AAA On FOX – September 5, 2026: A Different Kind Of Show (Includes Full Show)

AAA On FOX
Date: September 5, 2026
Location: Coliseo Centenario, Torreon, Mexico
Commentators: Corey Graves, John Bradshaw Layfield

We’re back to the regular show after last week was kind of preempted due to Ola de Calor. That was a big enough show as you do not often see AAA go that long, but more importantly we’re on the way to TripleMania in less than a week. The show will likely get some more matches announced this week so let’s get to it.

Here is Ola de Calor if you need a recap.

Ola de Calor recap.

Opening sequence.

We look at La Parka winning the Latin American Title.

Dinamico/Los Vipers vs. El Fiscal/La Parka/Mr. Iguana

Granted Parka doesn’t have the belt due to the taping schedule but oh well. Parka headlocks Hysteria to start and it’s off to Iguana for a rolling X Factor. Fiscal comes in for a running start to clothesline Dinamico and gorilla presses Hysteria, with Dinamico breaking it up. Taurus’ front facelock is broken up just as quickly and Iguana comes in to take over. Parka comes in to powerbomb Dinamico and everything breaks down. Iguana’s dive to the floor takes out the other team and Fiscal’s running flip dive takes out a bigger pile. Parka dives onto everyone, setting up the Bone Breaker to pin Hysteria at 6:45.

Rating: C+. This was a rather basic six man tag, which makes it rather perfect for a show like this one. Parka and Iguana are both incredibly popular and Fiscal was there to make things a bit more serious. It’s not the most important match, but the fans were into it and it was pretty quick, which I’ll take.

We look at La Catalina winning a gauntlet match last week to become the new #1 contender to the Reina de Reinas Title.

Despite her banged up arm, Catalina is ready to beat Flammer for the title.

Video on Penta beating Rey Fenix to earn a title shot at Roman Reigns in Mexico City.

Rey Mysterio announces that the Psycho Circus will defending the Trios Titles (those are a thing) against Los Perros del Mal. This will be the first title defense this year, and yes that’s fine as titles are very different in AAA.

El Grande Americano is in the ring and joined in progress, as he brings out Torreon’s Pimpinela Escarlata for a chat. Escarlata is rather well received and thanks the fans while apologizing for crying. Americano praises Escarlata and that’s about it. This felt like it would have been better served as a segment for the live crowd but it’s fine enough for a segment on a go home show.

Americano talks about what a crazy year this has been but not he wants more. That means winning the Mega Title, but there is more to it than that, as this is about our culture. As usual, Americano can sell this perfectly.

Mr. Iguana comes in to see Rey Mysterio and after some praise, asks for a title shot. Mysterio agrees to give him a title shot at TripleMania, where he and Laredo Kid can challenge La Parka for the Latin American Title. Iguana is happy as Mysterio goes to take a call, with Parka coming in. Parka doesn’t know about the title match and Iguana says the two of them need to talk.

TripleMania rundown.

The War Raiders issue an open challenge for a title match for TripleMania.

Adelicious vs. La Catalina

Flammer is at ringside. Catalina starts with an armdrag and forearms away but Adelicious is back up with a Sling Blade. That isn’t working for Catalina, who sends her into the buckle and hits a missile dropkick, followed by a spinning faceplant for the pin at 3:35.

Rating: C. This was just a squash and that’s all it should have been, as the title match is in about a week. Catalina is primed to be a real threat to take the title and it’s not like Flammer isn’t ready to lose the title. They needed to have something to fill in the show and as weak as the women’s division may be, this was as good as anything else.

Post match Catalina calls Flammer in but doesn’t get what she wants. Instead Catalina dances to end the show.

Overall Rating: C. Oh man this was a weird one, as it was basically a big pre-show for TripleMania with the matches meaning almost nothing. Ola de Calor changed everything as you had that as the big last show and this as the leftovers. That’s not the best way to go, but again, AAA is not WWE and it shouldn’t be compared with the same norms. Not a great show, but TripleMania is all that matters anyway.

Results
El Fiscal/La Parka/Mr. Iguana b. Dinamico/Los Vipers – Bone Breaker to Hysteria
La Catalina b. Adelicious – Spinning faceplant

AAA On FOX – August 22, 2026: Feel The Heat? (Includes Full Show)

AAA On FOX
Date: August 22, 2026
Location: Coliseo Centenario, Torreon, Mexico
Commentators: Corey Graves, Rey Mysterio, John Bradshaw Layfield

We’re rapidly approaching TripleMania and the big story continues to be Dominik Mysterio teaming up with El Ojo to deal with El Grande Americano. That could make for some interesting situations between now and the biggest show of the year, but we also have to deal with the new monster coming after the Psycho Circus. Let’s get to it.

Here are last week’s results if you need a recap.

The opening recap looks at Los Perros del Mal recruiting Penta to fight with them, saying he needs help against Roman Reigns and the Bloodline (as we continue pretending that anyone but Penta is winning the #1 contenders tournament). Penta isn’t sure, but will face Bronco Nima tonight with his future on the line.

Opening sequence.

Galeno vs. Omos

Dorian Roldan is here with Omos. Galeno forearms away to start and Omos is staggered but knocks Galeno into the corner with ease. A beal out of the corner sends Galeno flying and Omos gives him a slam. Back up and Galeno dropkicks the knee to set up a DDT as the fans are behind him. Galeno’s frog splash only gets one and Omos’ chokeslam gets two. They go outside with Galeno using the steps, which Omos takes away and uses on Galeno. The referee calls what we’ll say is a No DQ at 5:28.

Rating: C+. This was the old WWF idea of a battle of the big men, even if one of them was tiny compared to the other. That’s how you should use someone like Omos, as he doesn’t get in the ring very often and gets to smash through anyone. It worked here, with Galeno doing well in his role as well.

Post match Omos goes to crush Galeno but Rey Mysterio gets in his way. A chokeslam is loaded up but Roldan breaks it up, with Mysterio suspending Omos. That earns Mysterio a shot to the chest as Dominik Mysterio is here to try to calm things down.

Flammer and La Hiedra came in to see Rey Mysterio earlier today, with Flammer saying she’s taking TripleMania off because there is no one left to come after her. Mysterio had another idea: a gauntlet match, with the winner getting the TripleMania title shot. Works for Flammer, but Mysterio wants to talk to Hiedra about something else.

