AAA Triplemania 2023 Monterrey recap & review
My thoughts on AAA's most recent Triplemania show in Monterrey, the good and the bad sides of AAA's brand of Lucha chaos, Lucha politics, and the way AAA choose to book and present El Hijo del Vikingo as Mega Champion.

AAA, then. For those of us who follow Lucha Libre, a source of near constant frustration and bemusement, and to those who don’t, little more than a meme of a promotion. I don’t pretend to be a Lucha Libre expert, but it’s a style and a scene that is close to my heart, particularly the mid-to-late ‘90s era that I voraciously consumed during my tape trading days, and which AAA is currently mining for precious nostalgia.
