  • JBL Would Rather Have El Grande Americano In AAA Than In WWE

    JBL Would Rather Have El Grande Americano In AAA Than In WWE

    El Grande Americano has become one of the most over performers currently in Mexico.

    AAA commentator and former WWE Superstar JBL states on Busted Open Radio that he would rather have El Grande Americano in AAA full time than go back to the WWE main roster. He also believes that a TV deal for AAA could happen.

    “I want him to stay in Mexico. There’s no doubt about it to me. It’s hard to get over. It’s hard to get over anywhere. If guys can get over anywhere, I don’t care if it’s Tennessee, Japan, Puerto Rico, Mexico, it doesn’t matter. If you can get over, that’s tough to do”

    “He is the biggest star in Mexico right now, and that is amazing. I would ride this AAA wave. I don’t know what they’re coming for next. I don’t have any insight about this so I’m not giving away anything from meetings or anything. But I think they’re gonna get a pretty good TV deal coming up. They got a good TV Fox deal down from Mexico down south, all the way down to South America. I think they’ll get another TV deal”

    “And what would you want to be? You want to be the biggest star on this new deal and be one of the reasons that they brought it to you? I think that’s an opportunity that’s just too good to pass up. I would stay down in Mexico… He can make a fortune down in Mexico. Some from wrestling, a lot from opportunities down there. They have adopted that man and my advice would be to stay where it’s good”

    Octagon Jr. Suffers Injury, Taken Out On Stretcher During Last Night’s AAA Noche de Los Grandes Tapings

    A scary situation occurred last night during Week 2 of the AAA Noche de Los Grandes tapings, when Octagon Jr. was taken out on a stretcher after suffering an injury during a Fatal 5 Way match.

    The injury happened when Octagon Jr. was on the receiving end of a top rope tornado DDT from WWE Superstar Joaquin Wilde. Wilde went for the pin following the move, which was broken up by El Hijo de Vikingo hitting the two with a top rope splash. Octagon Jr. appeared to have injured his neck while taking the move,  and the referee was checking on him when Vikingo connected with the splash.  The ref quickly threw up the “X” signal stopping the match momentarily, while Octagon Jr. was helped out of the ring and taken to the back on a stretcher.

    You can see video of the incident below.

    We at Bodyslam.net want to wish Octagon Jr. well during his recovery. Currently the extent of the injury is not known. but we will keep you updated here at Bodyslam as more information becomes available.

  • Visa Issues Delaying AAA’s US Expansion

    Visa Issues Delaying AAA’s US Expansion

    Despite multiple AAA stars appearing on WWE programming in recent months, the promotion still has not officially announced any events in the United States.

    According to a new report from Figure Four Online, ongoing visa complications are currently preventing those plans from moving forward.

    During the latest edition of Wrestling Observer Live, Bryan Alvarez noted that visa-related issues are also affecting AAA’s ability to confirm details for its upcoming September 11 event.

    Last weekend, WWE confirmed that Triplemania 2026 will take place across two nights. The first show scheduled for September 11 and the second taking place September 13 in Mexico City. However, the location for the September 11 event has yet to be revealed publicly.

    The report also addressed recent speculation surrounding Angel and Berto following their loss against Oba Femi on WWE Raw. Concerns about the duo’s future began circulating after Angel shared a message on X. Leading some fans to believe their WWE run could be ending.

    However, Alvarez stated that the current belief is that both talents are expected to remain within WWE.  The report added that with AAA potentially pursuing a television deal in the United States hispanic talent connected to both companies could become increasingly valuable moving forward.

    Earlier this year, AAA launched a new weekly television program through FOX Sports Mexico. AAA’s next major event, Noche de Los Grandes, is scheduled to take place on May 30.

    AAA opened the night with a fast-paced triple threat match between Octagón Jr., Lince Dorado, and Cruz Del Toro. The bout featured nonstop aerial offense, quick counters, and high-impact action from start to finish.