Money Machine vs. LWO vs. Psycho Circus vs. Los Americanos

For a Tag Team Title shot. Del Toro and Rayo trade missed dropkicks to start and it’s off to Wilde, who gets taken down with a backbreaker. A slingshot hilo connects on Wilde so Money Machine comes in to take over on Bravo. The Circus comes in to take over on Oro and it’s everyone getting together to go after Murder Clown. Plata hits a dive to take over and the Machine beats on Bravo in the corner.

Naturally Bravo can suplex both of them at once and it’s back to Rayo with a top rope seated senton. It’s right back to to Dave The clown to clean house, including a big suicide dive to the floor. Murder comes back in for a dive of his own to the floor but of course Bravo is able to give him an airplane spin. The LWO takes the Clowns out and a Phoenix splash hits Rayo, with Bravo diving out of nowhere for the save. A Russian legsweep/top rope clothesline combination finishes Wilde to give Los Americanos the title shot at 12:17.

Rating: B. The match was the usual messy affair that you would have expected but Los Americanos going forward is a good way to go. They’re associated with the hottest star in the promotion so tack them on with another title match. It’s not like any of the other teams really stand out all that much.

We get the weekly press conference from Rey Mysterio, where he reiterates that Omos is suspended and says that Galeno will be out of action due to injuries. Therefore, Damian Priest will be in the final match for the Latin American Title. That’s next Sunday at Ola de Calor.

Penta vs. Bronco Nima

If Penta wins, he’s free but if Nima wins, Penta is in Los Perros del Mal. Nima jumps him from behind to start and throws him inside for the bell. Penta’s mask is tied to the rope but Nima takes too long, allowing Penta to fight back. That means the big running flip dive, only for Nima to come back with a shoulderbreaker for two.

The Mexican Destroyer is blocked so Penta has to settle for a tornado DDT. Penta is right back with a basement superkick and another try at the Mexican Destroyer, which is blocked as well. This time though the counter is countered into a small package to give Penta the pin at 4:58.

Rating: C+. This didn’t have time to go anywhere but Penta isn’t about to lose anytime soon when he is all but guaranteed to get a title shot against Roman Reigns in a few weeks. This wraps up the loose end of Los Perros as Penta is on his way to Mexico City and the biggest match of his career. Nima was just a warm body here and that’s fine.

Post match Los Perros come in and lay Nima out, with Penta just leaving them be. Penta gets in and is offered a shirt but turns the team down. That earns Penta a beating of his own. Rey Fenix and Dragon Lee run in for the save and the challenge is issued for Ola de Calor. Rey Mysterio makes it official to end the show.

Overall Rating: B. The more I watch of this show, the more I like it. This was another situation where they started fast and kept going, covering a few things in just over an hour. It remains the easiest show to watch every week and I could go for seeing where it goes in the coming weeks. TripleMania should be a show stealer and that’s exactly what it should be, especially with how well this show has been going as of late.

Results
Omos vs. Galeno went to a double DQ when they both used the steps
Los Americanos b. Money Machine, LWO and Psycho Circus – Russian legsweep/top rope clothesline combination to Wilde
Penta b. Bronco Nima – Small package

AAA On FOX – August 15, 2026: One Of Their Best (Includes Full Show)

AAA On FOX
Date: August 15, 2026
Location: Coliseo Centenario, Torreon, Mexico
Commentators: Rey Mysterio, Corey Graves, John Bradshaw Layfield

We’re rapidly approaching TripleMania and a bunch of the roads lead to El Grande Americano vs. Dominik Mysterio. That’s not all we’ll be seeing on the show though and more of the card will need to be built up. Last week saw Psycho Clown attacked by some weird guy, which almost has to tie into the attacks on the Psycho Circus. We might get some more of that here so let’s get to it.

Here are last week’s results if you need a recap.

The opening recap looks at last week’s interview with Dominik Mysterio, who talked about how he didn’t join Los Perros del Mal but turned on El Grande Americano for suggesting that he did. Now he’s with El Ojo, and Americano is going to need some help to beat Mysterio at TripleMania.

Wrestlers are arriving and it’s El Grande Americano getting in a fight with Dominik Mysterio, which spills into the ring. Rey Mysterio tries to break it up and Dominik gets in a low blow. The Mysterios argue and Dominik bails. Americano says his issue with Dominik is about people comparing him to various lucha libre legends. That will never happen, because those legends gave to wrestling but Dominik always takes. At TripleMania, the title returns home for all of the Mexican legends when the belt comes to Americano. As usual, Americano is awesome at these promos and I want to see him win.

Cruiserweight Title: Rey Fenix vs. Noisy Boy

Fenix is defending and we get a hand slap to start. They run the ropes rather quickly to start with Boy being sent outside. The places are switched and Fenix is dropkicked to the floor, setting up the big dive. Back in and Fenix’s kicks don’t do much good as Boy snaps off a running headscissors.

Fenix is right back up with the rope walk kick to the head and a high crossbody. Boy grabs a cool springboard spinning cutter for two of his own but Fenix is back with a nasty Fenix Driver for the same. The Mexican MuscleBuster is broken up so it’s a springboard poisonrana to give Boy two more. A handspring moonsault gets the same but Boy misses a moonsault. That’s enough for the Mexican MuscleBuster to retain at 5:51.

Rating: B. As usual, this was about taking two talented high fliers and putting them in the ring to go nuts for a few minutes. I could have gone for a few more minutes, as Boy was getting rather impressive with some of the things he was doing. It felt more like a way really give him a chance and that worked out well. Rather good stuff here.

Here is Penta (who greets his brother Fenix on the way to the ring) for a chat. He’s here to talk about one person and that is Roman Reigns. The reality is that Reigns has never faced him and Penta has fought for everything. He’s never needed a family or a faction to accomplish his goals so he’s going to win the tournament and then show Reigns what Penta really is.

Cue Los Perros del Mal and Rey Mysterio knows this isn’t good. Commentary points out that Penta is a former member of Los Perros del Mal…and Penta hugs them. Daga welcomes Penta back and explains how things happened back in 2012. But then they lost Perro Aguayo Jr. and now Daga wants to know what Penta meant about not needing a family.

