Ring the bell, folks! The high-flying luchador Rey Fenix is officially back and ready to dazzle the AEW crowd tonight at “Collision” from Daily’s Place in Jacksonville, Florida. After a forced hiatus due to a laundry list of injuries, Fenix has received the medical green light to return to the ring. His comeback match against The Beast Mortos promises to be a spectacle not to be missed.
Fenix, a former holder of multiple AEW championships, had to relinquish his International Champion title to Orange Cassidy last October in a shockingly brief match, revealing the toll of his nagging injuries. Six months of recovery later, AEW took to social media to herald his return, setting the stage for a thrilling encounter on tonight’s show.
The stakes are high as Fenix faces Mortos, who is debuting on “Collision” under this new moniker, though fans might recall his previous exploits as Black Taurus. The history between Fenix and Mortos stretches across various promotions, including AAA and MLW, with their last encounter at PWG’s TWENTY: Mystery Vortex in July 2023, where Fenix emerged victorious.
In addition to Fenix’s return, the event is packed with action. Bullet Club Gold will defend their Unified World Trios Championship, Toni Storm will face Anna Jay in a non-title bout, and the Grizzled Young Veterans are set to make their AEW debut. It’s an exciting night filled with comebacks, debuts, and high-octane wrestling.
