As one of the most decorated Lucadors to join WWE recently, Penta brings a unique and qualified perspective on the newly announced partnership with Mexican wrestling promotion AAA.
“It’s good for business. It’s good for trance you. I think it’s a very good opportunity for Mexican wrestlers, jungle wrestlers, and generally Mexican brothers.” “Because this door is big. That’s the other opportunity in the world.”
The WWE and AAA landmark partnership was announced a month ago and created a potential talent pipeline between two organizations that have historically operated in separate wrestling ecosystems. Penta, who built much of an international reputation at the AAA before jumping to WWE earlier this year, highlighted the importance of this new relationship.
“I don’t know exactly what the form will look like. I don’t know exactly what Mexicans will look like. I don’t know,” he admitted, acknowledging that specific details regarding the implementation of the partnership remain unclear. “But I’m sure this is the best opportunity for all Mexican wrestlers. Brothers. I’d like to see more wrestlers in WWE.
Penta’s enthusiasm highlights the implications of this transaction to change the potential industry. WWE has featured prominent Mexican stars throughout its history, from Rey Mysterio to Alberto Del Rio to Santos Escobar, but the AAA partnership can accelerate the exchange of talent and create new mutual promotion opportunities that were previously unavailable.
“To be honest, I’m human and seriously, I think that’s good for business, peers,” Penta concluded about the partnership.
“I don’t know when to start. I don’t know the real formula for this project, but in my mind I feel this is a good business.”
Penta has already been escalating the waves with Raw, and the WWE-AAA partnership was just beginning to take shape, and wrestling fans could soon see an unprecedented influx of Mexican wrestling talent and style.
