WWE officials reportedly see Penta as a “long-term money maker” for the company
As seen during the September 14th 2026 edition of WWE RAW, Roman Reigns successfully defended the World Heavyweight Championship against Penta. After the event, Lucha Libre Online noted the following about Penta’s status with WWE…
“All the executives who are backstage at Raw in CDMX are extremely happy with Penta’s performance. They were all clear that he’s an excellent wrestler, but something very different was seeing him dancing in the same ring with Roman Reigns with an entire arena on his side.
WWE today has just realized they have a long-term moneymaker in Penta, and today’s match reinforces the internal thinking that, at some point, Penta will indeed be World Champion on WWE’s main roster. Today, it was made clear to the people he had to impress.
The event was excellent in ticket sales, possibly generating a record amount of money for WWE at the CDMX Arena.”
