According to the latest report, two former All Elite champions can be stopped from immediately jumping ship to WWE by the AEW President Tony Khan regardless of their contracts expiring soon. The stars have been heavily rumored to make the jump.
The two stars in question are Penta El Zero Miedo and Rey Fenix. The Lucha Brothers have been in the Jacksonville-based promotion ever since its inception back in 2019. The duo is the former AEW World Tag Team Champion as well. Meanwhile, Penta and Fenix's contracts are reportedly expiring soon.
The Lucha Bros. have been rumored to sign with the WWE after they become free agents. Meanwhile, veteran journalist, Dave Meltzer pointed out a loophole in their contracts that could allow Tony Khan to keep the duo until next year.

However, it is unclear whether AEW is actually considering the option of keeping The Lucha Bros. by using the aforementioned tactic.
