Speaking on Under The Ring, AAA's head booker Konnnan detailed how the company has a different style than the wrestling fans typically see in the United States. Konnan then noted that AAA is negotiating to come into the United States in a "major way," hopefully with a television deal, in 2024.

“Hopefully, next year, I can’t get into details, but we’re negotiating to come into the United States in a major way, hopefully with a TV deal, and show people what Mexican Lucha libre is all about. You won’t see what you see in the United States, which is basically Mexican wrestlers within the confines of an American style. You’re gonna see straight Lucha libre like you saw, maybe if you ever saw Lucha Underground," Konnan said.

In May, General Director of Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide Dorian Roldán discussed AAA's goals for streaming. At the time, he noted that AAA hopes to make a decision in the second half of 2023 or in 2024. Check out his comments here.
