Penta Finally Reacts to Rey Fenix’s WWE SmackDown Debut

WWE just got a whole lot more lucha. Penta is finally speaking out after his brother Rey Fenix made his long-awaited debut on SmackDown last Friday—and he had nothing but love, pride, and a major hint about their future in WWE.

Rey Fenix stepped into a WWE ring for the first time on the April 4 episode of SmackDown, where he picked up a hard-fought win over Nathan Frazer. The debut had fans fired up, but no one seemed prouder than his brother, Penta, who’s been making waves on RAW since arriving in January.

Speaking with ESPN Deportes on Thursday, Penta broke his silence and made it clear how much the moment meant to him. “Para mí mi hermano es el mejor luchador del mundo,” he said, which translates to “For me, my brother is the best fighter in the world.”

He didn’t stop there. The former AEW, ROH, MLW, TNA, and PWG Tag Team Champion made it clear that he’s hoping to eventually reunite with Fenix in WWE as a tag team—just like they did across promotions all over the globe as The Lucha Bros. With Penta still undefeated in singles action on RAW, and Fenix now getting started on SmackDown, the idea of a future reunion is already gaining traction among fans.

The Lucha Bros have built their name on jaw-dropping matches and titles across nearly every major promotion. Now, it looks like they’re ready to run it back—WWE style.
