On a recent edition of his “Hall of Fame” podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Booker T discussed WWE potentially signing The Lucha Brothers (Rey Fenix & Penta El Zero Miedo).
As we previously reported here on eWn, The Lucha Brothers are expected to leave AEW when their contracts expire.
Penta’s AEW contract expires between August and September while Fenix’s contract expires later this year.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On The Lucha Bros having interest from WWE: “I love it, man. Bring the Lucha Brothers, you know, put them on a main roster. Even let them go through NXT and do some stuff. Those guys are extraordinary talents, give them a chance. That’s what’s so cool about wrestling right now, especially with WWE working with TNA, working with those guys. Because it’s really never about the company. It’s about the guys. It’s about the guys having a chance to have an ultimate thrill ride… I was talking about, ‘Man, there’s no way if you’re a young worker in this business. I don’t care if you’re working with AEW or working with independents, you want to be a part of that. You want to have that experience at least one time in your life, if you saw it. Because it was something that every young wrestler dreams of.”
On Rey Fenix: “Rey Fenix, man. He is the heir apparent to Rey Mysterio, Jr. He really is that good.”
