6 Ups & 2 Downs From AEW Rampage (Oct 22)

Downs...

2. Penta Looks Stupid

Get this: Alex Abrahantes interrupted the start of Penta's promo with Tony Schiavone to point out two masked guys in the front row. Suddenly, Penta leapt out of the ring and ripped the masks off those goons to reveal that...they weren't FTR. Shocking, right?

Not really - those dudes looked nothing like Cash and Dax.

Also, pro wrestling fans wear masks to live events all the time, so why did Penta fall for this? AEW made Abrahantes look like a total tit for pointing them out in the first place, and one of their Tag-Team Champs came across as a moron for buying into it.

FTR and Tully Blanchard then attacked from behind as commentary queried why Penta and Alex had fallen into a trap. Quite. You'd think they'd be on alert, especially when Rey Fenix was out injured and FTR had deployed the mask trick one week prior.
