Following WWE’s acquisition of AAA, the promotion has experienced a resurgence in fan engagement, signaling a new era of growth and excitement in lucha libre wrestling.
As AAA prepares for its first major event of 2027, the company has confirmed the inaugural show of the year will be held at Arena GNP Seguros in Acapulco, Mexico—a venue with a capacity of 12,000 spectators.
The scale of the arena suggests a high-profile lineup, with multiple marquee matches anticipated on the card.
Flammer vs. La Hiedra vs. Maravilla
With Flammer’s historic 1,000-day Reina de Reinas Championship reign ending at TripleMania, internal friction within Las Toxicas continues to escalate. La Hiedra, the sole reigning champion in the faction, appears poised for a potential split from Flammer, while Maravilla struggles to mediate the growing discord.
With tensions mounting, a triple threat showdown featuring all three Las Toxicas members could define the Acapulco event.
Women’s Intercontinental Championship – IYO SKY vs. La Catalina
IYO SKY, La Catalina and Roxanne Perez faced off in a Money In The Bank Qualifier on Raw
Given AAA’s major venue booking, WWE is expected to deploy key roster members to the show. IYO SKY, preparing for a Women’s Intercontinental Championship title shot, could benefit from capturing the belt at the event to enhance her storyline impact.
If IYO SKY secures the championship, WWE should prioritize an impactful reign featuring high-stakes defenses against top competitors like Penta and Chad Gable. Her recent Money In The Bank qualifier against La Catalina and Roxanne Perez further builds anticipation for their first singles encounter.
AAA Mega Championship – El Grande Americano vs. Omos
Omos debuted in AAA as part of last year’s Copa Bardahl Battle Royal
After overcoming Dominik Mysterio in a rematch at Heroes Immortales, El Grande Americano must now defend against Omos, who intervened unsuccessfully to aidDominik in a recent confrontation with Rey Mysterio.
Pairing Omos with AAA’s top babyface could galvanize crowd support, making this title defense a pivotal moment.
Mask vs. Hair – Rey Mysterio vs. Dominik Mysterio
Recent reports suggest Rey Mysterio may retire from in-ring competition in 2027, mirroring AJ Styles’ earlier-than-expected retirement timeline. A confrontation with his son, Dominik, in Acapulco would represent a career-defining storyline and major ticket seller.
