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”
