A report claimed that Penta's co-workers were unhappy with his WWE debut segment taking more time than it should have on Raw on Netflix. Fans dismissed the report by pointing out WWE Raw's unlimited time constraint in the Netflix Era. The show ended 30 minutes before it usually does and the fans felt it should have been used.
Penta had a thunderous debut on WWE Raw on Netflix where his match against Chad Gable was loved by the fans. His debut lived up to the expectations as the fans were invested in him. However, a report from PWInsider claimed that his screen presence lasted a bit longer than it should have.
The report claimed that some of the talents on the roster were not thrilled about it as they could not get their screen time. "There were some talents obviously not thrilled about that, as you can imagine," claimed the report. Fans started to give their opinion on the report and many dismissed it for a lack of relevance.
