We get a video from post-match last week of The War Raiders after winning the AAA Tag Team Titles, and they challenge anybody from AAA, Raw, SmackDown or NXT to come for them. We get a promo video for Triplemanía 34 with tickets available for the two-night event in Las Vegas on Friday, September 11th and Mexico City on Sunday, September 13th.
We get a video from post-match last week of El Hijo del Vikingo with Dorian Roldan and Omos congratulating him on winning the AAA Latin American Championship.
Backstage, Rey Mysterio is asked about the mask vs. mask match from last week. He says that match was incredible and history was made in that match as we now have just one El Grande Americano that the fans support. Rey talks about the upcoming South American tour for WWE in September. The media asks him about Dominik Mysterio’s reaction to Rey being named as the General Manager of AAA, and he says even though he was annoyed, family matters don’t belong in the ring. Rey announces that Dominik will be present on June 20th in Mérida, Mexico, and repeats the announcement of Triplemanía in Las Vegas for night one, and night two in Mexico City. “Whomever is Mega Champion at that time will defend the championship on Night 2 of Triplemanía in Mexico City.”
We get a video recap of last month where Las Tóxicas ganged up on La Catalina until she was saved by Lola Vice and Bayley, which leads to tonight’s main event. We get a recap of last week where Chad Gable was unmasked as the Original El Grande Americano. Post-match, El Grande Americano thanked his friends, his fans and all of Mexico for supporting him in his victory. Las Tóxicas all head out wearing matching blue and yellow cheerleading gear, and Lady Flammer has her AAA Reina de Reinas Championship. La Catalina heads out next, followed by Lola Vice with the AAA Mixed Tag Team Title and the NXT Women’s Championship around her waist, and finally out comes Bayley to cap off the entrances.
