AAA TripleMania XXX - April 30, June 18, and October 15, 2022

yeah fair. he does love Vikingo. But yeah Konna is a carny fuck who lies all the time and has been causing issues for AEW so maybe he's just talking shit because tk pulled Kenny for an unrelated reason lol

In fairness to Konnan, it'd have to be a damn good reason for him to be pulled or I'd be pretty mad we're missing out on that match too lol Kenny could still be banged up too tho, and is using this to heal more if he came back too soom (a theory I've had but don't rate it too high cause I think pretending to still be hurt was def a work)

is it possible Konnan also just lying and Kenny is the mystery opponent anyways and he's just being a carny here?

That would actually be amazing lol inb4 the mystery opponent is Johnny Omega though

 

[Chris]

Just to clarify everything on the Kenny Omega to TripleMania story. AAA was hoping to get Omega to wrestle El Hijo del Vikingo for the Mega championship on 10/15. Because Omega is suspended and under contract to AEW, if AEW would have allowed it they wouldn't be able to based on the suspension. It wasn't as if the match was planned but AAA was hoping for that match or if not, Vikingo vs, Fenix for the title. It looks like Vikingo vs. Fenix will be the match. Pending resolution of the suspension, this all could change but as of right now the betting line is Vikingo vs. Fenix as the title match on that show.

Classic meltzer word salad but i still appreciate the clarification

Konnan does enjoy quoting Mark Twain “never let the truth get in the way of a good story”

Also Fenix apparently won a fan vote that Kenny was shown as finishing second in

Anyone else think it would be wild if Pentagon jr. loses his mask? I don't see it happening as I think Villano IV is obvious choice, however the idea of Pentagon losing his mask is very interesting.

Mega Championship match is going to be insane since you know Hijo del Vikingo will do some crazy acrobatic moves, and Fenix can match him tic for tac almost so it would be a close call, but I would like Vikingo win it.

Taya versus Kamille was a match I never knew I wanted, but now I really do. I doubt Kamille wins it, but if she does that would be pretty neat to see if she does more shows in Mexico and the fact that NWA would have AAA championship in their promotion.

I won't lie Johnny, Brain, and Sam winning the trios title would be something I wouldn't have seen coming, lol, but I would kind of like it as well. I do think NGD retains here, nonetheless should be a fun match.

I see Hermanos Lee winning the tag title shot because them against FTR is too much of a money for either promotion so not making it happen seems like a huge, missed opportunity. I could see Myteziz & Komander winning it or even Latigo & Toxin, but I don't know. Though, Arez & Willie Mack winning it would be a surprise and I would love it.

Seems like some of these Luchadors will be working twice in the same night like Brain Cage, who is Terror Purpura, but I will enjoy this even if some people don't because I liek the Marvel crossover AAA has.

It appears to have been a rigged poll if you take the Facebook posts as a representative sample. Which you shouldn't necessarily, but... damn, Juvi over 5x the actual winner

 

[Sky]

The result of the Ruleta match is waaaaay too obvious but then again I can see AAA going super smooth brain and making Penta unmask just because something something tradition

I doubt the actual results really match this but holy fuck also yes was def rigged lmao

 

[CakeWalker]

Pentagon might be unmasked - and perhaps AAA have another Pentagon they want to use going forward.

This is my thinking if they do unmask him

I did mean to ask will there be a LD chat for this, or will it be like the last time and be thread only.
