Penta Details Why He Started Using “Cero Miedo”

Penta shared the origins of his Cero Miedo catchphrase during an appearance on Chris Van Vliet’s Insight show.

The truth is, I love the Corridos. Mexican music is The Corridos. Los Buitres De Culiacan Sinaloa is the name of the band. In a lot of songs, they say, ‘Cero Miedo.’ ‘Cero miedo mi compa,’ which in English is ‘No fear, my friend.’ I hear ‘Cero Miedo,’ and I liked it. My first interview in AAA, I did a promo, ‘How are things?’ ‘Cero miedo.’ My reaction was ‘Cero miedo.’ After that, everyone (kept saying) ‘Cero miedo.’ I improved ‘cero miedo’ with the hands, the t-shirts, and everything. It came from the Corridos in Mexico

During the conversation, Penta confirmed he experiences fears despite using the fearless catchphrase.

A separate portion of the interview covered discussions about Rey Fenix’s potential AEW involvement, which was addressed in a different conversation segment.
