A lot of stars have left AEW to work under Triple H's creative in the WWE. Some names have seen immense success after jumping ship from the Jacksonville-based promotion to WWE. However there are certain stars who are yet to find Championship success in the Sports Entertainment Juggernaut.

Here are 3 names who left AEW to join WWE but have failed to win a Championship there yet:

#3. Lexis King

Lexis King joined WWE after spending nearly 4 years in the Jacksonville-based company in 2023. He worked in All Elite Wrestling under the name Brian Pillman Jr. as he is a second generation star, the son of the legendary Brian Pillman.

Since joining WWE, Lexis hasn't won a single Championship. He challenged for the NXT North American title twice but came up short both times. However, he actually won the NXT Heritage Cup which is technically not a championship.

#2. Rey Fenix

Fenix was one of the most athletic stars on the AEW roster during his time there. His departure from the company was filled with controversy because of the extra time that was added to his contract. He joined WWE earlier this year by debuting on SmackDown against Nathan Frazer.

He even made his WrestleMania debut against El Grande Americano just a few days after joining the promotion. Despite this, Rey has failed to win even a single title in WWE. He actually competed for the WWE Tag Team titles alongside Andrade but came up short. He recently challenged Sami Zayn for the US title on SmackDown but failed to get the win.

#1. Penta

Penta is one of the most talented Luchadors in the professional wrestling world today. He has won titles across different promotions including AEW, Ring of Honor, AAA and Lucha Underground. He joined the Stamford-based company earlier this year in January.

Since his debut, Penta has been constantly featured on Monday Night RAW. He has been chasing the Intercontinental Championship since WrestleMania but has failed to capture it everytime. He faced Dominik Mysterio and Rusev in a Triple Threat match for the title few weeks ago but came up short. It will be interesting to see when Penta will be able to win his first title in WWE.