    Early in the match, Cruz Del Toro gained control against Octagón Jr. However, Lince Dorado interrupted the attack and launched himself to the outside with a dive onto Del Toro. Moments later, Octagón Jr. answered with a twisting dive onto both opponents to regain momentum.

    The pace continued to escalate as the three competitors traded offense throughout the match. Lince Dorado connected with a stunner-like maneuver on Octagón Jr., but Cruz Del Toro broke up the pinfall attempt at two. Shortly after, Octagón responded with a Golden Plex, though Lince once again stopped the finish by placing Del Toro’s legs on the ropes.

    Cruz Del Toro later cut off Octagón Jr. from the top rope before delivering a Coast to Coast. Lince Dorado answered with a huge 450 Splash as the action continued at a relentless pace.

    Jessy Jackson vs. La Catalina

    Before the match began, Flammer made her entrance to watch the action from ringside.

    The match started with a technical exchange between Jessy Jackson and La Catalina. Jessy quickly took control with an aggressive approach, including a brutal knee strike against the ropes that nearly ended the match. Nevertheless, La Catalina responded with a dropkick from the top rope before following up with offense in the corner to regain momentum.

    Jessy Jackson later regained control with several strikes and a double knee attack. Despite the punishment, La Catalina fought back and mounted a final comeback sequence. She sent Jessy into the ropes before climbing to the top rope and delivering a crossbody splash for the victory.

    Result: La Catalina defeated Jessy Jackson after hitting a top-rope crossbody.

    Following the match, Las Tóxicas attacked La Catalina. Flammer also joined the assault, delivering a hard elbow strike to the chest.

    Psycho Clown and Pagano Face-to-Face

    With Psycho Clown in the ring, he called out Pagano to confront him over everything that has happened in recent weeks. Psycho stated that the situation goes far beyond championships or matches and made it clear that he suspects someone close to them. He admitted it hurts to believe that one of his own brothers could be behind everything happening.

    Pagano reminded Psycho Clown of all the wars and battles they have fought together throughout the years. He denied attacking his partners and claimed that someone is trying to destroy the family from within.

    However, Pagano warned Psycho Clown to be careful with his accusations and suggested that the truth might be closer than he realizes. Psycho then shoved Pagano in the middle of the ring. Pagano responded by saying that once the truth finally comes out, Psycho will understand that he was never on the wrong side.

    As Psycho Clown stood on the entrance ramp, he was suddenly attacked by War Raiders. Pagano immediately ran from the ring to make the save. Afterward, Psycho attempted to thank him, but Pagano rejected the gesture by pushing his hand away before both men exited in opposite directions.

    Back inside the ring, he went for the win but decided to pull his opponent up at the count of two, extending the punishment as a show of dominance.

    Mini Vikingo eventually managed to respond, sending his opponent out of the ring before connecting with a tornillo followed by a crucifix pin attempt.

    With the referee down after a previous impact, El Hijo del Vikingo attempted to use a chair, but the situation changed when El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr. appeared and intervened, delivering a Wagner Driver onto the chair.

The contract terms were then read, including a clause prohibiting any physical contact until May 30, adding even more drama to the upcoming showdown.

    The situation escalated when the immediate firing of Andrea Bazarte was demanded as a condition for the match to take place, which was ultimately carried out in front of the crowd. With everything in order, El Grande Americano signed the contract, making the apuestas match official.

    When the situation appeared completely out of control, Bravo and Rayo arrived to clean house and end the attack, closing the segment with major intensity ahead of the anticipated showdown.

  • The Curious Case of HDLV

    The Curious Case of HDLV

    Lucha Libre has caught the attention of fans outside Mexico over the last couple years, specially when the Mexican companies where one of the few ones that continued to do shows during the Pandemic, giving people another alternatives to watch pro wrestling outside WWE, specially when AEW was just starting to build up their identity around the time, while a few prospects from Mexico caught the attention of people. Today, we will speak about the curious case of one of the top mentioned names that are still shuffling in current day: El Hijo del Vikingo.

