On April 19, WWE announced that the company had purchased AAA. The announcement was made ahead of WrestleMania 41 Saturday.
On his Keepin' It 100 podcast, AAA booker Konnan commented on the sale.
"I am going to be on the creative time," Konnan confirmed.
Asked who his boss is, Konnan replied, "Dorian [Roldan], Hunter [Triple H] and HBK [Shawn Michaels]."
Asked if he would be working with Jeremy Borash, who will reportedly be part of AAA creative, Konnan replied, "He could be. He's a creative genius, no doubt about it. There is nothing more fun wrestling with your friends or working with your friends. He's a good friend, so it's going to be a lot of fun."
Konnan then went on to discuss the positives of the sale and why AAA was sold.
"Here's the thing I've always been telling people, but the fans are so passionate and some are too fanatical. Our problem in AAA isn't our talent, it isn't our booking, it's that we didn't have any money. They said in WWE that if you put all our TVs together for one year, it's not as much as they spend on one TV in the United States. We're working with WWE. It doesn't get any better than that. Our show will look a lot better and we'll be able to work with their talent, not just NXT talent. Now, with money, you'll see what we can do.
"The reason they sold the company is not because we were going out of business. The reason they sold the company is because Dorian Roldan put his ego to the side and he understood we could never grow if we didn't have help and capital. Now, we have it. Business was not bad. If business was bad, and this is very well documented, the last two years, all of our TVs have been from 85% to full. Our business is not bad.
"The only thing we're going to give you is a much better, finished product. That benefits everybody, and more work to a lot of people, and more work to all the Latinos, that a lot of people complain and say, 'Why aren't they being used correctly?' Now, they will."
Konnan confirmed that there would be roster changes, but didn't go into details.
AAA and WWE will hold a Worlds Collide event on June 7.
