Mexico’s AAA promotion is setting up some big interpromotional matches.

Andrade El Idolo showed up during their Rey De Reyes show over the weekend. In a prerecorded video, he challenged Kenny Omega to defend the AAA Mega Championship against him...at TripleMania. A date for that show has not been announced.

Also at Rey De Reyes, Impact Knockouts Champion Deonna Purrazzo appeared in person...and she challenged AAA’s new women’s champ Faby Apache to a “winner takes all” Title vs. Title Match...also at TripleMania.

Apache had just won the vacant title in a multi-woman match. A surprise entrant was a recast version of Sexy Star - now portrayed by Hija de Gatubela.

Laredo Kid won the Rey De Reyes itself. Black Taurus won the vacant AAA Latin American Championship. And we saw the debut of a new stable called La Empresa - Puma King, Diamante Azul and Sam Adonis - posing as invaders from rival promotion, CMLL.
