Talks are reportedly gaining momentum
Summary
– AAA could secure a North American media rights deal as early as Q1 2027
– Talks have reportedly intensified, but no agreement has been finalized
– WWE and Konnan have previously identified a television deal as AAA’s long-term goal
AAA may be getting closer to securing a North American media rights deal, with an announcement potentially coming as early as the first quarter of 2027.
Andrew Baydala reports that people with direct knowledge believe talks have recently intensified. While no agreement is finalized, the promotion could soon have a clearer landing spot for its North American television and streaming rights.
The report follows years of discussion about WWE’s plans for AAA. Konnan previously said securing a television deal was the long-term objective after WWE and AAA began working together.
Konnan also recalled WWE President Nick Khan describing their crossover event as a major success. He said WWE viewed the partnership as an opportunity to help AAA reach a much larger audience.
A North American media rights deal would represent a major step for AAA and could significantly increase the promotion’s visibility outside Mexico. For now, the timing and eventual media partner remain unknown.
If the current talks continue, AAA could soon shift from discussing the possibility of a deal to officially announcing one.
