AEW Tag Team Champion Rey Fenix is not injured and will still be participating in this Saturday’s Triplemania Regia, according to Dave Meltzer.
On Wednesday’s Dynamite, Fenix was not on the show and in storyline, his absence was explained as injury-related. Meltzer said the real reason was due to “travel difficulties” so he was not at the Duluth, Georgia, show.
As a result, the scheduled two-out-of-three falls Tag Team title match between Fenix and Penta El Zero M vs. FTR for Friday’s Rampage didn’t take place as planned. Instead, it was Penta and PAC against FTR in a traditional tag match.
However, Meltzer said that Penta and Fenix will compete as scheduled for Saturday’s Triplemania Regia as they challenge FTR for the AAA Tag Team titles.
Saturday’s pay-per-view in Monterrey, Mexico, will be headlined by a five-way for the vacant AAA Mega Championship between Hijo del Vikingo, Samuray del Sol, Jay Lethal, Bandido and Bobby Fish.
