CMLL have issued a statement on their involvement in next week’s edition of AEW Rampage.
Earlier this week, Tony Khan announced that Mistico would make his AEW debut on the October 20th edition if AEW Rampage when he faces off with Rocky Romero in singles action.
With this booking, many fans wondered what this means for AEW’s relationship with AAA, but it seems that AEW at least is under the impression that they can book talent from both AAA and CMLL per the latest Wrestling Observer Newsletter.
On Friday, CMLL took to social media and issued a statement about the upcoming match.
You can check out the translation for the statement below.
CMLL is happy to announce & confirm the participation of current CMLL World Middleweight Champion Mistico in a one-on-one match against Rocky Romero on AEW Rampage, hoping for this to be an exciting start of a new era between two of the biggest companies in Wrestling worldwide.
This collaboration between CMLL & AEW is focused on not just bringing a unique experience for the fans, but impulse the growth & promotion of wrestling around the world as both companies share a common vision in taking the sport to new horizons & are excited to explore future opportunities together.
