Rey Fenixs AEW status has been a hot topic for months, with fans wondering if hes on his way out of the company. Many have criticized Tony Khan for keeping the former AEW Tag Team Champion under contract while seemingly doing nothing with him. Now, in a move thats only adding fuel to the speculation, AEW has wiped Fenixs merchandise from their official store.
Anyone trying to access Fenixs page on ShopAEW.com is met with a 404 error, and searching for his name turns up nothing. This sudden disappearance has led to even more speculation that Fenix could be on the verge of being released. Fans were already talking after reports surfaced that he was looking for ways to get fired from AEW, with Dave Meltzer previously stating, I think right now Fenix is looking at being fired.
This isnt the first time Fenix has been at odds with AEW. Last year, he seemingly called them out over what he described as inhumane treatment and a lack of medical support. That, combined with the recent merch removal, has only intensified rumors that his AEW days are numberedespecially since his brother Penta just made his WWE RAW debut on January 13, taking on Chad Gable.
Now, Fenix himself has addressed the situation. Taking to Twitter on January 28, he posted: Thank you all for your support and love always, for your messages and good wishes. All people who are interested in official Rey Fnix merchandise can follow us on IG and place their orders.
This statement makes it clear that Fenix is moving his merch sales away from AEWs official platform, but it doesnt answer the burning questionwhats next for him? With WWE already bringing in his brother, fans are hoping its just a matter of time before Fenix joins him.
