An update on Fenix after his frightening situation.
Friday night was an eventful night for the Lucha Brothers as they were featured in the main event of this week's episode of IMPACT Wrestling and defeated LAX to become the new IMPACT World Tag Team Champions. On the same night while IMPACT was airing, Pentagon Jr. and Fenix were in present in Austin, Texas for AAW's 'Lucha City Limits' show and they bested AR Fox and Myron Reed for the AAW Tag Team Championships.
Rey Fenix was hurt at the ending of the match when he executed a cutter and did not get back up. The match immediately was cut short and paramedics were called and stretchered Fenix out.

We thank you all for your concern and for making #LUCHACITY such wonderful time!
Fenix and Pentagon Jr. have had a busy February and on top of capturing and losing titles, they put the Young Bucks on notice at the All Elite Wrestling ticket announcement party when they laid waste to the AEW co-Executive Vice Presidents.
