The debut ofRey Fenixcouldn’t have gone much better, either for him orWWE.
The 34-year-old luchador signed with the promotion almost immediately after being released from his All Elite Wrestling contract.
And quite frankly, he could be in the conversation as the top high-flyer in the world.
It’s very possible, and it’s certainly an option that WWE should explore.
WWE’s Newest Luchador Has Massive Potential
World Wrestling Entertainment handled the introduction of Rey Fenix flawlessly.
For many years, he was known as Penta’s brother.
But now, he’s surpassed hishermanoin terms of excitement and expectations.
He has all the same tools in his toolbox that Mysterio has, and more.
In time, he could very well be the man to take the icon’s place.
WWE has been trying to replicateMysterio’s massive commercial successfor decades.
They have both been groundbreaking in the ring, as well.
However, they both also defy the traditional thoughts about masked wrestlers.
However, that should culminate in Fenix vs. Mysterio atWrestleMania 41.
A “mask vs. career” stipulation could add even more excitement to the bout.
WWE could tap into this tradition to create a truly unique spectacle for WrestleMania.
By this time next year, however,WWE should be positioning Rey Fenix vs. Rey Mysterio forWrestleMania 42.
Make it mask vs. career, in the tradition of Mexican wrestling.
