Rey Fenix To Debut On SmackDown Next Week

There have been vignettes over the last few weeks on Friday Night SmackDown teasing the impending arrival and debut of Rey Fenix to WWE, who was revealed to have signed with WWE after parting ways with AEW earlier this year. 

Fans won’t have to wait too much longer to see the former AEW International Champion on a WWE screen, as the promotion have officially announced that his debut will take place on next week’s episode of SmackDown when the company returns to the States after a recent European tour on the Road To WrestleMania. The show will emanate from the Allstate Arena in Chicago, Illinois. 

It had previously been reported that Fenix was expected to reunite with brother and tag team partner Penta, who is currently competing on the RAW brand in the Intercontinental Title picture, but it seems as though these plans have changed, with the Lucha Brothers set to compete on separate brands in WWE for the time being. Given the timing of his arrival, it remains to be seen if Fenix will factor into the WrestleMania 41 card.