    Background of HDV

    First of all: Who’s El Hijo del Vikingo? He’s a second generation star, son of the Luchador King Vikingo, a wrestler known for his independent run on local promotions in Puebla, Mexico and a tenure on Lucha Libre AAA, company where he formed some ties that would have an impact on what would be the future for his children on the industry. King Vikingo was not a popular name for the average fan of Lucha Libre.

    His names starting gaining more attention during 2025, when he was attacked by Alberto El Patron during a tv show in Mexico called Venga La Alegria in the middle of his feud with Hijo del Vikingo in AAA.

    Hijo del Vikingo would make his debut in 2012 at the age of 14 and by the age of 19, he signed a full time contract with AAA in 2017, he started as a filler participant in multi man tag matches and ended up receiving a contract by Vampiro Canadiense.

    Hijo del Vikingo would then become a relevant individual on the Trios Division and the Tag Team Division, working with Laredo Kid and Angelikal in a stable known as Los Jinetes del Aire and would later be joined by Golden Magic, Octagon Jr and Myzteziz Jr. He would become a 2 time World Trios Champion for the company and challenged for the Tag Team Championship several times, one being the highly acclaimed match between him and Laredo Kid against The Lucha Brothers (Pentagon Jr and Rey Fenix) at Heroes Inmortales 2021.

    The Turning Point

    After then reigning AAA Mega Champion, Kenny Omega, retained the championship against Andrade El Idolo at Triplemania XXIX, he randomly declared his intentions to defend the championship against Vikingo, this decision would cause hype on some cases but also a lot of criticism, as a certain sector felt that Vikingo didn’t earned the opportunity to get that chance to not only wrestle Kenny Omega, but a change to become the Mega Champion. The match would end up not happening as Omega vacated the championship due to injury. Vikingo would go on to become champion in a Five-Way match by defeating Samuray del Sol, Bobby Fish, Jay Lethal and Bandido, this match occurred thanks to the former alliance between All Elite Wrestling and Lucha Libre AAA.

    Championship Run and Current Day Boos

    Vikingo would start appearing on AAA programming and several promotions around the United States as champion, including MLW’s Azteca Underground, GCW and finally AEW, where he finally had his match against Kenny Omega in a match that was considered a dream for many, but a forced act for others as Vikingo never looked like a “credible champion” despite being ranked eight on PWI’s top 500, the highest a Mexican wrestler has ever been since Alberto del Rio since 2013. He would go on an vacate the AAA Mega Championship after 833 days due to injury in March 2024.

    During his time way during injury, it was revealed that Hijo del Vikingo stopped paying child support to both of his children, its known that one of the kids is product of his previous relationship with female Luchadora Hades while the other child’s mother information is not of public matter, starting the slow turn of support by Mexican fans towards Hijo del Vikingo, who, apparently, never acknowledged or explained the situation legally (and publicly), causing the AAA socials filled with negative comments towards his persona. He would then return from injury, feuding with Alberto El Patron and El Ojo, but due to the negative comments of child support and the involvement of King Vikingo, who was rumoured to be vouching for his son to get a bigger importance along him on the product, Vikingo started getting constant boos on every show he presented himself in Mexico. Feuding with El Patron, who’s a beloved wrestler in the country and was the AAA Mega Champion at the time didn’t helped his case. WWE would go on and buy AAA, including Vikingo’s contract and making him the first WWE-AAA Deal to be signed, forcing the story with Alberto and El Ojo be wrapped up abruptly, beating him for the AAA Mega Championship to an immense and loud angry crowd and then beating him on a rematch inside a Steel Cage at Triplemania Regia, El Patron would go on and leave AAA after being betrayed by El Ojo, thus getting his contract terminated by WWE orders.

    Hijo del Vikingo has been a prominent persona ever since AAA was purchased by WWE and still is to this day, forming a new version of El Ojo after his heel turn due to the negative of people wanting to support him along Omos and Dorian Roldan. Vikingo’s most recent chapters of his career was challenging Dominik Mysterio at Rey de Reyes, failing to become a three-time AAA Mega Champion and then challenging Penta for WWE’s Intercontinental Championship in what became the first time a WWE Championship was defended on AAA programming.
