AAA News: Juventud Guerrera Leads MAD Invasion, Konnan Is Returning
Juventud Guerrera, along with MAD stablemates Kevin Cross and Teddy Hart, invaded AAA in Mexico City on Friday night. They attacked AAA Mega Champion Dr. Wagner Jr and Hernandez (who had battled for the championship), El Hijo de Dr Wagner Jr, and Vampiro ( a mix of rudos and technicos) during a post-match ceremony after the championship match (where Wagner retained).
The three showed up as masked men, and unmasked after the attack to reveal their identities.
Juventud Guerrera cut a promo after the attack, holding Wagner’s Mega Championship, proclaiming that he was coming for the title.
Earlier this year, the MAD faction attacked Alberto Del Rio, Ultimo Dragon and others in Promociones MDA (a Mexican independent promotion based on Monterey). That incarnation of MAD included Juventud, Cross, Sexy Dulce (also known as Sexy Star), El Zorro, and Konnan.
AAA has also teased a return for Konnan on social media:
— Lucha Libre AAA (@luchalibreaaa) April 21, 2018
Konnan was not mentioned during the segment, but his teased return and prior association with MAD has many speculating about Vampiro’s status with AAA, given their history. Konnan, of course, is closely tied to The Crash Lucha Libre, which runs out of Tijuana. Reports are that many within The Crash were fully aware of Konnan’s likely return to AAA.
Best known to American fans for his run in the NWO, and his role on Lucha Underground, Konnan is a legend in Mexico. He’s held numerous championships, along with office positions in multiple promotions. He has never held the AAA Mega Championship, which was established in 2007.
Thoughts:
This is a big move for AAA, if Konnan is indeed coming back (and it’s safe to assume he is). Kevin “Killer” Cross is a name many readers might not be familiar with. He has received WWE tryouts in the past, and has worked with AAA in the past. He trained out of FSW in Las Vegas, and despite only being a professional for three years, is viewed as a star to watch for.

WWE Has Yet to Reach Initial Goal After AAA Acquisition, Dave Meltzer Reports
On an episode of Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer said WWE has not yet achieved the objectives it set following last year’s acquisition of Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide. Meltzer indicated that the integration and strategic milestones tied to the purchase remain a work in progress.
His comments add to industry scrutiny over the timeline and overall impact of WWE’s expansion into the Mexican market, where AAA’s roster and brand are viewed as significant assets. WWE has not publicly confirmed whether it has revised its expectations or adjusted its plan for leveraging AAA.

WWE/TKO Reportedly Seeking Major Pay Cuts for Talent
Two reports indicate WWE and its new parent company TKO have been asking contracted talent to accept pay reductions, with one rumor suggesting cuts could be as high as 50 percent. The outreach is said to affect performers across multiple tiers as the company reviews payroll and operational expenses.
If accurate, the proposed cuts could reshape contract talks and talent retention amid TKO’s restructuring, raising questions about morale and long-term roster depth. WWE has not issued a public confirmation as discussions are reportedly ongoing.