More than ever, Penta needs a family because Reigns isn’t just a man. If they go together, it could all work, because this is about Mexico vs. them. Reigns respects power and there is power in numbers. Penta is offered the shirt and says he’ll think about it, with Daga saying he has until the end of the night. They hurried through this but it still worked.

Raw World Title #1 Contenders Tournament First Round: La Parka vs. Psycho Clown

They trade armdrags to start and it’s time for Parka to dance. The taped up Clown kicks Parka in the corner and shrugs off a tilt-a-whirl backbreaker. Clown is quickly suplexed into the corner but comes right back with a sunset flip for two. Parka misses a charge and crashes out to the floor, naturally setting up the suicide dive. Back in and the super Spanish Fly so Clown is right back with a Canadian Destroyer to take over again.

Parka dropkicks him into the corner and the turnbuckle pad is taken off, only for Parka to grab a rolling cutter. The referee actually does his job by trying to put it into the corner, where he is quickly crushed. That means the Psycho Driver gets no count so Clown takes off the first layer of his mask…and the lights go out. It’s the big guy from last week who wrecks Clown again and sends him into the barricade and post, with Parka not seeing what happened. The Bone Breaker finishes Clown at 9:08.

Rating: C+. They kind of had to have the attacker come in again here, as there was pretty much no reason to have him show up last week and then not again this week. Parka is a popular star and probably better known to the Raw audience so he makes for a better option in the tournament. The main point here was the big attack again though and the story could get more interesting when we find out some details.

Post match Parka checks on Clown and waves medics down to help.

Penta is considering the shirt when Los Perros del Mal come in. Penta says he respects everything that the shirt and the team mean to him but he’s not sure. If he does this, he wants to make sure there is no dead weight, which doesn’t please Bronco Nima. They agree to face off next week, with Penta’s future in the team on the line. Penta hits the catchphrase, with the fans approving to end the show.

Overall Rating: B+. This show was focused and to the point, with a title match, a tournament match and a bunch of attention on the bigger stories. It was such an easy show to watch and I want to see more from pretty much everything they did this week. This was a rather good show and one of the better they’ve done in a bit. Heck of a job here.

Results
Rey Fenix b. Noisy Boy – Mexican MuscleBuster
La Parka b. Psycho Clown – Bone Breaker

AAA On FOX – August 1, 2026 (Verando de Escandalo Week Two): Oh Who Cares? (Includes Full Show)

AAA On FOX
Date: August 1, 2026
Location: Arena San Marcos, Aguascalientes, Mexico
Commentators: John Bradshaw Layfield, Rey Mysterio, Corey Graves

It’s time for the second week of Verano de Escandalo and we have another title match, as Rey Fenix defends the Cruiserweight Title against Mini Vikingo. The big story coming out of last week was Dominik Mysterio joining up with El Ojo, which should create some problems for El Grande American as we get closer to TripleMania. Let’s get to it.

Here are last week’s results if you need a recap.

We open with a recap of last week’s main event, with Dominik Mysterio betraying El Grande Americano, but for El Ojo rather than Los Perros del Mal.

Last week, Mysterio says you should have expected that because he is the King of the Luchadors.

Latin American Title Qualifying Match: Lince Dorado vs. Mecha Wolf vs. La Parka

Parka dances a bit to start and gets knocked down by the other two. Dorado is sent outside though and a dropkick has Wolf joining him. Parka dances some more and grabs a tilt-a-whirl backbreaker on Dorado. That lets Parka dive, only for the other two to catch and post him. Dorado throws Wolf down though and snaps off a top rope hurricanrana to Parka. Wolf is back up for a dive each to both of them, followed by a DDT for two on Dorado.

Parka is back in with a double rolling cutter and a double flapjack for a bonus. The middle rope moonsault hits Dorado and Wolf on the floor as the fans certainly approve. Parka is knocked down, leaving Wolf to spinning superplex Dorado. Parka’s diving save breaks that up at two and fireman’s carries both of them at once.

Dorado escapes to give Parka a handspring Stunner before taking Wolf off the apron. Back in and Dorado gives Parka a shooting star press for two more. Wolf mists Dorado but gets suplexes by Parka. An overhead belly to belly sends Wolf into the corner and it’s a top rope splash into the Bone Breaker for the pin at 12:05.

Rating: B. This was pretty much non-stop throughout the match and I got into the whole thing. That’s not the biggest surprise as these matches tend to be nuts, but this was even bigger than usual. Parka is just crazy popular right now and it’s great to see the fans responding like that.

Someone films the Psycho Circus….walking? In theory it’s the attacker filming them because who else would it be?

Los Perros del Mal brag about what they’ve done so far and promise that things are growing even bigger next week.

Dinamico/Drago vs. Galeno/El Hijo del Dr. Wagner Jr.

Dinamico jumps over Wagner to start and it’s off to Drago for a pump kick. Wagner isn’t having that though and knocks them both down, with Galeno making a blind tag. Galeno runs over Dinamico on the floor with Drago getting caught in the wrong corner. Wagner boots Dinamico out to the floor and it’s a splash off of Galeno’s shoulders. The Galeno Special finishes Drago at 2:43. Total squash.

Rey Mysterio was surprised by Dominik Mysterio joining El Ojo but he isn’t backing down. That’s all for this week though, because we have a big main event.

Cruiserweight Title: Mini Vikingo vs. Rey Fenix

Fenix is defending. They shake hands to start and they flip around a lot, followed by a series of kicks. Vikingo’s spinning high crossbody gets two, as does Fenix’s. Back up and Vikingo’s crucifix driver gets two more but Fenix is back up with a rope walk kick to the head. A Death Valley Driver gives Fenix two more so Vikingo gives him a Spanish Fly for the same.

Fenix’s kick to the face doesn’t do much as Vikingo knocks him down and hits a frog splash for another near fall. The super Spanish Fly plants Fenix for two more and Vikingo can’t believe the kickout. Fenix’s Mexican MuscleBuster is broken up so he opts to just knee Vikingo in the back of the head for two more. Now the Mexican MuscleBuster can retain the title at 10:53.

Rating: B+. Much like the opener, this was about taking people and letting them go nuts for a few minutes until one of them got the pin. Fenix was getting exasperated at not being able to put Vikingo away and that made some of Vikingo’s near falls feel even better. I dug this one a lot and it moved Vikingo up even in a loss.

Post match respect is shown. Vikingo goes to the back, where Dorian Roldan whispers something to him to end the show.

