It was widely expected that former AEW star Penta El Zero Miedo would have his debut on the January 6 episode of WWE Raw on Netflix.
While last night’s debut episode on Netflix did see a number of surprises, including the return of The Rock, Penta didn’t make his first appearance in a WWE ring.
While it was reported ahead of the show that some WWE talents were expecting Penta to make his debut, a new report has confirmed that Penta’s debut was originally planned for Raw on Netflix.
Dave Meltzer has now shed some light on Penta’s absence from last night’s show on Wrestling Observer Radio, saying:
“He (Penta) was supposed to debut on the show originally tonight. There’s a lot of stuff that I heard, some of which has been reported, that was supposed to be on the show that ended up not being on the show.”

Over the past few weeks, WWE has teased the arrival of Penta through vignettes, with a recent one featuring his familiar lucha mask.
Another appearance that was reported dropped from last night’s WWE Raw was the return of Becky Lynch.
According to reports after the show, Lynch’s return was dropped in favor of The Undertaker making an appearance instead.
