[10.0] "Idk why I just love Penta. He looks super cool, his mask is awesome, and he is a really good wrestler too. He has had so many good matches in so many different promotions. WWE needs to put a title on him sometime soon, whether it be singles or tag team. He's kind of stuck in the midcard at the moment but hopefully he can turn into more of a world title contender in 2026. CERO MIEDO"

[5.0] "I have to admit he has a certain aura (and a mask which is even cooler than his brother's), but nothing much else besides that. He cannot do flips as well as Fenix and he is one of the worst wrestlers alive in terms of in ring psychology. A spot monkey without even being the best at that. And you'd think after so many years as a tag team wrestlers he'd have figured out how to work a tag team match, but no, his tag bouts are all over the place to the point you cannot even follow the narrative, if you can call it that"

[7.0] "His strengths are undeniable: he has a unique presence, a striking mask and look, and a flashy style that makes him instantly recognizable to fans. His matches can sometimes rely heavily on spectacle and repeated spots rather than fluid storytelling, which in WWE's structured environment can hold him back."

[7.0] "His 2016 Lucha underground run was amazing, one of the best wrestlers around. His early run in AEW was amazing with his brother. I even bought a mask! Its sad what seems to have happened to him recently. I presume they are waiting for his brother or maybe its his age, or maybe his harder style of wrestling doesnt work for WWE. he still has a cool look and i hope things change soon but at 40 his last run needs to be better, Hurry up Rey."

[10.0] "Penta's success from a mexican Lucha Libre fan perspective. The "Pentagon" character originated in the late 90s, originally destined to be Octagon's archenemy. The first version of Pentagon (Andrade's uncle) was a partial success, until suffering a life threatening injury that almost forced him to retire. Then the second Pentagon existed in late 90s - early 00s, under the name "Pentagon Black", who was overall fine but had noticeably less success than its predecessor. Then "Pentagon III" was created in the mid 2000s, who practically passed without pain or glory in the mexican indies until losing to Octagon in a Mask vs Mask match without much more to add. Just like every other Pentagon, some minor versions of the character existed between the main 3, again, without making much of an impact in history. So, notice a pattern here? In reality, the PENTAGON character never meant much in the Lucha Libre scene, being limited to be a jobber character who would barely get any crowd reactions and would always stay in the shadows of Octagon. THAT, UNTIL "PENTAGON JR." MADE HIS DEBUT. A man wanting to succeed, to stand out, to reinvent himself and the character without losing its essence. Someone who had no fear, zero fear, CERO MIEDO. And, needless to say, that man totally delivered on that part. More than a decade ago, who would have thought that the PENTAGON character would be an international success some day? NOBODY, but PENTA made the impossible possible and deserves all his roses for that."

[9.0] "Penta is one of the most captivating luchadores of his generation. His charisma, intensity, and unmatched connection with the crowd--whether he's in Mexico, the U.S., or Japan--make every match feel special. His mix of brutal strikes, creative offense (like the Mexican Destroyer), and theatrical flair gives him a unique presence in both singles and tag action. Whether as Pentagon Jr., Penta El Zero Miedo, or just "Penta, " he consistently delivers. His chemistry with Rey Fenix as the Lucha Brothers was era-defining for modern tag team wrestling. He's more than just a wrestler--he's a character fans genuinely rally behind. "Cero Miedo" isn't just a catchphrase--it's a vibe"
Rassle Fan wrote on 12.05.2025:
[7.0] "Penta seemed to be destined for bigger things a few years ago but he's stalled. As good as he can be, he's been doing the exact same thing for well over a decade. In WWE he's just another mask in the crowd and jobbing to lesser quality talent on B level PLEs."

He isn't perfect, but definitely has the potential to make a name for himself."

