El Grande Americano is causing trouble for the AAA roster, as revealed in a recent backstage segment. During a WWE Live event in Mexico City, several AAA wrestlers, including Psycho Piero, Pagano, and the popular Iguana, ganged up on WWE Speed Champion Pinata, leaving him defeated.
Although El Grande Americano has made multiple appearances on AAA recently, the character is now portrayed by Ludwig Kaiser instead of Chad Gable. While masked characters aren’t usually embraced by the roster, fans have shown strong support for El Grande Americano.
El Grande Americano’s upcoming high-profile match will be for the AAA Mega Championship. Initially, it was planned as a triple threat match involving Dragon Lee and then-champion El Hijo del Vikingo, but after Dominic Mysterio interrupted by attacking Lee and Vikingo, the WWE Intercontinental Championship was added to the stakes of the AAA Mega Championship match.
Both in WWE and AAA, El Grande Americano continues to generate buzz. Despite some controversies surrounding the character’s exaggerated claims, it’s clear that this masked “Luchador” persona is here to stay.
Fan Take: This crossover between WWE and AAA through El Grande Americano offers an exciting fusion of wrestling styles and storylines, which can attract a broader fanbase. For WWE fans, it highlights the growing influence of international wrestling culture and hints at more dynamic, high-stakes matches in the future.
