The talent-rich roster includes Rey Mysterio Jr., Fenix, Pentagon Jr., Taya and Dr. Wagner Jr., as well as routinely featuring international stars from other organizations.

“The fans have spoken, so AAA is finally coming to Fight Network,” said Chad Midgley, VP of Fight Network. “From Rey Mysterio Jr. to Eddie Guerrero, some of the best talent to ever grace a professional wrestling ring have come up through the AAA ranks in Mexico. The organization is rooted in tradition and we’re excited to bring viewers a weekly product with excellent production value and world-class talent, the latest addition to our extensive block of professional wrestling content. Blending traditional Lucha Libre with modern style and showmanship, viewers who compare AAA’s product to other properties on the market will quickly realize why the organization has set itself apart as an emerging global powerhouse in the industry.”

“Our partnership with Fight Network enables us to take the AAA experience beyond Mexico to Canada in a way that leverages the legacy of one of the most popular entertainment experiences in Latin America.
