$10 says AAA.

“EXCLUSIVE: WWE has established alliances in Japan, the United Kingdom and the United States with top professional wrestling companies. Lucha Libre Online can confirm that WWE is looking to establish alliances or agreements with companies in both Puerto Rico and Mexico. The company has knocked on the door in both countries very recently with the intention of creating a partnership, similar to what they did with companies like TNA, Pro Wrestling Noah and MariGold. If it comes to fruition, it would be HUGE for the company from Puerto Rico and Mexico that WWE selects.”

            It’s pretty much everything I want from professional wrestling

            Penta might be my favorite wrestler right now, and being able to see him with Iyo and Kairi is insane

            Edit: pun not intended…

              Same for me! He’s just so good! I would love to see him have some gold again in AEW!

              That brings up a good question. If AAA ends up partnering with WWE, what does that mean for the luchas that work both AAA and AEW? Penta, Fenix, Komander, Hijo del Vikingo, etc

                I honestly don’t think we will see talent appear both on WWE and AEW any time soon, so this is a good question. The easiest outcome would be them working in WWE, but I’m not sure what the current partnership with AEW is

                  That makes sense, but I think some of those guys are dual contact guys. The Lucha Bros are definitely All Elite, for example, but I’m not sure whether or not they have AAA deals as well.

    So, Triple H never gave up on his plans to plant WWE in every country or region I see, just this time around instead of owning a bunch of NXT’s they are going to find “partners.” I would assume WWC is the one they are talking with in Puerto Rico… considering the Carlito of it all.

    Much like Forbidden Door season for AEW this could lead to some great matches… but realistically does the home talent ever lose the big ones?

      Never did, never will lol.

      I do hope and wish if they do end up with a Forbidden Door season of their own that they trade wins better, and plan wins better. No shame in having a main eventer face a high-midcarder so the main eventer can go over instead of pairing up like-for-like and having to politic their way through who gets what.
