WWE dropped a cryptic teaser during the December 16 episode of RAW, and fans are convinced it points to the imminent arrival of Penta. The brief vignette featured a bold zero with a line through it before transitioning into the RAW on Netflix logo, immediately sparking online speculation.
Social media exploded with theories, with many believing this mysterious promo teases Penta’s RAW debut when the show premieres on Netflix on January 6. One fan tweeted, “That zero symbol is classic Penta. WWE is really about to pull off the biggest surprise of the year.” Another added, “No way WWE teases something like that and it’s NOT Penta. It’s too perfect.”
The timing couldn’t be more fitting. Penta was quietly removed from AEW’s roster after his contract expired, leaving him a free agent with plenty of buzz around his next move. Meanwhile, his brother Fenix remains under contract with AEW, as Tony Khan reportedly froze his deal due to injury-related absences.
Penta has already made waves on the independent scene and AAA since leaving AEW, but WWE could be the next big stop in his career. If this cryptic vignette is indeed for Penta, it sets the stage for a massive debut as WWE RAW kicks off its new era on Netflix.
Adding to the evening’s drama, Drew McIntyre delivered an intense promo about being overlooked and underappreciated. “I’ve given so much to this business, and people just forgot,” Drew declared, his frustration boiling over. He called out CM Punk and Roman Reigns while ripping into fans for cheering his rivals, promising that from now on, he’ll take what he deserves.
