In a major international provision, WWE has officially promoted the Mexican struggle Lucha Libre Aaa. The news was unveiled during the Wrestlemania weekend, as well as the announcement of the “World Collid” event to come scheduled for June, which will probably serve as the first major cross-initiative as part of this new partnership.
Sources close to the situation have indicated that discussions on the alignment of AAA with a new partner have circulated for several years, with conversations around improved equipment and exposed partnerships to come to come. However, Momentum would have resumed significantly after the finalization of the merger of WWE-TKO, the initiates suggesting that WWE had long-term discussions with AAA who only accelerate.
While WWE has kept the acquisition closely under the Wraps, several within the company think that the agreement could have been finalized shortly after AEW and CMLL made the headlines with their announcement of a joint event in Arena Mexico – a possible motivation for WWE to conclude the agreement.
Questions have also emerged concerning the future involvement of Alberto Del Rio, the best title champion of the AAA. WWE had already taken a firm position against work with Del Rio, despite the former world champion often claiming that the door was still open. Although Del Rio has sometimes declared that he would never return to WWE, those who are close to him now suggest that the relationship has softened and that informal talks about appearances may have taken place. The tone between both sides would be much less combative than in previous years.
Internally, everyone in AAA is not convinced of the news. Some talents would have expressed doubts as to whether the Roldan family – which has led AAA for decades – would fully turn away from power. Currently, the official details concerning the nature and the conditions of the acquisition remain rare.
