Penta El Zero Miedo made an excellent WWE debut last week on Monday Night RAW. The masked luchador continued his winning streak on the red brand show this week defeating Pete Dunne.
But how long will the former AEW star keep winning? This article is about four wrestlers who can potentially make Penta feel his first defeat in the company.
#4. Chad Gable has to settle scores with Penta
Penta secured his debut win against Chad Gable. The American Made leader put up a good fight and even caught his opponent in his Ankle Lock submission move. However, the masked luchador escaped the hold and managed to win the match.
This week, the Olympian spoke to Cathy Kelley in a backstage interview and admitted that he has had issues with masked wrestlers such as Penta, Rey Mysterio and Dragon Lee. However, he said he would stop them. He also specifically contacted Dominic Mysterio to learn some secrets about lucha libre wrestling.
With some new anti-lucha strategies up his sleeve, Chad Gable could potentially end Penta’s winning streak the next time he faces him.
#3. Dominic Mysterio could also use the secrets he gave Gable
Dominic Mysterio he is currently working on his singles career and trying to build momentum in the ring. Although The Judgment Day member is a two-time NXT North American Champion, he has not had title success on the main roster. Recently, however, he’s been taking on big opponents like Damian Priest and Gunther, but he still hasn’t won his own matches.
Instead of facing current or former heavyweight champions of the world, he could be facing El Zero Mieda. Moreover, since he already shared some lucha libre wrestling secrets with Chad Gable, he could use those same tricks to win.
#2. Logan Paul needs to make an impact on RAW
Logan Paul recently moved from SmackDown to RAW and noted that he will show everyone that he is the greatest. However, the former United States Champion needs to build momentum, especially since he hasn’t appeared in a single match since his hometown loss in Cleveland, Ohio at SummerSlam 2024 in August against LA Knight.
Therefore, a win against a popular name like Penta would definitely help The Maverick climb the rankings in the red brand. Moreover, Paul defeated Rey Mysterio and began his reign as the United States Champion. Therefore, he has a great chance to beat another luchador.
#1. Bron Breakker could get a taste of a worthy opponent
Bron Breaker almost constantly nags Adam Pearce about not giving him suitable opponents. The two-time and current Intercontinental Champion feels that the RAW General Manager is intentionally taking away the shine and spotlight from him. But he may not have the same complaints if he faces Pento.
The masked wrestler could be the 27-year-old’s toughest opponent since Jey Uso and Sami Zayn. Moreover, defeating El Zero Miedo would be a huge highlight in the career of the Steiner dynasty superstar. So Breaker could be the one to end the former AEW star’s winning streak.
It would be interesting to see which of these stars manages to defeat the newest WWE RAW recruit.
