last night “WWE Raw” was held in Mexico City for the first time in 15 years. and the show did not disappoint as the red brand produced some of its best matches of the year thanks to some of its luchadors. Meanwhile Dragon Lee tried to defeat Chad Gable for the intercontinental title, Penta was looking to dethrone Roman Reigns to become the heavyweight champion of the world, and while neither man was able to emerge victorious, they were outmatched in both of their matches.
After Raw aired, two AEW stars immediately took to social media to praise Penta and Lee for their performances, as Mexico’s Andrade and Rush expressed their love for both wrestlers.
“@PENTAELZEROM: 👊🏼”

Moving forward, it remains to be seen if Penta will continue to be involved in the main event scene on Raw, or if he will find himself back in the aisle and chasing the Intercontinental Title again, especially since he lost to Gable at SummerSlam. Lee has been focused on becoming the Intercontinental Champion for most of this year and has made a few appearances in AAA, but has yet to find gold under his belt.
During his career, Andrade continued to return to Mexico on occasion, wrestling in CMLL and AAA during his first and second stints in AEW. As for Rush, he has mostly focused on his duties for AEW and ROH, but has competed for independent wrestling companies in Mexico over the years. The most recent Mexican event the Jacksonville-based promotion participated in, CMLL Semana Internacional CMLL vs. AEW, was the second and third night of the three-card show last August.
