Impact Wrestling: Everyone In Tag Match Has Top Star Potential

Fenix

If I had to come up with a list of the ten most naturally gifted wrestlers in the world, Rey Fenix’s name would most likely come up. And if I had to make a list of the biggest breakout stars in wrestling this year, Fenix’s name would definitely arise.

It’s appropriate that Fenix’s slide comes after Brian Cage’s, because the match he and Cage put together to open Impact’s “ReDefined” special was one of the best matches I’ve seen in Impact this year. Heck, it was one of the best TV matches in any promotion this year, and I think it’ll go down as an underrated gem.

Fenix and Cage clearly stole the show with an electrifying performance, and it was yet another marquee match for Fenix in 2018. He previously tore it up at Redemption with Aries and Pentagon, and he definitely showed up at Slammiversary in a Four-Way match that was won by Johnny Impact.

The current AAA Mega Champion and MLW World Tag Team Champion, Fenix has shined in some of professional wrestling’s best promotions this year. He is just 27, yet he’s already on track to becoming a star on an international stage and somebody Impact could feature heavily if they can keep working with him over the next few years.

Fenix isn’t the polished product as a character, nor is he on Pentagon’s or Cage’s level, but if you want a sleeper who starred at “All In” and several other major shows this year, then look no further than the man who possesses wrestling’s smoothest cutters.

I’m starting to wonder if it’s not a coincidence that all three of these men will be teaming up to take on oVe, Impact’s second-biggest heel stable, at the promotion’s biggest show of the year…
