Penta El Zero Miedo, known for his role in the popular Lucha Brothers tag team with Rey Fenix, has been a major presence in AEW since the companys inception in 2019. As their contracts near expiration and rumors of a potential move to WWE increase, Konnan has accused AEW of spreading negative leaks to tarnish the Lucha Brothers reputation.
As previously reported,Penta El Zero Miedos AEW contract is set to expire between August and September2024, making him a potential free agent. He is reportedly open to exploringopportunities outside AEW, with WWE showing interest in securing his services.
The same situation applies to Rey Fenix, as both wrestlers contracts are set to end this year. There is astrong belief within AEW that Penta El Zero Miedo and Rey Fenix might be heading to WWE once their contracts expire.
Lately, there have been rumors of The Lucha Brothers being lazy, evil, selfish, and difficult to work with as they are currently on their way out of AEW. While speaking on Keepin It 100, Konnan addressed these rumors.
Konnan accused AEW of leaking negative information as a strategy to tarnish the reputations of the Lucha Brothers, Pentagon and Rey Fenix, as they prepare to leave the company. He questions why such negative stories are surfacing now and why similar issues were never reported when they worked with other promotions like Impact, MLW, or AAA.
Konnan believes that these leaks are a tactic to portray the Lucha Brothers in a negative light, implying that AEW is attempting to justify their departure by making it seem as though the company didnt want them, rather than acknowledging they were let go. He also points out that Pentagon and Fenix have always tried to excel in their performances, despite facing injuries and challenges, and emphasizes that taking losses is part of the business.
In the meantime,Rey Fenix has also pulled out of an indie even in September. Possible names for theLucha Brothers after their AEW departurehave also been revealed. Nevertheless, well have to see how the Lucha Brothers will fare once they are in WWE, as fans want them to succeed in a big way.
