Oh no, not again! Just when fans thought it was safe to cheer without crossing their fingers, Rey Fenix, AEW’s high-flying daredevil, finds himself grounded yet again. After a dramatic return to “AEW Collision,” where he soared higher than stocks during a tech bubble, our lucha libre hero seems to have hit turbulence.
The wrestling world was buzzing when Fenix defeated The Beast Mortos, fresh off his injury hiatus. Tony Khan, AEW’s head honcho, couldn’t hide his excitement, practically doing cartwheels as he announced Fenix’s clearance. But hold onto your masks, folks, because the plot thickens. Just when Fenix was set to dazzle at the House of Glory’s Cinco de Mayo event, tragedy struck. His brother, Penta El Zero Miedo, had to break the heartbreaking news: Rey wasn’t cleared to compete. The audience’s hearts sank faster than a smartphone’s battery life at a music festival.
Now, Fenix is on the injury list once more, details as murky as a politician’s promises. Remember folks, this isn’t just any injury; it’s a sequel to the “worst injury” of his career, a nasty re-aggravation during a clash with Jon Moxley that left fans and Fenix alike in anguish. Despite this setback, Fenix is still on the bill for the upcoming “Hit The Lights” event. But will he make it, or will he be a no-show, leaving fans hanging like a cliffhanger in a season finale?
Keep those candles lit and those fingers crossed. Rey Fenix’s saga of soar, crash, recover might just need another comeback chapter. And if history teaches us anything, it’s that you can’t keep a good luchador down for long. Stay tuned, because this wrestling rollercoaster is nowhere near the final stop!
