REY FENIX INJURY OFFICIALLY CONFIRMED, WAS NOT A STINGER

Rey Fenix did not suffer a stinger, as was originally believed, while performing last night for AAW in Austin, Texas. The stinger had been suspected since Fenix told those he felt as if his arms and legs were on fire after executing a backflip into a stunner on Myron Reed during the main event of last night's AAW show. It ws believed Fenixa didn't tuck his head properly while hitting the move. After the injury, Pentagon Jr. quickly hit a package piledriver on Reed's partner AR Fox, giving the Lucha Brothers the victory and the AAW Tag Team championship.

Fenix has been diagnosed with a muscle contusion of the neck, PWInsider.com has confirmed.

Fenix has been released from the hospital but will not be competing on tonight's House of Glory event in NYC. He has been told he needs several weeks of rest. There is no word whether Fenix will appear in a non-wrestling role on the show.
