A former World Tag Team and World Trios Champion has left AEW.

After months of uncertainty, it was reported on December 1st that Penta El Zero Miedo was now a free agent. The star, and his brother and tag team partner Rey Fenix, have been heavily linked with a move to WWE, but the path to the sports entertainment giant has been anything but straightforward.

Neither Penta nor Fenix have wrestled for AEW since July, notably, just before the pair reportedly made it clear they wanted to leave.

Following the reported expiry of his contract, Penta has now been removed from the company roster page on AEW.com confirming his departure. Fenix is still listed.

Rey Fenix Addresses AEW Future

Following the extensive speculation around his future, Rey Fenix hit back at those starting the rumours, telling fans to be patient. The star stated that “professionalism is first and foremost” before adding there are things that should “always be respected.”

The comments came after it was reported Tony Khan had no plans to use Fenix despite adding time to his contract. His current deal runs well into 2025.

The Lucha Brothers have been with AEW since February 2019. During their time with the company, the pair won the World Tag Team Titles, and the World Trios Titles alongside PAC. Fenix also claimed the International Title in September 2023.