Overall Rating: B+. While this might not have felt like some big special edition show, it was more than entertaining enough for about fifty five minutes. The two matches that actually got some time were both more than good and the squash match was the kind of entertaining you get from something like that. I’m not sure if it needed to be part of Verano de Escandalo, but I’ll take what I can get here. Rather fun show, as AAA can often be.

Results
La Parka b. Lince Dorado and Mecha Wolf – Bone Breaker to Wolf
Galeno/El Hijo del Dr. Wagner Jr. b. Dinamico/Drago – Galeno Special to Drago
Rey Fenix b. Mini Vikingo – Mexican MuscleBuster

AAA On FOX – July 25, 2025 (Verano de Escalando Week One): Yeah He Had To (Includes Full Show)

AAA On FOX
Date: July 25, 2026
Location: Arena San Marcos, Aguascalientes, Mexico
Commentators: John Bradshaw Layfield, Rey Mysterio, Corey Graves

It’s the first week (out of three) of Verano de Escalando and that means we’re in for the first of three big main events. In this case that means El Grande Americano/Dominik Mysterio vs. Los Perros del Mal. Other than that, the Mixed Tag Team Titles are on the line and that should be worth a look so let’s get to it.

Here are last week’s results if you need a recap.

Here is Rey Mysterio to welcome us to the show and talk about how important this city has been to his career. He has some good news for us but here is El Ojo to interrupt instead. Dorian Roldan says that Mysterio has been in charge while El Hijo del Vikingo has been injured and costing Omos a chance at the Latin American Title. Mysterio needs to make Omos the Latin American Champion right now, or violence will ensue. That’s still a no so Roldan threatens him and the villains walk off.

Dominik Mysterio and El Grande Americano don’t trust each other but Mysterio insists that he wants them to face off at TripleMania. Everything seems ok, or at least ok enough. Mysterio leaves and Damian (in a Los Perros del Mal shirt) shows up to say “few are chosen”.

We look at La Hiedra turning on Mr. Iguana but Lola Vice was there to team up with him instead. Now La Hiedra and Laredo Kid want the titles, with Vice suggesting that Hiedra still loves Iguana.

Mixed Tag Team Titles: La Hiedra/Laredo Kid vs. Mr. Iguana/Lola Vice

Iguana and Vice are defending. Kid wrestles Iguana down to start before they both flip over, with Iguana sitting on the mat. A running dropkick puts Kid down so Hiedra comes in for a staredown with Iguana. That doesn’t work for Vice who comes in to strike away, with the hip shaking included. Kid gets struck down as well and the champions get to pose for a bit. Hiedra and Iguana have another staredown on the floor and Iguana seems to be a bit deflated.

Back in and Hiedra chokes Vice on the rope and we hit the chinlock. Vice gets up with a belly to back suplex and there’s the tag to the men. Kid comes back in to kick Iguana down and hits a 450, with the referee just pausing in the middle of the count. Iguana gets up and even Mysterio isn’t sure what happened. The women come back in for a rollup until Vice kicks Hiedra in the head for two more. Iguana is sent into the steps so Vice takes Kid out, only to get Glam Slammed for the pin and the titles at 9:35.

Rating: C+. This was interesting as they had only made a few references to the whole love triangle thing. Instead we got a much more detailed look here and it made for a better story. If nothing else, the title change was a bit of a surprise, though it does feel like it gives the story another extension.

We get the weekly press conference with Rey Mysterio, who isn’t happy with El Ojo. He’s cut off by a message from Penta though, who will be appearing at the August 15 show. Also, action figures are coming and we get a preview for the next two weeks to wrap it up. Not much to be said here.

Los Perros del Mal vs. El Grande Americano/Dominik Mysterio

It’s Daga/Angel Garza for Los Perros. Daga and Mysterio take turns posing until Mysterio slugs away. A slam gets Daga out of trouble and he chops away in the corner, earning himself a trip into the wrong corner. Americano comes in and gets knocked down by Daga, with Garza shaking the ropes to take Americano down again. Garza gets to hammer down right hands in the corner, with Americano actually fighting back for a unique visual.

Mysterio comes back in and gets clotheslined for two. The beating ensues, at least until Mysterio gets in a tornado DDT. Americano comes back in to fight back and helps Mysterio on the Third Amigo. The frog splash gets two but the 619 is broken up (JBL: “I wish I had learned that counter against his dad.”).

Daga gets taken out with a dragon screw legwhip but the referee gets bumped. The 619 connects so Mysterio loads up his hammer, only for the rest of Los Perros to send him into the steps. A Gory Special into a knee to the face gets two on Americano as here are Los Americanos to make the save. Bravo hits a HUGE dive off the lighting structure (with the drone camera going all over the place for a cool visual).

Bronco Nima puts Los Americanos through a table but gets taken out by Americano. That leaves Americano to get piledriven and caught in a German suplex/missile dropkick combination for two each. Americano fights up but Mysterio drops to the floor and walks away. An assisted top rope double stomp finishes Americano at 20:35.

Rating: B. I was surprised by the result as I wouldn’t have expected Americano to lose for a long time. The good thing is that he lost after a bunch of interference and all kinds of big moves so he is certainly protected. Mysterio turning on him was about as obvious as you could get, though I’ll take this over Mysterio leading Los Perros, which wouldn’t have really fit.

Post match Mysterio goes to leave…and here is El Ojo, with Mysterio seemingly being the new leader. Rey knows this is a big problem to end the show. That’s a good move as El Ojo was just kind of floating around doing nothing so this gives them an actual story to be attacked to, which they’ve been needing.

Overall Rating: B. This felt like a major event and that’s a good thing to see. The main event was a big step forward for Mysterio vs. Americano and they should be fine on the way to TripleMania. Oddly enough the title change felt like a big deal as well, which I wasn’t exactly expecting. Good show here, and it did feel like an important event, as they tend to be around here, at least at the start.

Results
La Hiedra/Laredo Kid b. Mr. Iguana/Lola Vice – Glam Slam to Vice
Los Perros del Mal b. El Grande Americano/Dominik Mysterio – Assisted top rope double stomp to Americano

AAA On FOX – July 18, 2026: They Have Some Ideas (Includes Full Show)

AAA On FOX
Date: July 18, 2026
Location: Arena Potosi, San Luis Potosi, Mexico
Commentators: John Bradshaw Layfield, Corey Graves

We’re on the way to Verano de Escalando and three week event has a trio of main event matches set. This is the last big push towards the show and we have the new oddball team of Dominik Mysterio and El Grande Americano being ready to face off against Los Perros del Mal. That has a long way to get us to TripleMania but they need something to bridge the gap. Let’s get to it.