[7.0] "Ok ok first off I didn't even realize how old Penta is, and honestly, it's wild because the dude still moves like he's in his prime. His in-ring skills, intensity, and charisma are on another level. Whether he's flying around the ring or delivering those devastating moves, Penta is a legend in the making, and he's showing no signs of slowing down. Straight up, I thought he was younger just based on how he performs. Mad respect for this guy he's a gem in the business! We need more"

[10.0] "Been following him since around late 2023 and gone back to watch his best matches. His selling is unbelievably convincing. His in-ring work is obviously spectacular and is honestly my favorite luchador of all time. His matches with the Elite and Young Bucks in AEW with his brothers were simply captivating. His intergender stuff in Lucha Underground was also awesome to watch with him wrestling great matches against Chelsea Green and pulling a TRIPLE duty on a show wrestling Kairi Sane, IYO SKY, and MAYU IWATANI? His stamina is excellent. His WWE debut against Chad Gable was awesome to watch and to see that WWE really hasn't nerfed him that much as he's still pulling out Canadian Destroyers and Drivers. His promo work gets the crowd unbelievably hot and his English skills have considerably improved from years past."

[10.0] "AAA, AEW, and LU knew what they had when he was there. He also made huge noise in TNA with his real-life brother Rey Fenix. Already a bonafide legend in Mexico and the U.S. and still having years left in the tank makes Penta a surefire WON hall of Famer at some point. He has held almost as many titles as Adam Copeland and more than who many people consider to be the best. As a long-time fan, I've enjoyed seeing him be as evil as possible like when he kayfabe broke the arm of his opponents in Lucha Underground and even lured Vampiro out of retirement for 1 last brutal and bloody match. Now, he'll be in WWE. I really hope WWE use him properly. Sin Cara, Alberto el Patron, and Hunico just couldn't match the charisma of their luchador legend Rey Mysterio. Now, we can find out if Penta will be WWE's Penta Dark or Penta Job"

Penta is super cool and has so much swagger to him and his look is great its very unique and sick and he's also Super charismatic. I Love Penta so much and will always be one of my favorites."

[7.0] "Penta is one of my favorite wrestlers to watch and has been since his Lucha Underground days. He has an amazing look, great character work, and an amazing moveset. HAVING SAID THAT I feel like a lot of his most recent work has been more one note and repetitive. I'm not even solely talking about the constant Cero Miedo stuff with the taunting and posing being a bit too much for me, but it feels like his last few matches in AEW just blended together and were him hitting the same moves and spots in the same order. That's the only reason I have ranked him a bit lower than I would have, as personally I love his career but wish he would evolve or change. Hopefully when he finally arrives in WWE, he'll be able to do that."

[9.0] "Penta has always been one of my favorites. I watched a match of his in Lucha Underground vs Vampiro and I was hooked ever since. He is a proven commodity and I cant wait to see him in WWE. He should be able to get 8-10 rated matches even without the violence he usually presents in his AEW and AAA matches."
Semicorrect wrote on 05.08.2024:
"Pentagon Jr (or Dark, or 0M, or whatever you want to call him) has been one of my favorites, although he's been in very different roles over the years. In my view he was best in Lucha Underground, where he got to be as violent as he could reasonably be and his armbreaker was put over as more dangerous than it was anywhere else, but no matter where he's been he is a reliable utility guy. He leans a bit heavy on schtick, and he's not as athletic as his brother, but he's a consistent performer. He'll never be the top guy, but he's great in the midcard."

[8.0] "Penta is crazy cool in the ring and I really enjoy watching his matches, however, he can't get booked to win a big match to save his life. I love watching his matches and he delivers almost every time, but when it comes to big matches, he loses and gets put right back to the lower-mid card. I personally think he should be in a mid-card title division where he can continue to win and be on my TV screen. Overall great wrestler but needs to be booked better."

[10.0] "Used to be my favorite wrestler as Pentagon Dark, he is the embodiment of a rare instance of phenomenal character work from a luchador. With one of the best moveset ever, it hides everything away from his standard wrestling ability and really captured me at his peak. Such intense and unspoken charisma, seeing lost in times now that he is a midcard act and a tag team partner of what he admits himself to be a much more talented brother. Personally, he could of been so much more, a main event, the best rudo of this era, but it is what it is. still likes him, even if now i understand how formulaic his matches are."

[8.0] "I say 8 but only because Fenix is the 9. I wish I could comment a bunch on his Mexican history but I can't. The first I remember him was from Lucha Underground and from there he was all over the American scene. I remember how excited I was for his match at All In with Omega but I thought it fell short. AEW has made this man an entirely new creature though. With Fenix he has become one of my favorite tag teams and he's put on great matches back and forth. His cagematch with the Young Bucks is one of the best matches in AEW history. First of all Penta has the look and the charisma. He legitimately looks scary - like if you were a kid he would intimidate the hell out of you. All his mannerisms and movement are awesome. He used to spam his taunt non stop but he has gotten much better when it comes to TV time. He has still a good future to come."

