Rey Fenix Retains AAA Cruiserweight Title in 3-Way Match at June 20 AAA on Fox

Q: Which former WWE world champion is Rey Mysterio negotiating to bring to Lucha Libre AAA?

The former WWE world champion has not been publicly identified yet. Based on the event report and the additional sourced information, Rey Mysterio said AAA is in negotiations to bring in a former WWE champion, but he did not reveal the name at the June 20 “AAA on Fox” show. The available reporting adds only that the wrestler is a former WWE world champion who has never competed in AAA before, with more details expected on June 27. So, at this stage, the answer is that the identity remains undisclosed.

Q: Is AAA's top champion secretly leading the return of the infamous Perros Del Mal faction?

There is strong storyline evidence pointing to Dominik Mysterio, AAA’s Mega Champion, as a possible hidden force behind the revived Perros Del Mal, but AAA has not confirmed it. The key reason for the suspicion is the closing angle at AAA on Fox in Mérida. El Grande Americano called out Dominik directly, and instead of Mysterio appearing, he was immediately distracted by Karmen Petrovic and then attacked by the new Perros Del Mal lineup: Angel, Berto, Bronco Nima, Daga, and Petrovic. In wrestling storytelling, that kind of timing usually implies a connection. Additional reporting around the event says the ambush has fueled a “sinking suspicion” that Dominik could be the one in charge. That said, the faction’s makeup also leaves room for another interpretation: Daga is a credible candidate to lead the group because of his ties to AAA and the faction’s legacy. So the most accurate answer is that AAA is clearly teasing the possibility that Dominik Mysterio is secretly aligned with, or even directing, the new Perros Del Mal. But as of now, it remains speculation based on the angle’s timing and presentation, not an established fact.