Here are last week’s results if you need a recap.

Opening sequence.

Here is Rey Mysterio for a chat. He gets right to the point of making amends, which starts with bringing ring announcer Andrea Bazarte into the ring to rehire her for more money. Bazarte is rather happy with the whole thing and is officially back (JBL doesn’t approve). With that out of the way, Mysterio moves on to the vacant Latin American Title. There are going to be four triple threat matches and a four way at TripleMania will crown the new champion Here are the lineups:

• La Parka vs. Mecha Wolf vs. Dragon Lee
• El Fiscal vs. Cruz del Toro vs. Psycho Clown
• Omos vs. Damian Priest vs. Galeno

The fourth match starts right now.

Latin American Title Qualifying Match: El Hijo del Dr. Wagner Jr. vs. Abismo Negro vs. Texano Jr.

Abismo jumps the other two to start fast and Wagner is sent outside. That leaves Wagner to fight up and knock the other two down, only for Texano to get two off a backbreaker. Wagner breaks that up and slugs it out with Texano. Abismo’s Tombstone is broken up and a superplex drops Abismo again. Wagner’s top rope splash gets two with Texano having to make a save of his own. Texano is sent outside and gets punched out by Abismo and his foreign object. Another swing misses Wagner though and it’s the Wagner Driver to pin Abismo at 8:34.

Rating: C+. Perfectly nice opener here with Wagner getting to move on as a former champion. Abismo seems a lot more likely to go up against El Fiscal in the big showdown at TripleMania and Texano…well he exists too. I’m not sure if Wagner is going to be winning the title, but he does fit into the match rather well.

La Hiedra and Laredo Kid mock Mr. Iguana and Lola Vice about how they’re going to win the Mixed Tag Team Titles. Vice says Hiedra still loves Iguana, who does a spit take.

Someone films the Psycho Circus.

La Hiedra/Laredo Kid vs. Faby Apache/Joaquin Wilde

For a shot at Lola Vice/Mr. Iguana, who are at ringside. Wilde sunset flips Kid to start and it’s quickly off to the women. Apache kicks Hiedra down and hammers away in the corner, followed by stereo STF’s to Hiedra and Kid. With those broken up, Hiedra gives Apache a hip attack to take over, leaving Wilde to tornado DDT Kid.

Wilde gets choked in the corner though and Kid gives him a brainbuster for two. That’s shrugged off and Wilde dives over for the tag to bring in Apache to clean house. Apache’s big dive takes out the other three on the floor, followed by a high crossbody for two on Hiedra. Wilde’s backbreaker drops Kid for two more but Apache is back in. Kid grabs her leg though and Hiedra gives Apache a Stunner for the pin at 9:55.

Rating: C+. The Mixed Tag Tam Titles have become a fun idea as they aren’t meant to be taken seriously in the slightest and the teams feel thrown together every time. There is no pressure on them but they have been made to feel important enough because teams want to come after them. That’s more than you get sometimes and I kind of want to see the title match at Verano de Escalando. I wouldn’t have bet on that happening with these belts so well done.

We look back at Dominik Mysterio saving El Grande Americano from Los Perros de Mal.

Rey Mysterio wants to see where this goes and runs down the Verano de Escalando card. Finally, Octagon Jr. is hurt and has a long way to recover but his spot will be waiting for him.

Here are Los Perros del Mal for a chat. The team was around a long time ago and they’re here to go after the weak. They know how to fight and now they’re back because when you’re a dog, you’ll always be a dog. Daga introduces the team and says they’re here to be the nightmares to everyone in that locker room. This includes Dominik Mysterio and they’re ready to face he and El Grande Americano at Verano de Escalando. Cue Mysterio and Los Americanos for the big brawl to end the show.

Overall Rating: B-. This was about getting us ready for Verano de Escalando and the best thing they managed to do was not get dull at the last step. That has been an issue for the company’s previous go home shows but they made it work pretty nicely here. The brawl at the end was the big highlight and at least we have something to get us to a new Latin American Champion over the next few weeks. As usual, it might not be a must see show but it does a good job of keeping me wanting to come back.

Results
El Hijo del Dr. Wagner Jr. b. Texano Jr. and Abismo Negro – Wagner Driver to Abismo
La Hiedra/Laredo Kid b. Faby Apache/Joaquin Wilde – Stunner to Apache

AAA On FOX – July 11, 2026: Prep Time (Includes Full Show)

AAA On FOX
Date: July 11, 2026
Location: Arena Potosi, San Luis Potosi, Mexico
Commentators: John Bradshaw Layfield, Corey Graves

We’re on to a new taping cycle and the big story coming out of last week was the debut of Damian Priest. That’s quite the big name for AAA and it should be interesting to see what he does in his new surroundings. Dominik Mysterio is supposed to be here as well, but that has been somewhat misleading before. Let’s get to it.

Here are last week’s results if you need a recap.*

Dragon Lee vs. Jack Cartwheel vs. Mini Vikingo

For a future Cruiserweight Title shot. Cartwheel is knocked down to start and Vikingo snaps off a running hurricanrana to Lee. Cartwheel dives onto both of them before backflipping into a standoff with Vikingo back inside. Another big dive hits Vikingo on the floor but Lee catches Cartwheel going up. Vikingo breaks up Lee’s double stomp with a super Spanish Fly, leaving Cartwheel to get caught with the running knees in the corner.

Lee is back up to stomp Vikingo but Cartwheel’s slingshot splash gets two. Cartwheel escapes Lee’s Styles Clash attempt and Vikingo cuts off Lee’s dive. Vikingo is sent over the announcers’ table, leaving the other two to brawl. Back in and Cartwheel Spanish Flies Lee for two, only to miss a shooting star press. A sitout powerbomb drops Cartwheel for two but Lee hits the Styles Clash. Vikingo is back in with a 630 to steal the pin on Cartwheel at 8:19.

