Fox to Air Lucha Libre Promotion AAA in Mexico (EXCLUSIVE)
AAA, the iconic lucha libre promotion, is coming to Fox.
Variety has learned exclusively that AAA is set to begin airing on Fox in Mexico in 2026 as well as across Central and South America, excluding Brazil. Under the deal, Fox will broadcast AAA events including the annual Triplemania show.
“This agreement with AAA represents an important step in our strategy to continue building a diverse and relevant sports offering for the Mexican audience,” said said Luis Maldonado, executive director of programming and marketing at Fox Mexico. “Lucha libre is an essential part of culture and passion in Mexico; we are very proud to bring its stories and idols to millions of households across the country.”
AAA content will be available across Fox platforms, including the Fox channel on Tubi, the Fox pay TV channel, and the SVOD platform Fox One.
AAA’s current roster includes stars like Rey Mysterio, Dominik Mysterio, Psycho Clown, Pagano, Pentagon Jr, Rey Fenix, Mr Iguana, Vikingo, Lola Vice, La Parka, Dragon Lee, and El Grande Americano. It was announced in April that WWE had acquired a controlling interest in the promotion, with joint shows and talent sharing taking place since then. Meanwhile, Fox Latin American began operations in Mexico in June 2025 following the acquisition of Caliente TV.
“We are very excited to partner with Fox, a brand that shares our vision of innovation and entertainment,” said Patrick Dooley, senior vice president of global strategy and creative operations at WWE. “This partnership will elevate AAA to new audiences and take Mexican sports entertainment to another level.”
AAA joins Fox’s Mexican sports programming that already includes national and international soccer, with matches from Liga MX, the Premier League, the UEFA Champions League, Ligue 1, the Coppa Italia, and more; as well as baseball, auto racing, padel, and other sports.
“AAA has been part of my roots since day one and to see it reach new audiences on Fox in Mexico fills me with pride and excitement,” said legendary luchador Rey Mysterio. “Lucha Libre is part of our culture and bringing these stories to a broader audience is just the beginning – the future of AAA is brighter than ever.”
