The saga of the Lucha Brothers and their contract situation appears to be reaching full resolution, as teased on WWE television Friday.

Penta made his WWE debut earlier this year following his AEW departure, but he did so without Rey Fenix at his side. Fenix was in the midst of a contract dispute with AEW, one that saw him sidelined from television dating back to July, though he reportedly got his release this month.

Fenix has long been expected to be WWE-bound, and that now certainly appears to be the case. WWE aired the following teaser on Smackdown Friday, hinting at another luchador making their debut.

AEW owner Tony Khan had locked Fenix down under contract despite not using him, as Fenix made his intentions to head to WWE clear through interviews. However, Khan noted publicly a change of philosophy in handling releases, and let go of several talents such as Miro and Malakai Black over the last month as they sat sidelined as well.