Rating: B. I’m running out of ways to talk about how much fun these three ways have been. You know exactly what you’re going to get with them but they wind up being all kinds of entertaining anyway. That’s all it needed to be and they seem to be trying something with Mini Vikingo. It’s a good way to start the show and it worked again here.

Post match respect is shown.

Rey Mysterio goes to see El Grande Americano and warns him about Los Perros del Mal. Americano isn’t backing down but he can’t win this alone. Dominik Mysterio comes in to say Los Perros view Americano as weak and they might be right. Rey is glad to have Dominik here again and leaves. Dominik is ready to face Americano at TripleMania but warns him that it won’t happen if Americano is taken out by Los Perros. Don’t worry though, because Dominik will have his back. Americano isn’t quite impressed.

Mini Vikingo stops Dorian Roldan and Omos, saying they bet on the wrong Vikingo.

Here is El Ojo to deal with the fate of the Latin American Title after the injury to El Hijo del Vikingo. Dorian Roldan says he is here for some sad news, as El Hijo del Vikingo is out for weeks after surgery. Once he gets back, they’re going to sue Rey Mysterio (JBL: “Good.”). For now though, there is going to be a new Latin American Champion and it’s…Omos. Well that got more complicated.

This brings out Rey Mysterio to interrupt, saying he knows what Vikingo is going through as he has had a bunch of knee surgeries in his own right. For now though, Omos has one change to hand over the title…and he does just that. The title is officially vacant and he’ll have an announcement about the crowning of a new champion next week. That was a good head fake but just handing the title to an unstoppable monster wasn’t a great idea.

Damian Priest wants in on the Latin American Title.

It’s time for the weekly Rey Mysterio press conference. Verano de Escalando will be a three week event with a main event each week. First up, Mini Vikingo challenges Rey Fenix for the Cruiserweight Title. Also at the show, Lady Shani and La Catalina are challenging Flammer for the Reina de Reinas Title. Finally, we’ll have a #1 contenders match for the Mixed Tag Team Titles, with Faby Apache teaming with Joaquin Wilde against La Hiedra/Laredo Kid, with the title match at Verano de Escalando. More coming next week.

Money Machine vs. Noisy Boy/Epydemius Jr.

Plata and Noisy start things off with Noisy working on an early wristlock. Plata easily sends him down but Noisy backflips away into a quick pose. Oro comes in to headlock Jr., who flips away into a similar pose as the team seems to have a trend. Jr. grabs an armbar to hand it off to Noisy, whose assisted spinning backsplash gets two.

Plata grabs Noisy from the apron though and a suicide dive cuts off Jr. on the floor. A double big boot gets two on Noisy, who rolls underneath a double clothesline and dives over to tag Jr. Noisy’s spinning super hurricanrana brings Plata down so Jr. adds a big running flip dive. Oro gets dropped with a poisonrana but Plata is back in to elbow Jr. Everyone is down…and here are Los Perros del Mal for the double DQ at 8:00.

Rating: B-. This was a weird choice for a main event but AAA can be a weird show at times. There’s nothing wrong with going in a different direction, though it felt like a matter of time until the real story took place. That’s not a bad thing either, as I wasn’t sure where the whole thing was going. At least we got some nice flips and dives in the meantime.

Post match the beatdown is on and Los Perros call out El Grande Americano. Cue Americano with Los Americanos but the three of them are beaten down as well. Dominik Mysterio runs in with a chair for the real save and issues the challenge for a tag match. JBL is stunned as Americano and Mysterio shake hands to end the show. This doesn’t sound logical for Americano but it’s a long way to TripleMania.

Overall Rating: B-. The point of this show was to set up some things for the future, with Verano de Escalando starting to come together. The good thing is that even those special shows aren’t overly long so there is only so much that needs to be done. As usual, this show didn’t wear out its welcome, which makes even the less important shows like this one easy to watch.

Results
Mini Vikingo b. Jack Cartwheel and Dragon Lee – 630 to Cartwheel
Money Machine vs. Noisy Boy/Epydemius Jr. went to a double DQ when Los Perros del Mal interfered

AAA On FOX – July 4, 2026: More To Come (Includes Full Show)

AAA On FOX
Date: July 4, 2026
Location: Foro GNP Seguro, Merida, Mexico
Commentators: Rey Mysterio, John Bradshaw Layfield, Corey Graves

It’s a holiday in America and that probably means absolutely nothing for this show, which is doing quite well without the American side of things. The big story coming out of last week continues to be whomever is attacking the Psycho Circus. Other than that, we have a former World Champion here and that should be making for an interesting situation. Let’s get to it.

Here are last week’s results if you need a recap.

Opening sequence.

Here is Rey Mysterio for a chat. Mysterio talks about how he wants to bring the best to the fans in Mexico so join him in welcoming former WWE World Champion, Damian Priest! JBL: “As an old guy in a cowboy hat used to say, business is picking up!” Priest runs down some of his resume and says he’s dominated in WWE but never in AAA.

He isn’t here to make friends and doesn’t care if you’re good or bad, because he’s ready to destroy. Priest tells us to rise because El Campeon is here. This was a nice moment and Priest should fit in well around here. If nothing else, it’s nice to see him doing the serious stuff instead of paling around with R-Truth.

Lady Shani vs. Flammer

Non-title and the rest of Las Toxicas are here with Flammer. Shani armdrags her down to start and they shove each other a bit, with Shani getting the better of things. Flammer trips her to the mat and hammers away, followed by a kick to the leg in the corner. A spinebuster puts Shani down and Flammer shakes her head a bit, followed by the choking in the corner.

Flammer sends her into another corner but Shani reverses into a choke. An armdrag sends Flammer into the corner for a facewash, followed by some kicks to the head. Shani grabs a bodyscissors and rolls her around into a cradle for two. Flammer is back up with a hammerlock drop for two so she goes outside to grab the title. Cue La Catalina to cut that off and Shani grabs a Backstabber. An Iconoclasm is enough to pin Flammer at 8:56.

Rating: C+. This was a way to set things up for later and it’s a nice enough way to make that happen. The thing I like here is that it wasn’t the cleanest finish in the world, with Flammer costing herself rather than just getting beaten on her own. Someone has to end that title reign and while it feels like Catalina is an option, Shani at least feels like a serious challenger.

We look at Pagano being attacked last week and Psycho Clown begging his forgiveness while swearing vengeance.

