WWE And AAA Integration
This reported interest comes as WWE continues its integration with Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide. WWE acquired the Mexican promotion earlier this year.
Fans will get a chance to see Psycho Clown in a WWE environment very soon. He has already been announced as one of the AAA stars appearing at the WWE SuperShow live events in Mexico this July.
A potential full-time signing would be a major step in combining the two talent rosters. It would bring one of Mexico’s biggest modern stars to a global stage under the WWE banner.
