your town—if you have passion, you can be the best.”

His presence in WWE highlights the growing influence of Lucha Libre in mainstream wrestling alongside stars like Rey Mysterio, Dragon Lee, and Santos Escobar. His ability to connect with audiences beyond words reinforces why representation matters.

Penta’s journey is far from over, but his Raw speech marked a defining moment in his WWE career. Fans now eagerly await what’s next for the fearless luchador.

Penta El Zero Miedo’s rise to WWE has been filled with unforgettable moments, from Lucha Underground to Impact Wrestling and now WWE. Reflecting on his journey during an interview with Dave LaGreca of Busted Open during Royal Rumble 2025 media day, he credits key figures who helped shape his career.

“Tommy [Dreamer] always gave me the best advice in this business… I want to say thank you for everything. You are my role model,” Penta shared.

His recent WWE match against Chad Gable on the Raw on Netflix premiere episode marked a major milestone in his career as it marked his WWE in-ring debut.

“This match with Chad Gable was the turning point of my career. He is one of the best wrestlers in the world.”

Penta’s adaptability has been key to his success, proving that Lucha Libre can thrive at the highest levels. As WWE continues to embrace international styles, his presence adds to the growing influence of luchadors in mainstream wrestling.

With his fearless attitude and undeniable charisma, Penta is poised for even greater success in WWE. Whether it’s a championship run or dream matches against top talent that WWE has to offer, his journey is still unfolding, and fans are excited to see what’s next.

Penta El Zero Miedo’s WWE signing has been made official, with the announcement teased during the premiere episode of Raw on Netflix. While Penta did not appear live on the show, a cryptic teaser aired, confirming his imminent arrival. However, the exact date of his in-ring debut remains unclear.

WWE has been airing mysterious vignettes in recent weeks, fueling speculation about the signing of the former AEW star. One notable vignette featured a zero symbol crossed by a line, which many fans connected to Penta. These cryptic hints culminated in a teaser aired during the December 30th episode of Raw, where Penta El Zero Miedo’s iconic mask was prominently displayed, effectively ending the speculation.

Penta departed AEW with widespread belief that he was bound for WWE. Adding to the buzz was his trademark for “Cero Miedo” (Zero Fear), which provided further evidence of his intentions.

Meanwhile, Penta’s tag team partner and brother, Rey Fenix, has also attracted WWE’s interest. However, AEW has reportedly extended Fenix’s contract to account for missed time due to injuries, leaving him with approximately a year remaining on his deal. Once Fenix fulfills his AEW obligations, he is expected to join Penta in WWE, reuniting the Lucha Brothers under a new banner.

The countdown to Penta El Zero Miedo’s WWE debut is officially on.

WWE provided the biggest hint yet regarding Penta’s anticipated arrival, with the latest vignette aired during the December 30th episode of Raw. At the end of the teaser, Penta El Zero Miedo’s iconic mask was prominently displayed, confirming weeks of speculation about his signing.

The cryptic vignettes began airing several weeks ago, with one featuring a zero symbol crossed by a line, sparking speculation among fans about the arrival of a former AEW star. Penta departed AEW earlier this month and was rumored to be heading to WWE. His trademark for “Cero Miedo,” translating to “Zero Fear,” added further credibility to the rumors.

Penta is expected to join the Raw roster just in time for the January 6th Netflix debut episode in Los Angeles, marking a significant milestone for WWE programming.

Meanwhile, Penta’s tag team partner, Rey Fenix, has also drawn interest from WWE. However, with AEW reportedly extending Fenix’s contract to account for missed time, it’s believed his deal now has close to a year remaining. Once Fenix is free and clear of his AEW obligations, he is expected to reunite with his brother Penta in WWE.

A new cryptic teaser aired during the December 23 episode of WWE Raw, featuring a zero with a slash through it and a pentagram. This follows the debut of similar teasers on last Monday’s episode, leaving fans speculating about their meaning.

The prevailing belief is that these hints are tied to Penta El Zero Miedo, who recently departed AEW earlier this month. Known for his iconic “Cero Miedo” catchphrase—meaning “Zero Fear”—Penta filed a trademark for the phrase months ago, further fueling speculation about his potential WWE debut.

Penta’s brother and tag team partner, Rey Fenix, is also reportedly on WWE’s radar. However, due to AEW extending his contract to account for injury-related absences, Fenix’s availability is still months away. Once his contract with AEW expires, he is expected to reunite with Penta in WWE.