We recap El Grande American saying he wanted the Mega Title and then being beaten down by the reformed Los Perros del Mal.

El Grande Americano didn’t see that coming and challenges Los Perros del Mal to show up and meet him next week. He just won’t be alone.

Dinamico/Drago vs. Money Machine vs. Mr. Iguana/La Parka

Plata and Iguana start things off, with Plata offering to buy Yesica. Iguana steals the money instead runs runs up the corner for a hurricanrana. Drago tags himself in and flips around a bit, only to get dropkicked by Oro. That’s shrugged off so Drago can hit a running shooting star but it’s off to Dinamico, who gets dropped by Parka.

Money Machine double teams Parka down, with a spinning splash getting two. The two of them are sent outside though and Drago shooting stars onto them as well. Parka flips Dinamico outside as well, leaving Drago to high crossbody Iguana for two. Money Machine takes over on Parka but get dropped by a springboard dive from Dinamico. Back in and Drago dives into a cutter from Parka, who hits the Bone Bender for the pin at 6:57.

Rating: B-. This was about all you needed it to be as they had a fast paced and high flying match. You pretty much know what you’re getting with a match like this and they did exactly what you would have expected. The fans still seem to love Iguana and Parka so giving them a win in a match like this makes perfect sense.

We look at a three way match from Verano de Escalando in 2009.

Rey Mysterio says Damian Priest is from Puerto Rico but represents the culture. As for next week, both Priest and Dominik Mysterio will be here.

Abismo Negro Jr. vs. El Fiscal

Fiscal fires off the clotheslines to start and hits a Backstabber. Back up and Abismo’s hammering doesn’t get him very far as Fiscal hits a clothesline to the floor, setting up the big suicide dive. Abismo misses an elbow off the steps and gets sent into the post but manages to escape a tombstone. They clothesline each other and here are Los Perros del Mal go jump both of them for the double DQ at 4:24.

Rating: C+. These two have quite the story and commentary explained it again rather easily here. It felt like we could be in for a big fight but the ending was more about setting things up for later. Hopefully they get the chance to have their big match at some point in the future because it feels like they’ve earned it.

Los Perros beat the heck out of both of them (though more Fiscal) to end the show.

Overall Rating: B-. This was definitely more about setting things up for the future than doing much here. That’s not a bad thing either as I want to see what is going to happen with most of these stories. Now all they have to do is actually make those stories work and we should be in for something good. AAA continues to be the easiest show to watch anywhere and hopefully that gets even better on the way to TripleMania.

Results
Lady Shani b. Flammer – Iconoclasm
Mr. Iguana/La Parka b. Money Machine and Dinamico/Drago – Bone Bender to Drago
Abismo Negro Jr. vs. El Fiscal went to a double DQ when Los Perros del Mal interfered

AAA On FOX – June 27, 2026: That’s Just How They Do It Here (Includes Full Show)

AAA On FOX
Date: June 27, 2026
Location: Foro GNP Seguro, Merida, Mexico
Commentators: Rey Mysterio, John Bradshaw Layfield, Corey Graves

The big story coming out of last week was the return of Los Perros del Mal, who reformed with a new lineup to attack El Grande Americano. That’s not going to go well for Americano, who is probably going to need some help. Either way, it feels almost impossible that he isn’t going after the Mega Title at TripleMania so he has some work to do. Let’s get to it.

Here are last week’s results if you need a recap.

The opening video looks at the return of Los Perros del Mal, who are here and don’t follow rules.

Opening sequence.

Here is Psycho Clown, so we recap the Psycho Circus being attacked by someone, who Clown thinks has been Pagano. Back in the arena, Psycho talks about how he is tired of all this and wants to know what is going on. He calls out the rest of the Psycho Circus but none of them know what happened.

Psycho calls out Pagano, who doesn’t show up. The Circus goes to find him…and find a bloody Pagano unconscious in his dressing room. Psycho, who had been swearing revenge during the search, immediately apologizes and begs forgiveness. Pagano wakes up to forgive him, but there is a message on the mirror saying Psycho is next. Interesting indeed.

The Copa Bardahl, a gauntlet elimination match, is returning at TripleMania. We look at Omos winning the most recent edition of the match in dominant fashion.

Galeno vs. Mecha Wolf

How nice of them to have a match almost halfway through the show! Wolf slugs away but gets sent into the corner for some fast clotheslines. Galeno misses a charge to send him outside, where he cuts off Wolf’s dive. Cue Dorian Roldan and Omos to watch as Wolf gets in a cheap shot on the distracted Galeno.

Wolf dropkicks him into the ropes for some running knees to the back but Galeno strikes away. A backsplash and powerbomb get two on Wolf as Galeno’s arm is banged up. Wolf grabs a springboard DDT to limited avail as Galeno blasts him with a clothesline. The cannonball hits Wolf but Galeno stops to glare at Omos. The Galeno Special finishes Wolf at 5:50.

Rating: C+. It’s almost weird to see Galeno treated as a giant but he’s doing a nice enough job of wrestling like one. That should set up a good match between Galeno and Omos, likely with the latter smashing through him. Wolf was little more than cannon fodder here but he did well in that spot.

We look back at a tag match at last year’s Verano de Escandalo with Los Garza winning the Tag Team Titles.

Rey Mysterio was surprised by Los Perros del Mal returning last week but now they have AAA’s attention. In addition, the former WWE World Champion will be here next week and Vikingo will be defending the Latin American Title in NXT. We also get a quick preview of next week’s show.

NXT Women’s Title: Lola Vice vs. La Hiedra

Vice is defending. Hiedra jumps her from behind to start fast and gets an early two off a Michinoku Driver. It’s quickly broken down into a brawl and they crash out to the floor with Hiedra possibly hurting her hip. Back in and Vice kicks away but walks into a spinebuster for two. Hiedra gets her in the corner for some running boots to the spread out thighs and we hit the seated abdominal stretch.

Vice fights up and they grab stereo running faceplants for a double down. Hiedra is knocked outside for a running seated senton, allowing Vice to get in some dancing. Back in and Hiedra hits a quick Stunner, setting up a wheelbarrow faceplant for two. The spinning backfist connects for Vice but here are Las Toxicas for the cheap shot. La Catalina runs in to even things up a bit and another spinning backfist retains the title at 7:42.

