WWE and AAA Worlds Collide is set to be the first major joint promotional live event since WWE’s acquisition of the Mexican wrestling promotion, AAA. The event will be headlined by El Hijo Del Baikinko defending the AAA Mega Championship against Chad Gable. In addition to the announced matches, WWE has teased some exciting surprises with the return of several notable stars throughout the event.
Among the anticipated returns is Rey Mysterio, who had to sit out Wrestlemania 41 due to a serious groin injury that required surgery. Originally slated to face El Grande Americano at Wrestlemania, Mysterio was replaced by Rey Phoenix. However, promotional materials for WWE & AAA Worlds Collide prominently feature Mysterio, signaling his involvement in upcoming premium live events. Even if he is unable to compete physically, Mysterio is expected to have a significant presence on television.
Fan Take: This announcement is a huge deal for WWE fans as it signals the return of a beloved icon, Rey Mysterio, who has endured injury setbacks. His involvement, along with the blending of WWE and AAA talent, promises to bring fresh energy and thrilling matchups that could elevate the sport’s global appeal.
