WWE surely has a lot of surprises up its sleeve for the debut episode of Raw on Netflix. These could include shocking match results, title changes, returns, NXT call-ups, and even debuts. Pentagon Jr. has long been rumored to have signed with WWE, and it appears that fans will not have to wait much longer to catch him on their screens.
The latest episode of Raw featured another ambiguous vignette, potentially teasing the Luchador’s debut. The clip featured a ninja star that slowly turned into a face with sharp teeth and menacing eyes. This face highly resembled the design of Penta’s iconic mask that fans have seen him wear over the years.
Vignettes aired over the past few weeks have featured similar symbols teasing the debut of the 39-year-old. The first clip showed a zero being struck through with a line. This was likely a reference to his catchphrase, Cero Miedo, meaning zero fear. The following week, a vignette showed an image of a pentagram, referring to his name. These videos then faded into the Raw on Netflix logo.

Fans are already excited at the prospect of Penta coming to WWE. He could potentially be the company’s first Luchador heel and put on banger matches against nearly anyone on the roster. His character work is phenomenal, and he can also tell highly compelling stories alongside his in-ring work. In fact, Chelsea Green has already teased a rematch with him.
When will Rey Fenix join Pentagon Jr. in WWE?
While Pentagon Jr. has been a massive singles superstar in various promotions, he and his younger brother, Rey Fenix, have also been tag champs all over the world. The Lucha Brothers were likely supposed to debut together in WWE. However, Tony Khan added injury time to the former International Champion’s contract, and it appears that he will have to wait for a little while longer.
There is no specific information about when Fenix’s contract with AEW will expire. However, a report by Fightful claims that he will be bound to AEW “well into 2025.” They also reported that Khan and his company deliberately added this extra injury time after the Lucha Bros were bragging about their talks with WWE in the AEW locker room. Fenix has also blamed his employer for not giving him proper medical attention when he needed it.
This means that fans will see Penta as a singles superstar for most of 2025 and maybe even for the entire year. Fenix could show up when his brother is outnumbered in a feud and needs help. Alternatively, if the AAA is a heel, his brother could make a surprise appearance next year to help him cheat and win.
