With TV Azteca, AAA got a one-year contract with the television company paying for all of the production. In Televisa, AAA had created practically a tradition on Saturday evenings. The company had a deal that dated back to the 1990s, with Antonio Pe\u00f1a. The latter in charge of TV production for then <strong>EMLL<\/strong> (now CMLL), but transitioned to the newly created AAA.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Head to Head the Biggest Mexican Companies\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>What this deal brings is a national TV competition between Mexico&#8217;s top promotions. With AAA in TV Azteca and CMLL in Televisa, the biggest companies in Mexico will have a battle for supremacy in the ratings and on national television. AAA has a short amount of time to make the deal work (one-year deal). While CMLL will surely operate at the same level that it was working before.<\/p>\n<p>In the press conference, CMLL told the press that one of the main reasons for the announcement was the Homenaje a Dos Leyendas show that they&#8217;ll have soon in March. The legends that are being honored are <strong>Salvador Lutteroth<\/strong> (founder of EMLL) and <strong>Blue Demon Sr.<\/strong> Moreover,<strong> Niebla Roja &amp; Angel de Oro<\/strong> will put their hair on the line against <strong>El Terrible &amp; Bestia del Ring<\/strong> (Los Ingobernables). Also announced for such show, former IWGP Heavyweight Champion and the leader of Los Ingobernables de Japon, <strong>Tetsuya Naito<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre announced today their return to Televisa.
