Rey Fenix’s time in AEW has come to an end and it seems WWE is already teasing his arrival.

WWE proved they’d waste no time with ex-AEW stars after Ricky Saints was snapped up just days after his release from Tony Khan’s company. The former Ricky Starks was released after a long period of absence alongside Miro and Malakai Black.

Questions remained over the status of Rey Fenix at that time as the former AEW Tag Team Champion made no secret that he wanted out of his deal so he could join his brother Penta in WWE. Fenix’s contract was extended by AEW due to injuries but now Tony Khan has cut his losses and Rey Fenix is no longer on the AEW roster.

And his WWE arrival now seems imminent.

Rey Fenix In WWE SmackDown Vignette?

On the March 14 edition of SmackDown, a vignette aired of a masked luchador training in the ring and walking the ropes with their mystery concealed by an orange light. Many have speculated that the man at the centre of the vignette is Rey Fenix.

If it is Fenix, then the fact that the vignette aired on SmackDown raises its own question. Fenix’s brother Penta has already established himself as part of the Raw brand so WWE fans might have to wait a while if they want to see a Lucha Brothers reunion in the company.