The teasers, combined with Penta’s recent trademark filing, suggest a possible debut or storyline for the former AEW star in WWE. Fans are eagerly awaiting further developments, and WWE’s cryptic marketing campaign has only added to the intrigue.

For the teaser clip, see WWE’s tweet:

WWE dropped a cryptic teaser during the December 16 episode of Raw, with fans convinced that this is the tease of a former AEW star. The brief vignette showed a zero with a line through it before transitioning into the Raw on Netflix logo. On social media, many believed that the vignette teased the arrival of Penta El Zero Miedo, potentially as part of Raw’s debut on Netflix on January 6.

Penta was quietly removed from AEW’s roster after his contract expired and has since re-established himself as part of Lucha Libre AAA. His brother Rey Fenix, on the other hand, remains part of AEW, despite not competing for the promotion since July. Reports of injury time being added to Rey’s contract will keep him a part of AEW well into 2025, keeping the brothers from making a debut in WWE as a tag-team.

Buzz is already high at Penta’s potential WWE debut, and this tease being followed by a teas for Raw on Netflix leaving fans to wonder whether his debut will come on the January 6, show.

Penta’s return to AAA comes after the former AEW World Tag & Trios Champion was removed from AEW’s roster website. It was reported earlier this month that Penta’s AEW contract has expired, making the 39-year-old wrestler a free agent. Penta’s brother Rey Fenix will reportedly remain with AEW through 2025 after injury time was added to his contract.

Rey Fenix: No-One Stays In A Place Where They Received Inhumane Treatment

Penta debuted in AAA in September 2010, and would remain with the promotion until 2017, citing unhappiness and feeling held back as reasons behind his exit. The following year, Penta returned and would continue to compete sporadically for AAA until 2023. He is a three-time World Tag Team Champion, one-time Mixed Tag Team Champion, and one-time AAA Latin American Champion.

Rey Fenix, alongside Penta El Zero Miedo, has been with All Elite Wrestling since 2019 and the Lucha Bros. are considered one of the greatest tag teams in the company’s history. As of late, there’s been plenty of talk about the future of the tag team in wrestling, and now a social media post from Fenix has left fans believing something big is coming.

On Instagram, Fenix shared several photos, many of which came from his time with All Elite Wrestling. Fenix’s caption “Bendita Lucha Libre, Gracias por todo” (Bless Lucha Libre, thanks for everything) certainly suggested that he is preparing to start a new chapter in his career.

Fenix’s post comes amid reports that he and Penta could soon be part of WWE, if they’re not already. Last month, it was reported that the Lucha Bros. were expected to leave AEW, and when Fenix withdrew from an independent event, many saw it as a sign he’d already joined WWE. Last week, it was reported that the pair had signed a multi-year deal with WWE, one that would see them skip WWE NXT and head straight to the main roster. The comments on the Instagram post saw many wishing the pair well in WWE, believing they are leaving AEW to join Tony Khan’s chief rival.

An update has stated that Fenix and Penta are still under contract with AEW, raising questions as to what the future of the group will look like. Should they join WWE, the pair will follow in the footsteps of the likes of Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes, Women’s Tag Champion Jade Cargill, NXT Champion Ethan Page, and others.

No matter what the future holds, fans can expect to see much more of the talented Rey Fenix and Penta El Zero Miedo in the squared circle. Stay tuned to SEScoops for all the latest on the Lucha Bros. and their futures in wrestling.

“Please stop posting fake news !! My present is AEW !!”

Reports started to float that former AEW World Tag Team Champions The Lucha Brothers (Penta El Zero Miedo and Rey Fenix) are expected to part ways with AEW after their contracts their contract expire later this year. They both have reportedly drawn interest from WWE. It was previously reported that Penta’s contract with AEW will end between August and September.

On August 1, Penta El Zero Miedo filed trademark for the names of “Cero Miedo,” “Zero Miedo,” and “AN1MO” for the meaning of entertainment purposes. Meanwhile, Rey Fenix filed for “King Fuego,” “Rey Fuego,” and “Fuego” all on the same date for the same reason. This further fueled speculation about their future.

