High-Flying Star Expected to Sign Soon, WrestleMania Appearance Possible
Summary
– Rey Fenix is now a free agent after AEW opted not to extend his contract
– WWE is reportedly preparing merchandise and creative plans for his arrival
– A WrestleMania appearance is possible, though no exact timeline has been set
Rey Fenix’s time in AEW has officially ended, and all signs point to him jumping to WWE.
Fightful Select reports that Fenix is now a free agent after AEW surprisingly chose not to add injury time to his contract. While AEW initially planned to keep him locked in for months, they allowed him to walk away entirely instead.
According to sources, WWE wastes no time, with Fanatics already preparing Fenix-themed merchandise and creatively working on storyline ideas. While an exact timeline for his debut is unknown, one WWE source noted that a WrestleMania appearance wouldn’t be out of the question.
Fenix’s departure from AEW wasn’t without controversy. He and his brother Penta were in talks with WWE last year before AEW extended their contracts. Fenix also made vague allegations about mistreatment in AEW, which the company denied. However, insiders believe he had to agree to a non-disparagement clause to secure his release.
With WWE seemingly ready to bring in both Fenix and Penta, fans are eager to see how they will be used whether Fenix joins the tag division or breaks out as a singles star; his high-flying style is set to shake things up in WWE.
