Professional wrestling storylines involving Rey Fenix

Overview

Professional wrestling storylines involving Rey Fenix have expanded across AAA and WWE. Ricky Saints has intensified his challenge for the AAA World Cruiserweight Championship, interrupting a WWE digital exclusive interview with Fenix regarding a tournament for Roman Reigns’ World Heavyweight Championship. Saints warned Fenix to focus on his title reign, noting that Fenix has recently defended the championship against Laredo Kid and JD McDonagh.

In tournament action, El Fiscal made his RAW debut on August 17, 2026, following reports that Rey Mysterio advocated for his inclusion in the World Heavyweight Championship Number One Contenders Tournament. In his first-round match, El Fiscal targeted Fenix’s knee but was ultimately defeated by a superkick and a Mexican Muscle Buster. Dragon Lee also advanced in the tournament by defeating El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr. Fenix is scheduled to face Dragon Lee in the next round. The winner of the competition is set to challenge Roman Reigns for the World Heavyweight Championship on September 14 in Mexico City.

On the NXT brand, Fenix successfully defended his AAA World Cruiserweight Championship in a high-speed match against EK Prosper. Despite Prosper gaining momentum with a Michinoku Driver and a super hurricanrana, Fenix regained control by dodging a moonsault attempt and securing the victory with a Mexican Muscle Buster.

Following weeks of verbal confrontations, Fenix has agreed to defend his AAA World Cruiserweight Championship against Ricky Saints during the September 11 episode of WWE SmackDown in Mexico City. The match will take place at Arena CDMX as part of a stacked lineup that includes CM Punk facing Sami Zayn for the Undisputed WWE Championship.
