New AAA General Manager
Lucha Libre AAA is ready for a massive shake-up. On May 23, the WWE-owned brand will reveal its new General Manager live from Mexico City. Fans are currently buzzing, and the exciting wrestling rumor mill is spinning incredibly fast today.
The Search For The Next Leader
The drama started on April 18. Dorian Roldan pitched himself for the role to his mother, Marisela Peña Roldan. Instead of agreeing, she officially announced a major search on the April 25 broadcast. She promised to find a powerful candidate who will take lucha libre to unprecedented heights. She boldly noted that with this new boss, absolutely nothing will ever be the same again.
Top Contenders For The Job
Currently, AAA is the only WWE brand lacking an on-screen boss. Adam Pearce runs Raw, Nick Aldis handles SmackDown, Robert Stone leads NXT, and Timothy Thatcher oversees Evolve. So, who steps up for AAA? Dorian Roldan is openly lobbying for the spot. He hopes to elevate the dominant faction El Ojo, featuring El Hijo Del Vikingo and Omos. Rey Mysterio is another logical option, though moving him from the commentary booth requires a shift. Chavo Guerrero recently returned, making him an intriguing wildcard pick.
JBL Makes His Demands Known
One wrestling legend is not staying quiet. WWE Hall of Famer JBL is aggressively campaigning for the position. The current AAA color commentator took to social media to state his case. He proudly declared that Mexico loves him and needs him. He fully expects to be chosen and even preemptively said, “You are welcome. Viva la Bradshaw.” JBL has been a staple in AAA since 2024, and this huge promotion could easily cement his incredible legacy.
The Final Mexico City Showdown
All burning questions will be answered very soon. Eager professional wrestling fans must tune into AAA on FOX on Saturday, May 23 to witness the official reveal in Mexico City. Who will finally take the new leadership throne next month?