Rating: C+. This was a way to have an outside title on the line and that is a good way to spice the show up a bit. La Hiedra was never going to feel like a threat to win the title but Vice is an established name on this show and it was nice to see her getting in a title defense. It might not be the most important thing here but it was a nice treat for the live fans.

Post match Vice dances with La Catalina but Las Toxicas come in to jump them. Lady Shani runs in for a big return and the save to end the show.

Overall Rating: C+. I like the Psycho Circus/Pagano mystery and Galeno vs. Omos should work when it happens. At the same time though, this was another show where it felt like not much was really happening and that’s becoming a bit annoying. The good thing though is the show only runs about forty five minutes so one good segment getting about ten minutes is a big chunk of the show. It’s definitely a different style around here, but hopefully they start giving us a bit more on the weekly shows.

Results
Galeno b. Mecha Wolf – Galeno Special
Lola Vice b. La Hiedra – Spinning backfist

AAA On FOX – June 20, 2026: Bad Taste (Includes Full Show)

AAA On FOX
Date: June 20, 2026
Location: Foro GNP Seguros, Merida, Mexico
Commentators: Rey Mysterio, John Bradshaw Layfield, Corey Graves

After last week’s rather down show, we’re up for something a bit bigger here as both Mega Champion Dominik Mysterio and El Grande Americano are here. That should be enough to carry the show as we are on the long road to TripleMania. It should be interesting to see what is next for Americano after his star making performance last month so let’s get to it.

Here are last week’s results if you need a recap.

As usual various people arrive and I’m not sure why El Grande Americano is carrying a duck.

El Ojo vs. Mini Vikingo/El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr.

Dorian Roldan is here with El Ojo and for the sake of simplicity, we’ll go with “Vikingo” for El Hijo del Vikingo” and “Mini” for Mini Vikingo. Wagner books Vikingo down to start and a dropkick to the back of the head gets two. Vikingo goes to the eyes though and gets two off a rollup with his feet on the ropes. A rip at the Wagner’s mask just wakes Wagner up as he grabs a powerslam and hands it off to Mini.

The flipping and spinning abound but Vikingo gets in a knockdown to cut off the momentum. Omos comes in to choke Mini on the top rope and Roldan even gets in a cheap shot. Some surprisingly fast elbow drops crush Mini and it’s back to Vikingo, who gets taken down with a super hurricanrana. Wagner comes back in to clean house but Vikingo hits a running Meteora in the corner. Mini is back up with a springboard crucifix bomb for the fluke pin on Vikingo at 6:36.

Rating: C+. The shocked face from Mini is a great look and it was rather fascinating to see him be the kryptonite to a star like Vikingo. Odds are this sets him up for the big underdog title shot where Vikingo smashes him but that’s still a great boost for him. The match was also an impressive showing from Omos, who was moving out there in a way you don’t often see from him.

Post match El Ojo comes back in to clear the winners out and the beating is on. Omos grabs the steps but Galeno runs in for the failed save attempt.

Dominik Mysterio says that a lot of things have changed around here but he is still the Mega Champion. He is still the king of the luchadors and he is going to TripleMania.

Psycho Clown is walking in the back…and that’s it. I’m not sure if that was supposed to air at that point.

Video on Rey Fenix winning the Cruiserweight Title.

Cruiserweight Title: Lince Dorado vs. Laredo Kid vs. Rey Fenix

Fenix is defending. Kid snaps off some hurricanranas to take over early on and a Michinoku Driver gets two on Dorado. With Kid knocked down, Fenix rolls Dorado up for two but Kid is back up to pull Fenix outside. Kid’s big dive to the floor takes the other two down, followed by a corkscrew splash for two on Dorado. Back up and Dorado scratches Kid’s back into a Backstabber for two but Fenix is back in with a springboard armdrag.

Fenix is hits his running top rope kick to the head and a huge dive to the floor hits Dorado. Everyone gets back inside and Dorado rolls Fenix up for two. Kid hits a double running Blockbuster for a double two but Dorado is back up with a super hurricanrana to Fenix. Kid knocks Dorado into the announcers’ table but his frog splash hits Fenix’s raised knees. The Mexican MuscleBuster retains the title at 11:11.

Rating: B. This was a rather traditional three way cruiserweight match with everyone flying around and doing their thing to a rather entertaining degree. I’ll take that pretty much every time and it was fun to see them flying all over the place. Fenix gets his first defense in AAA down and it should make for the start of a long reign.

Rey Mysterio is backstage and congratulates Fenix on his win before saying that he is in talks for Fenix to defend his title in WWE. That’s not all though as next week, the NXT Women’s Title is on the line here as Lola Vice defends against La Hiedra. There has also been talks of bringing in a former WWE World Champion who has never wrestled here before but the deal is not official just yet. More on that next week.

Video on the mask vs. mask match between Los Grande Americanos which somehow exceeded expectations.

Here is El Grande Americano to a hero’s welcome and he takes a good while to get inside, as he has quite a few fans to greet. He is happy with his win as he showed everyone what AAA is all about but he didn’t do it alone. Americano thanks the fans and the people who helped him in the match. The people here lifted him up when he was down and this win was for them and all of the people in Mexico.

But what’s next? He has won Rey de Reyes and the mask, so now he wants the Mega Title. That brings him to Dominik Mysterio but here is NXT’s Karmen Petrovic of all people. Americano invites her in but here are a bunch of guys (including Daga, Los Garza and NXT’s Bronco Nima) to lay Americano out.

They all unzip their jackets to reveal Los Perros del Mal (a former heel stable who haven’t been around in eight or nine years) shirts to end the show. Americano’s welcome was great, though I’m not sure how big of a surprise it was that he wants the title that he earned a shot at by winning Rey de Reyes. Still though, this should tied him over until his big title win at TripleMania.

Overall Rating: C+. I liked the ending, but this was kind of a disappointing show overall. The big selling points here were the returns of Americano and Dominik Mysterio. While the former went fine, the latter was absolutely nothing and could have been done on any show. The matches were good but the Dominik thing felt like a bait and switch, as I kept waiting on him to actually show up and it was just nothing. It’s a good show for the most part but that one thing left a bad taste in my mouth.

Results
Mini Vikingo/El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr. b. El Ojo – Springboard crucifix bomb to Vikingo
Rey Fenix b. Laredo Kid and Lince Dorado – Mexican MuscleBuster to Kid
