WWE could be adding another international superstar to its roster, and this one comes with a serious legacy. After wrapping up his time with Pro Wrestling NOAH, El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr. is reportedly in discussions with WWE about signing a deal.

According to Chris Featherstone, WWE is talking with the former GHC Heavyweight Champion about making the jump. There’s no confirmation yet on how far those talks have progressed, but fans have already started connecting the dots. His social media activity has been getting attention, and speculation is growing that WWE could be his next move.

El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr. recently announced he is now a free agent, officially finishing up with NOAH, where he made a name for himself after debuting in 2019. He’s no stranger to gold, holding the GHC Heavyweight Championship for 90 days, winning the GHC Tag Team Titles twice, and putting in an impressive 352-day reign as GHC National Champion.

This report comes on the heels of Penta’s big WWE debut on Raw, where he took down Chad Gable in his first match with the company. If El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr. does sign, he’d be the latest international talent WWE has added to its growing roster.

With WWE’s continued expansion of its global presence, signing El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr. could be a major win for both sides. But will it happen? That remains to be seen.

If WWE locks in El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr., it would be another big move in their ongoing talent shake-up. With Penta already tearing it up on Raw, fans are wondering if another international star is about to step through the doors. No contract is official yet, but if WWE lands him, expect big things—and probably some major drama along the way. Stay tuned, because this one could get interesting fast.
