“Even after his defeat to Roman Reigns, Penta is now officially a main event star in WWE,” said Wade Barrett.
“The reaction tells you everything,” noted Joe Tessitore, responding to fans in San Antonio blowing the roof off for Penta as he made his entrance at the top of this week’s episode of Monday Night Raw. They didn’t make you work for the messaging on this one.
They beat you over the head with it.
Penta is well and truly a force to be reckoned with in WWE now.
When the man himself grabbed a microphone
and got the chance to speak, he gave props to Reigns, calling the world heavyweight champ “the better man” in Mexico City. However, he also made clear he’s not done with the Tribal Chief and he wants another opportunity to become champ.
“This is only the beginning.”
You can probably guess who interrupted at this point.
The Judgment Day.
They argued over who should be next in line for a title shot, with Dominik Mysterio scheduled for a Money in the Bank qualifying match to try to book his own ticket to the main event. Naturally, the back-and-forth resulted in fisticuffs after the Dirty one called himself the King of the Luchadores and Penta made it known only Dom’s father, Rey, could make such a claim.
The ensuing brawl saw the babyface get the upper hand.
