Promociones Antonio Peña, S.A. de C.V.d/b/aLucha Libre AAA Worldwide[2] (Commonly referred to as simply AAA[3] (pronounced "triple A"; an abbreviation of its original name Asistencia, Asesoría y Administración de Espectáculos,[a] lit.'Assistance, Advisory, and Administration of Spectacles') is a Mexican Lucha Libre (professional wrestling) promotion based in Mexico City, Mexico. It was founded in 1992, when Antonio Peña broke away from Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) to set up his own promotion to have more creative freedom.
AAA primarily hosts pay-per-views (PPV) events in Mexico, and has also promoted international events in the United States and Japan. The promotion broadcasts shows regularly on Gala TV in Mexico, and Univision TDN in Mexico and parts of the United States.
In 1994, AAA co-promoted the When Worlds Collidepay-per-view event with World Championship Wrestling (WCW). The event was critically-acclaimed and is credited for popularizing lucha libre in the United States.[7] Weeks after the show, Art Barr (a key member of Los Gringos Locos) died while visiting his family.[8][9] AAA subsequentally vacated the AAA Tag Team Championships, which led to the departure of fellow stable-mates (in Los Gringos Locos) Eddie Guerrero and Madonna's Boyfriend.[citation needed] El Hijo del Santo also departed as a result of creative problems, and stars such as Fuerza Guerrera and Blue Panther soon left too when the Mexican economy began to slow down (which resulted in the company's inability to offer as much work).[citation needed] Talent such as Rey Misterio, Jr., Psicosis, La Parka, and Juventud Guerrera, would also depart to WCW in 1996, as well as Konnan's short-lived Promo Azteca promotion.
In early 1997, AAA established a working agreement with the World Wrestling Federation (WWF), with several luchadores appearing in the 1997 Royal Rumble.[citation needed] In the mid-1990s the name of the company was changed to simply be AAA (pronounced as Triple A), as the company bought out Televisa and became independent.[citation needed]
2006–2014
On October 6, 2006, founder Antonio Peña died of a heart attack. Following Peña's death, his sister Marisela Peña manages AAA financially; while Peña's brother-in-law Joaquín Roldán and his son, Dorian Roldán Peña serve as operational managers. In 2008, Lucha Libre USA presented AAA's second U.S. pay-per-view, Legendary Battles of Triplemania.[10] In 2009, AAA announced the official release of a video game originally entitled AAA El Videojuego.[11] The game was later retitled Lucha Libre AAA: Héroes del Ring, was released on October 12, 2010.
TNA and AAA's working relationship would end in late 2004.[citation needed] TNA continued utilizing luchadores, but opted to contract them individually.[citation needed] In 2006, AAA and TNA would again team up for an event in Toreo de Cuatro Caminos, utilizing some of TNA's talent and stage (which includes the tunnel and lasers). This partnership would end after Konnan left TNA in June 2007 and filed a racial discriminationlawsuit against TNA; The lawsuit was later dismissed.[12] TNA would later start a relationship with CMLL from 2007 to 2009 [citation needed] , and would begin another working relationship with AAA in February 2010.[13]
2014–2020
On January 12, 2014, it was announced that, with the backing of Mark Burnett, AAA would co-produce a show for the American El Rey Network in the second half of the year. The one-hour weekly program would be accompanied by monthly and quarterly specials as well as live pay-per-views.[14] The show, titled Lucha Underground, premiered on October 29, 2014.[15] The series ran for four seasons, and received generally positive reviews.[16][17]
Beginning in March 2015, the company announced that it would be known as Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide from that point on, although it is still referred to mainly as AAA or "Triple A".[2]
On April 8, 2017, AAA General Manager Joaquín Roldán died.[18]
On 14 June, AAA began airing on FrontRunnerTV in the UK.[citation needed]
In April and May 2018, some Liga Elite talent Teddy Hart, Juventud Guerrera and Taurus made their return to AAA wearing their Elite League jerseys.[citation needed] On June 4, at Verano de Escándalo, Jeff Jarrett returned after 3 years to defeat Rey Wagner and Rey Mysterio Jr. and win the AAA Mega Championship. Jarrett was assisted by Konnan, who also returned to AAA after 2 years.[citation needed]
On February 1, 2019, AAA announced the end of their relationship with Televisa after 27 years, with the promotion's programming moving to the Multimedios television station.[19] On February 3, after Super Bowl LIII, AAA reached an agreement with TV Azteca to broadcast their show on Azteca 7.[20]
On April 4, 2019, AAA announced its first event to be held in the United States, Invading NY, would take place at Madison Square Garden on September 15, 2019.[21] The promotion also announced that would hold a second event in the US titled Invading Los Angeles, at The Forum in Inglewood, California on October 13, 2019.[22] On August 16, 2019, it was reported by Pro Wrestling Insider that Invading NY was moved to Hulu Theater due to poor ticket sales.[23]
2020–present
AAA would cancel and postpone its televised events in mid-March 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.[citation needed] The following April, a tournament called Lucha Fighters was created consisting of 12 luchadores and 8 luchadoras.[citation needed]
During the indefinite recess due to health contingency due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Mexico, on July 20, 2020, AAA announced its project called "AutoLuchas" which consists of a events in Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez where fans could see through from a car.[24] On September 24, AAA announced that it would return to its first performances in early October after the announced project.[25]
In December 2020, FactoryMade Ventures, one of the co-producers of Lucha Underground, filed a lawsuit with AAA; claiming to have exclusive rights to distribute AAA events and merchandise outside of Mexico.[26][27]
On February 2, 2021, the company signed an alliance with SECTUR to promote Mexico's tourist destinations.[citation needed] Bearing the name of the tour as "Lucha por la Identidad Nacional", this included shows such as Rey de Reyes and Verano de Escándalo.
On August 14, Triplemanía XXIX was held at the Arena Ciudad de México. It was the first event since the pandemic began to have a limited number of fans in attendance for biosecurity reasons.[citation needed]Héroes Inmortales XIV would also have a limited audience present.[citation needed]
In April 2014, TNA founder Jeff Jarrett, who was credited for AAA & TNA relationship, had left the company. He announced that his new Global Force Wrestling (GFW) promotion would begin working with the AAA. TNA and AAA would continue to work with each other, including on such events as the Lucha Libre World Cup on May 24, 2015.[30] When Jarrett returned to TNA (then known as Impact Wrestling) in 2017, it was announced that both promotions would continue to be work together.[31]
Each year AAA promotes a number of signature events and tournaments: some shown as pay-per-view events and others presented as TV Azteca television specials. The annual shows and tournaments, shown in order of occurrence during each year, include:
Hosts the Copa Antonio Peña tournament in memory of AAA's founder; held around the anniversary of Peña's death. Renamed from Homenaje a Antonio Peña to Heroes Inmortales in 2009.
AAA has few restrictions on the number of championships it promotes, often allowing wrestlers to defend titles from other promotions; such as the Universal Wrestling Association. Such titles are defended on AAA shows as a way to promote their talents. This long-standing practice ended in December 2008, after the promotion announced it will no longer recognize or promote any non-AAA title.[38]
This list only includes AAA championships and does not include titles from other promotions.
Defeated Engañoso, Gran Mazo, El Leyenda Americana, Picadura Letal, and Terror Púrpura in a tournament final to win the inaugural championship at AAA Noche de Campeones.
