WWE Rumors: WWE Reportedly Makes Overtures To Two Lucha Underground Stars

There doesn’t seem to be any slowing the WWE down when it comes to either reaching out to or signing more talent from the independent scene. With so much recent talk that the company could be bringing in Matt Riddle, recently it was reported that they had renewed interest in former Lucha Underground star Angelico, who is currently a free agent (find that story here). Reportedly, WWE also has their eyes on two more Lucha Underground talents.

According to The Wrestling Observer Newsletter, WWE not only has interest in Pentagon Jr. and Rey Fenix, but has already made overtures to the real-life brothers. However, at this time it’s being said that they both have three seasons remaining on their Lucha Underground contracts. Previously, the two have worked for IMPACT Wrestling and Pentagon was even the IMPACT World Champion, but of course the two companies have a working relationship.

Pentagon is a 33-year old, 11-year veteran who in addition to working for LU and IMPACT, has also competed for AAA, CMLL, The Crash, Pro Wrestling Guerrilla and MLW. Fenix is 27-years old and also an 11-year pro, also competing for CMLL, AAA, Pro Wrestling NOAH, MLW and PWG. Currently, Pentagon and Fenix are the MLW World Tag Team Champions, as well as the PWG World Tag Team Champions.