[9.0] "Capable of great technical work, impressive high flying work, and well-rounded psychological work, Penta is the platonic ideal of a modern luvhador, even though his booking may not always reflect that."

[9.0] "My first time seeing Penta was in a GIF on wrestling Twitter, where he absolutely killed another worker with a Package Piledriver on the apron on the indies in 2017. Then, I found Lucha Underground, and he was my guy for a while shortly after. His deathmatch with Vampiro genuinely is one of my hidden gem matches that I feel like not a lot of people talk about, considering that Vampiro was already so limited back then. Penta is all about mystique, and barring his overuse of taunt spamming over the past couple of years in AEW (look even those of us who love him, can't and shouldn't deny it), he puts on absolute bangers when given time. Great brawling Lucha, great tag worker with his brother, and I've always been a big fan of his look."
Captain Memo wrote on 05.02.2024:
[10.0] "One of the most effortlessly cool wrestlers today. I think a lot of people first saw him on Lucha Underground, which I think as far as American exposure goes was his best work. Him and his brother haven't really been used as well as I'd like them to be in AEW but they still get to show how unique they are anytime they're on TV."
TheSuperstar wrote on 17.11.2023:
[7.0] "Based more of his aew work hes good, knows how to work the crowd, and is charismatic as hell. My major gripes are too many poses during the match and how he goes from selling to no-selling moves of opponents. I can deal with the poses but when theres an opponent working over a body part and he doesnt react thats pretty bad."

[9.0] "I don't think there are many guys as versatile at such a high level has him. Yes, he can end up in spot heavy wrestle crap in some matches. But if you want a guy who can bring the goods in tag, trios, hardcore, lucha, brawling, technical or anything else, then Penta can do it. His work in Lucha Underground was just phenomenal and I actually think breaking up the Lucha Bros would help better showcase them (as much as I love them). Great look, crazy charisma even behind a mask and with little English. Also delivers the best sling blades in the world from any man not called Finn Balor."

[6.0] "Did some outstanding work in the past as the dark, brooding character incorporating a lot of brawling and ground work into his style. In recent years (ie. AEW) he's descended into co-operative sequential wrestling mode and that's just not for me. He's much better when he attempts to tell a story."

[9.0] "Penta is absolutely top notch. His work in AEW has been otherworldly good at times. He clearly demonstrates that you can be charismatic as fuck without being able to cut a promo. Most of all, he's just cool. The only complaint I have is that he hasn't been given enough of an opportunity in the main event scene as a singles guy."
WhatIsLooveee wrote on 12.01.2023:
[9.0] "Penta El Zero Miedo was initially not the most remarkable luchador, who performed mainly in AAA and did not flash in the first roles. In this status, he moved to the Lucha Underground, and the transformation of the old Penta into the Pentagon Dark may have been the best work on the character in the company. Now he is not progressing much as a character and all he does is show high-fly moves, mainly participating in 2-on-2 and 3-on-3 tag team matches, and makes his "Zero Miedo" taunt. He is a good wrestler from the point of view of in-ring performance, in addition, he is especially good at helping veterans in the ring, which proved his participation in the Ruleta de la Muerte tournament, in which his every match against the stars of the past came out at least good. Now Pentagon and his brother are considered one of the best tag teams on the American stage, and although he impresses mainly with doing amazing moves, I still consider him a very gifted performer, not least because of his tremendous success in the temple of Dario Cueto."

[10.0] "While his brother Rey Fenix is a more exciting and innovative luchador - Penta is 1 of the best Jack-Of-All-Trades wrestlers to come out of Mexico. He can more or less work and adapt to any wrestling style. He can fly, he can do submissions, he's very powerful for 200lbs, he can hit hard with his strikes, he's technical, he can do death matches, he can trash-talk like a Mexican Stone Cold...and more importantly for him, he can sell merchandise like hot cakes due to a good look, fun character and memorable catchphrase that can be utilised in the real world and even inspire children."
