WWE Worlds Collide has provided a platform for many AAA performers to gain mainstream recognition, while WWE superstars have made their presence felt in AAA, leading to exciting matches. Recently, Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide (AAA) Latin American Champion El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr. appeared on <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2025\/09\/24\/wild-nxt-and-tna-wrestler-brawl-ends-9-23-nxt\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">WWE NXT<\/a>, raising the question of whether this collaboration could become a dynamic entertainment package.<\/p>\n<h2>NXT and AAA Lucha Libre: A Potential Elevation<\/h2>\n<p>NXT boasts an impressive roster of global talent, and its current storyline with TNA Impact has been captivating. While NXT doesn&#8217;t necessarily need AAA Lucha Libre&#8217;s help to counter TNA, the Mexican promotion&#8217;s involvement could benefit all parties.<\/p>\n<p>Lucha superstars appearing more frequently on WWE shows could pave the way for intriguing matches and storylines in the near future. The AAA Latin American Champion, El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr., could face NXT North American Champion Ethan Page.<\/p>\n<p>Page could boast about Canadian supremacy, while El Hijo could emphasize Mexico&#8217;s rich wrestling legacy, creating a compelling narrative. Similarly, Ricky Starks would relish a match against <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/tag\/aaa-mega-championship\/\" target=\"_self\">AAA Mega Champion Dominik Mysterio<\/a>. Both are WWE superstars, but Dominik is on the main roster, while Starks is in NXT. A storyline involving these champions could elevate them and other superstars.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">&quot;I have eyes on your North American Title.&quot;<a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/luchalibreaaa?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@luchalibreaaa<\/a> Latin American Champion <a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hijodewagner?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@hijodewagner<\/a> has a warning for <a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/OfficialEGO?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@OfficialEGO<\/a>. \ud83d\ude33 <a  href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Myag19ACQZ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/Myag19ACQZ<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; WWE (@WWE) <a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WWE\/status\/1972099002393923762?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">September 28, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h2>NXT and AAA Lucha Libre Could Unite<\/h2>\n<p>Last week, TNA Impact wrestlers invaded NXT, setting the stage for a Survivor Series-style match at NXT Invasion on October 7, 2025.

NXT, however, offers a flexible platform with room for experimentation. NXT North American Champion Ethan Page could face an AAA star, while Jacy Jayne would thrive in a match against a Mexican female luchadora.<\/p>\n<p>It would be intriguing to see if WWE explores this option. Additionally, AAA stars like Rey Fenix and Penta El Zero Miedo could appear on NXT, either supporting or opposing the brand, adding further depth to the crossover.<\/p>\n<p><strong>More From LWOS Pro Wrestling<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em><i>Header photo \u2013 WWE \u2013 Stay tuned to the\u00a0<\/i><\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/\" target=\"_self\"><em><u><i>Last Word on Pro Wrestling<\/i><\/u><\/em><\/a><em><i> for more on WWE NXT and Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide and other stories from around the world of wrestling, as they develop.
