Are WWE stars Penta and Rey Mysterio related?

Former AEW star Penta recently debuted on RAW. In addition to his wrestling skills, the star is known for his famous mask. WWE doesn't have many masked stars, but one of the most popular is Rey Mysterio, who is known for his high-flying ability.

Since both individuals wear masks, many are asking if they are connected. Unfortunately, no, the two stars aren't related.

The former United States Champion has long been one of the top WWE stars. He wrestled as an underdog in the early years of the Stamford-based promotion. However, he slowly became a threat to other stars. Mysterio is one of the most beloved stars in the entire pro wrestling industry. Young fans love to wear his masks to different shows.

WWE also intends to do the same with recently signed star Penta. A few hours before his debut, the global sports entertainment juggernaut released his merchandise on the WWE shop. He defeated Chad Gable in a stellar contest. With both stars wearing masks, fans questioned if the duo were related. Perhaps they aren't related to each other but might be involved in tag team action.
