Rey Fenix Targets Three Dream Matches After WWE Debut

STAMFORD, Conn. — Rey Fenix, the former AEW star, has set his sights on three dream matches now that he has debuted in WWE. Following his appearance on WWE SmackDown, which has kept him undefeated in traditional matches, Fenix is eager to face some of the wrestling industry’s biggest names.

In a recent interview, Fenix expressed his desire to battle his brother, Penta, in a WWE ring. He also named Rey Mysterio and Randy Orton as two other opponents he hopes to compete against. “I can say three matches I want to happen in WWE first, I want to face my brother [Penta], right? I want to face my brother. Second, of course, Rey Mysterio, and my third one, I’m gonna say Randy Orton,” Fenix stated.

Fenix has a potential path to realize his wish to face Orton, who has announced an open challenge for WrestleMania 41 on Sunday. This opportunity could allow Fenix to step into the ring with one of WWE’s all-time greats. “My dream match about mask vs. mask is with Rey Fenix. This is my dream match: Penta vs. Rey Fenix, mask vs. mask. I don’t know when. Maybe it only happens in my mind… It’s possible, I don’t know,” he added.

Since joining WWE, Fenix has made a significant impact, especially as his brother Penta remains active on Raw. The two have shared a storied history as tag team partners, and their individual journeys in wrestling have been garnering attention. James, a wrestling analyst, commented on their dynamic, noting, “The prospect of a Fenix versus Penta match is something fans have longed to see, and WWE has the platform to make it happen.”

Fenix’s debut in WWE marks a pivotal moment in his career after a controversial stint with AEW. Fans widely appreciated his in-ring skills and storytelling, which has translated well into WWE’s programming. However, it is important to note that Mysterio may not be available to face Fenix at WrestleMania due to an injury that has sidelined him. This uncertainty adds an interesting layer to Fenix’s aspirations.

As WrestleMania 41 approaches, the excitement builds not only for Fenix but for WWE as a whole. With new talent on the rise and established veterans continuing to compete, the event promises to deliver unexpected matchups and memorable moments. The wrestling world eagerly anticipates how Fenix will navigate his dream match aspirations amidst the larger WrestleMania theme.
