Penta to Face Los Perros Del Mal’s Bronco Nima in High-Stakes Match on 8/22 AAA Show

Former WWE Intercontinental Champion Penta is set for a high-stakes match on next week’s episode of Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide.

On tonight’s episode, Penta showed up to send a message to WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns. However, Cero Miedo was interrupted by Los Perros del Mal.

The group embraced him, and in return, Penta hugged everyone except Karmen Petrovic and Bronco Nima.

Daga questioned Penta’s claim about not needing a family should he go on to face Roman Reigns for the World Heavyweight Championship in Mexico City on September 14. Daga claimed that Penta won’t be able to beat Roman if he heads to the match without his family.

After Los Perros Mal offered the former member of the group a spot, Penta said he would consider the offer. In response, Daga told the WWE Superstar that he must respond to the offer by the end of the night.

Toward the end of the show, Los Perros del Mal entered Penta’s locker room. The former IC Champion said that while he respects Daga, Berto, and Angel, he can’t say the same about “dead weights” like Karmen and Nima.

This prompted Bronco Nima to challenge Penta to a one-on-one match on next week’s episode, with the stipulation being that if the RAW Superstar loses the bout, he’ll have to return to Los Perros del Mal.
