The future of AEW star Penta El Zero Miedo is looking uncertain as new reports suggest his contract is set to expire next week, making him a potential free agent. According to Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful Select, Pentas time with AEW isnt for much longer, and the door may soon open for him to explore new opportunities, including a possible move to WWE.
Earlier this summer, it was reported that both Penta and his brother Rey Fenix were nearing the end of their AEW contracts, with injury time being added to extend their deals. However, sources within AEW reportedly believe that Pentas deal is now approaching its final days. Word within All Elite Wrestling is that Pentas deal will be up next week, and hell effectively become a free agent, barring some unforeseen changes, Sapp reported.
While no official communication from WWE has confirmed interest in Penta, the rumor mill suggests the company may want to bring in the Lucha Bros as a package deal. Pentas high-flying, crowd-pleasing style could make him an attractive addition to WWEs main roster, especially as the company continues to invest in international talent.
Indie promotions are also eyeing Penta for high-profile matches, with booking inquiries reportedly flooding in should he become available. Pentas recent comments about leaving contract negotiations to his legal team have fueled speculation about his next steps. He recently told Mas Lucha, My present in AEW, Im still firm with them, and quite frankly, I dont know what will happen in the future.
Rey Fenixs contract situation remains slightly more complex, with injury time potentially keeping him tied to AEW for longer. However, both brothers futures appear to be at a crossroads, and the wrestling world is watching closely.
Will Penta take his talents to WWE, dominate the indie scene, or find a way to re-sign with AEW? The clock is ticking, and fans are eager for answers.
