– More information on the Rey Fenix/AEW situation

Regarding Rey Fenix, one AEW source admitted there have long been communication issues, but hadn’t heard anything that would be construed as “inhumane,” and hadn’t spoken to Fenix about it.

They had heard that Fenix took issue with a doctor who hadn’t cleared him at one point, though context on that wasn’t exactly complete.
Also There were people within AEW that indicated last week that AEW and Tony Khan might actually give Rey Fenix an early release on his deal.
However, since then, there’s been no update, and one of the sources indicated that they believed almost any outcome sets an unfortunate precedent.
