Penta has taken the WWE Universe by storm. The wrestling world was well aware of the masked star long before he debuted on RAW, but Penta's career resurgence in WWE has opened him up to a slew of new fans. One-half of The Lucha Brothers has just opened up on why the feelings of excitement and gratitude are mutual.

Zero-Fear was familiar to fans from his runs in Lucha Underground, TNA, and elsewhere, but he and brother Rey Fenix began a significant career chapter by joining Tony Khan's new company as AEW originals in 2019. After reigns with the World Tag Team and World Trios Championships, Penta left last year amid controversy and frustration, while Fenix was granted his release in February.

Pentagon Jr. has declared World Wrestling Entertainment to be the best wrestling company in the world. Speaking to Sebastian Hackl of WWE Deutschland on the recent Road to WrestleMania European tour, Penta discussed his first three months with WWE, and how the company is from a worker standpoint. The near-18-year veteran lauded his new employer for changing his career, and life. While he didn't name All Elite Wrestling, Penta was adamant about the Stamford-based promotion being the best.

"It’s a mix of emotions and feelings. It’s very different. I think, not think, I’m sure WWE is the best company in the world, brother, they make you feel like a big superstar. They make you feel very professional. You are a professional wrestler. I love WWE. These three months was changes in my life. Every change is to improve something. This improvement was my career. When I say this is the new Penta Era. When I came here, I started a new era for Penta in my life," Penta said. [H/T - SEScoops]
