Huge open challenge, another AEW star jumping ship? - 4 things Penta El Zero Miedo can do if he makes his WWE debut on this week's NXT

WWE has been on fire lately. RAW was in front of yet another sold-out crowd tonight, and Friday Night SmackDown this week will feature at least 12,000 fans in attendance, according to WrestleTix.

Part of the sports entertainment juggernaut's success is due to a murderer's row of stars. Triple H and Shawn Michaels are developing and pushing talent at an unprecedented level. In fact, the promotion has more big names than at any point in over 20 years, and there may be another joining the ranks soon: Penta El Zero Miedo.

Despite recently being seen in All Elite Wrestling, the man, also known as Pentagon Jr., is potentially jumping ship to the biggest wrestling company on Earth. While this process can often be slow, it looks to be happening sooner than anybody expected, as he will reportedly be in Orlando this week.

Orlando happens to be home to the Performance Center, where NXT will be held tonight. While Penta's time in Florida may be unrelated, he could shockingly debut on NXT. This article will look at a handful of things Penta could do if he arrives at the show later tonight.

#4. He could accept Oba Femi's open challenge

Oba Femi is one of the most impressive young stars in WWE. A product of the Performance Center, he has quickly become a dominant force, even winning the North American Championship.

The big man has an open challenge for his NXT North American Championship set for later tonight. Monday Night RAW and a post-show promo teased that it could be Otis who accepts the challenge, but this could be a deliberate misdirection by Shawn Michaels and Triple H.

The Game could have finalized a deal with Penta, and the D-Generation X members could have Otis mysteriously laid out or late to the show, only for Penta to accept the challenge instead. Otis vs. Oba could then take place on a future show.

#3. Penta El Zero Miedo could reveal he's WWE-bound in a video package

While it would be wonderful for Penta El Zero Miedo to show up on NXT tonight, there is a chance WWE will instead delay his debut as far as being in front of the fans in person goes. Instead, they may rely on a video package to hype up his arrival.

A video showing off his mask and perhaps revealing his goals on NXT would be a great way to build anticipation for his eventual debut. If fans take in his arrival, this could lead to a better rating on a future show.

If WWE wants to make this special and show what a big deal Penta could be, Triple H and Shawn Michaels may be involved in the package. They could be shown shaking hands with the Lucha star and perhaps even verbally describing why they signed him.

#2. He could challenge Ethan Page to an NXT Championship match

Ethan Page is a veteran of the pro wrestling game. He competed for a few decades before finally making it to WWE via NXT earlier this year. After just weeks in the promotion, Ego defeated Trick Williams and became NXT Champion.

All Ego has already successfully defended his NXT Championship twice against Dante Chen and Oro Mensah. Now, the WWE champion could have a new opponent.

Penta could debut by interrupting a segment with Ethan Page tonight. From there, he could challenge the reigning NXT Champion to a title match, perhaps at the next PLE or as soon as next week. This would be two former AEW stars clashing over the NXT Title, which would be quite the visual.

#1. Penta could warn Axiom and Nathan Frazer that he isn't coming alone

Nathan Frazer and Axiom, collectively known as Fraxiom, are the reigning WWE NXT Tag Team Champions. The pair has been unbeatable since dethroning The Wolfdogs of the gold several months ago.

Notably, Penta is often best known as a tag team member. He and his brother Rey Fenix are known as The Lucha Brothers. Many believe Fenix will join Penta in WWE when he's able to.

If Penta appears on NXT tonight, he may confront Nathan and Axiom. The Lucha star could warn them that he's coming for the gold and not coming alone, which would hint at the arrival of his brother.
