Lucha Libre Online recently reported that AEW star Penta El Zero Miedo’s contract is coming up between August and September 2024. The report also stated that WWE would potentially be interested in the former AEW World Tag Team Champion.

“It was only a rumor, never a request to me or my agent,” Penta El Zero Miedo said. “Meanwhile, we got in when AEW offered a contract. The rumor was made because my contract expires by August – September and when that rumor popped now, I had forgotten about that (giggles) and then my agent confirmed that.
“You know how information can be spread out on Social Media and how misinterpreted it can get. I don’t know how that information about my contract expiring leaked, and I prefer to focus on my present and my present is currently with AEW. If any company like WWE wanted to offer me something, I would need to evaluate because there is a lot of interests on the way.”
Penta El Zero Miedo: There Is Nothing Tangible Right Now
Penta El Zero went on to state that a lot of people depend on him. Regarding any changes, he said that nothing was tangible right now. He noted that if anything was, he would need to evaluate it.
“A lot of people depend on me, from my merch people, the ones that work on my restaurant, that work on the gym, the school, too may people depend on Penta, not just me,” Penta El Zero Miedo said. “There isn’t anything tangible. If there was to be anything tangible, we would need to evaluate it, check what is more convenient both financially and in-ring. Someone told me that it was like playing for Barcelona while you should play for Real Madrid.
“I can see that perspective. But I am not that young and it would be my last big contract. I have no problems with either company and I am here to work and bring my best. I understand that I have moved a lot of people with my character both in and out of wrestling. And I believe that can influence more people on either company. I am calm right now, but always aware but right now there is nothing tangible.”
Penta On WWE Interest
Penta El Zero Miedo was also asked whether he would be interest in WWE. He noted that he did not like to fantasy book, and if it happened, it happened. He stated that he was happy where he was at the moment.
“It would be a good episode in my career, but I do not like to fantasy book. If it happens, it happens. I am focused on AEW and I am happy where I am at right now. Of course there is some complaints like more focus on the projection and rivalries, like it happens with every wrestler and company.”
WrestleZone will provide more information as it becomes available.
