Rey Fenix Pulled From Casino Ladder Match At AEW Double Or Nothing
More bad news on the injury front...
Rey Fenix has been removed from the Casino Ladder Match at AEW Double or Nothing on Saturday, due to injury. He will be replaced in the match by Joey Janela.
AEW tweeted, "@ReyFenixMx is out of the #CasinoLadderMatch due to injury. Fenix isn’t expected to miss significant time. @JANELABABY is now entered in the Casino Ladder Match. 1 mystery wrestler is still TBA."