Rey Fenix withdrew from an indie appearance which implied that he had signed a deal with WWE. New Era Wrestling confirmed Fenix’s withdrawal from their event which is scheduled for September 2nd. While Penta El Zero Miedo has snubbed the rumors, Rey Fenix has remained tight-lipped about his future.

• AEW’s Rey Fenix Could Be A Free Agent This Year

All Elite Wrestling’s popular tag team, The Lucha Brothers (Rey Fenix & Penta El Zero Miedo), are reportedly expected to leave the company when their contracts expire. While it’s unclear what promotion they plan to sign with, some within AEW expect them to join WWE.

Wrestling free agency has been interesting this year, as several stars from different promotions are seeing their contracts expire. Both WWE and AEW have tried to re-sign some of their performers. However, wrestlers from both companies have either chosen to test free agency or weren’t able to reach a new agreement. One of the notable moves in the industry in recent months was “All Ego” Ethan Page, signing with WWE after spending three years in AEW.

A new report has revealed that the Lucha Bros. will also leave AEW when their deal expires later this year. Ibou, from WrestlePurists (AKA @BackupHangman on X), has shared during WrestlePurists Worldwide review for SummerSlam that his sources within AEW believe they plan to leave, and some expect WWE to sign them. He also noted that the tag team was initially considered to have a title match at All In on August 25, but that has changed. 

He added that he isn’t sure at this time if Death Triangle (Fenix, Penta & PAC) will be featured at the upcoming pay-per-view.

More On Lucha Bros. Potentially Testing Free Agency

While the former AEW World Tag Team Champions are expected to leave AEW, Ibou shared that it’s not completely set in stone that they will go to WWE.

Time will tell what decision Fenix and Penta will make when their current deal expires later this year. However, the move to test free agency makes them a desirable tag team for other promotions to sign. 

More has come to light regarding Penta El Zero Miedo as his current deal with All Elite Wrestling continues to tick away.

It was recently reported that Penta’s contract with AEW will expire between August and September of this year. Penta joined the All-Elite promotion in February 2019. He is a former AEW World Tag Team Champion with Rey Fenix and the pair are also former AEW World Trios Champions alongside Pac.

Latest On Penta El Zerio Miedo In AEW

Penta is open to leaving AEW and going where the best financial offer is, Dave Meltzer reports. It’s noted that Penta believes that his next contract will be “probably his last big money deal” as the masked wrestler is currently 39 years old. Penta is also said to have “a lot of people counting on him” which has left the talented wrestler with a very difficult decision to make.

Penta On WWE Interest

Should Penta leave AEW for a better financial offer, it’s likely that nowhere else would offer him more than WWE. Speaking on COMIENDO CARNITAS, Penta was coy when asked about whether WWE has its eyes on him.

“I prefer to focus on my present and my present is currently with AEW. If any company like WWE wanted to offer me something, I would need to evaluate because there is a lot of interests on the way.”

Ultimately, Penta El Zero Miedo will do what he feels is best for himself and those who rely on him. Time will tell whether we one day call him a WWE Superstar, but for now, the masked star is focused on his work with AEW.

• AEW Alum Reunite On June 11 Episode of WWE NXT

Penta El Zero Miedo has an AEW contract reported expire this summer, but would The Lucha Brother go to WWE?

Lucha Libre Online reported this month that Penta’s current AEW deal is done sometime in August or September and that WWE is interested in scooping the luchador up.

Penta was a guest on COMIENDO CARNITAS, and addressed the matter, stating that the WWE interest was only a rumor. Miedo confirmed that his contract did indeed end in August or September (noting his agent had to remind him). Penta makes clear that AEW is currently where his alliegance stands and prefers to focus on the present.

“There isn’t anything tangible. If there was to be anything tangible, we would need to evaluate it, check what is more convenient both financially and in-ring. Someone told me that it was like playing for Barcelona while you should play for Real Madrid. I can see that perspective, but I am not that young and it would be my last big contract.”

Penta makes clear he has no problems with either company and was asked if he’d be interested in going to WWE.

“It would be a good episode in my career, but I do not like to fantasy book. If it happens, it happens. I am focused on AEW and I am happy where I am at right now. Of course there is some complaints like more focus on the projection and rivalries, like it happens with every wrestler and company.”

Penta signed with AEW back in 2019 wrestled on AEW television earlier this month against The Butcher, but hasn’t been in a prominent television storyline in quite some time.
