The announcement was made during the WrestleMania 41 Pre-show and garnered a lot of global attention. Since then, both promotions have collaborated to present a lot of great events together. Talent from RAW, SmackDown and NXT make appearances on the Mexican show&#8217;s programming very frequently. However, there is a fan theory making rounds on the internet that what happens on AAA isn&#8217;t canon to RAW or SmackDown. This was confirmed by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/player\/angel-garza\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">Angel Garza<\/a> in his recent tweet.<\/p>\n<p>AAA Lucha Libre has become a major success since WWE acquired it last year. The company has had several great storylines including Dominik Mysterio&#8217;s feud with El Hijo Del Vikingo and the saga of the El Grande Americanos. Both these feuds involved stars who make regular appearances on the company&#8217;s main roster brands as well. Fans had noticed that these stars don&#8217;t follow the same character in AAA as they do in WWE.<\/p>\n<p><template id=\"also-read-articles-template\"><\/p>\n<p><\/template><\/p>\n<p><template id=\"template__newsletter-inline-banner-form-combo-widget\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<p><img id=\"subscribe-img\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/p>\n<p>\nThanks for the submission!\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/template><\/p>\n<p>During his feud with Chad Gable&#8217;s Original El Grande persona, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/player\/ludvig-kaiser\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">Ludwig Kaiser<\/a> was portrayed as a massive babyface over in Mexico. However, whenever he made appearances on RAW, the New El Grande Americano was portrayed as a heel. Fans had been pointing this out for a while and WWE star Angel Garza took notice of this. He talked about this divide in his recent tweet and claimed that he and other&#8217;s will give it their best to protect the legacy of Lucha Libre. A fan replied to his tweet stating that everyone will believe SmackDown isn&#8217;t canon to AAA if Angel says so.<\/p>\n<p>The former AAA Tag Team Champion responded by confirming this fan theory of the two shows not being canon to each other. He wrote:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;100%&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>It will be interesting to see if the Stamford-based company will make the AAA shows canon to their main roster storylines anytime soon.<\/p>\n<h2>WWE Legend the Undertaker has been leading the AAA Creative since it&#8217;s acquisition<\/h2>\n<p>The Undertaker is one of the most celebrated professional wrestlers in the world. He retired from in-ring competition after defeating AJ Styles in the Main Event of WrestleMania 36 Saturday in 2020. He was inducted into the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/go\/wwe-hall-of-fame\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">Hall of Fame<\/a> in 2022 and continues to make appearances for the company on several occasions.<\/p>\n<p>However, the Phenom took up a major role last year when he became the Head of the Creative for AAA Lucha Libre. Under the Undertaker&#8217;s creative guidance, the promotion has produced several great feuds and matches including the latest Mask vs. Mask match between the two El Grande Americanos.<\/p>\n<p>Fans in Mexico are loving this new creative approach of the Deadman to storylines and feuds.<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-post-rating-widget\">\n<p><template id=\"post-rating-feedback-modal-template\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-feedback-box\">\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-content\">\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-data\">\n<p>Why did you not like this content?<\/p>\n<p><textarea id=\"dislike-feedback-text\" rows=\"4\" placeholder=\"Please type your feedback...\"\/>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\n<button class=\"close\">Cancel<\/button><br \/>\n<button class=\"submit\">Submit<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/template><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-widget-parent hidden\">\n<div class=\"rating-parent-container\">\n<div class=\"rating-content-holder\">\n<p>Was this article helpful?<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-action-container\">\n<div class=\"like-container\">\n<button class=\"post-rating-like-button post-rating-button\" data-action=\"like\" title=\"like article\"><br \/>\n<img class=\"post-like-image post-rating-image\" data-lazy=\"\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/like-articles\/upvote-icon-grey.svg\" height=\"20\" width=\"20\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"like selected\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dislike-container\">\n<button class=\"post-rating-dislike-button post-rating-button\" data-action=\"dislike\" title=\"dislike article\"><br \/>\n<img class=\"post-dis-like-image post-rating-image\" data-lazy=\"\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/like-articles\/upvote-icon-grey.svg\" height=\"20\" width=\"20\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"avatar selected\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\nThank You for feedback\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"bottom-tagline bottom\" data-tab=\"bottom\">\n<p>Get all the hottest wrestling news FIRST by clicking <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/preferences\/source?q=sportskeeda.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\" class=\"bottom_tagline_link\" data-tab=\"bottom\">here<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"tag-cloud\">\n<div class=\"tags-text\">\n<div class=\"scrollable-content-holder  article-padding\">\n<p class=\"article-p  \">Quick Links<\/p>\n<p><button id=\"pnAdvancerLeft\" class=\"pn-Advancer pn-Advancer_Left \" type=\"button\"><br \/>\n<img style=\"background: none;\" data-lazy=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/skm\/assets\/article\/article-scroll-left.svg\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button><\/p>\n<nav id=\"pnProductNav\" class=\"pn-ProductNav\">\n<\/nav>\n<p><button id=\"pnAdvancerRight\" class=\"pn-Advancer pn-Advancer_Right \" type=\"button\"><br \/>\n<img style=\"background: none;\" data-lazy=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/skm\/assets\/article\/article-scroll-right.svg\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<p>More from Sportskeeda<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\n<span class=\"publisher-name\">Edited by Ishan Dubey<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/wwe\/news-the-wwe-x-aaa-divide-major-name-confirms-fan-theory\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WWE purchased Mexican Wrestling promotion Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide last year.
