Dunno how to embed tweets but just announced on AEW's Twitter twitter.com/AEWrestling/status/1093676014138523648Announced by Dorian Roldan, will include talent exchanges. Stated could not be there for PC For as much the Roldans are not liked right now it does open the door to some decent talent. |

AEW won't be relying on AAA to negotiate TV contracts for the talent so this might be okay.

Well that seems pretty damning for whatever future LU had going for it.
I can't imagine that show has much, if any point going forward if AAA can get their US exposure from AEW instead.

And I think they've known this for a little while now, thus the deal. I just hope this isn't going to sour some people who may be in that class action like Joey Ryan on working with AEW now. |

Well I don't think AAA would have any say in how AEW contracts were structured. Plus the wrestlers dealings would probably be strictly with the other companies talent, not their management. |

Well this is a good thing LU needed to get rid of that AAA stank.
And now we wait to see how this can play out for LU.....maybe now without the cancer that is AAA and Dorian maybe they can get in on that NJPW , CMLL , ROH alliance.
But also I wonder where this leaves Impact they seem royally screwed with AEW and AAA pairing.

Depends if this is going to be an angle by which people can get out of their LU contracts, really. If this is an angle through which they can give well paying work to the people locked in to these contracts then it's probably going to be seen as a real blessing, at least for Ryan if nobody else. If not... Well, honestly there's quite a few things about AEW and how they've been circling around the indies and saying lots of things that feels like it's one or two big business decision reveals away from turning kind of sour in a lot of ways. |

But also I wonder where this leaves Impact they seem royally screwed with AEW and AAA pairing. People are mixing up what the LU lawsuit is. AAA isn't being sued. It's the people behind El Rey the network and the team that puts on LU, not AAA itself. AAA was only a partner in talent but it was LU itself that had the shitty contracts. |

See the tweet I posted seconds before The suit is towards LU production company/the LLC Which is Dorian Roldan and his investors as they controll the talent contracts. |

At this rate, why would anyone want to partner with AAA? They're shadier than shady.

They've got a huge collection of talent-- particularly Penta and Fenix-- tied down through the Lucha Underground contracts, such that anyone who wants to utilize them on US television has to play ball with AAA. |

I think both AAA and AEW are gonna be looking to out carny the other.
AAA knows AEW is coming for their talent as soon as they can sign them to AEW
AAA is citizen carny where they will f*** with those talents in every single way they can......preventing them from using their more known names etc I have no doubt when the time comes they are gonna make sure to take the Pentagon gimmick away from Penta if he leaves AAA for AEW full time.
AEW's mindset is probably....keep the working relationship for only enough time to get the talents from AAA they can and get the hell out of the relationship.

As long as it's all about the talent and bullshit doesn't happen I'm down, they have great talent, their management is shit, but hopefully this gives the said talent, better opportunities and money

ECW and WCW got a stream of luchadors through Konnan. This feels like the modern equivalent, only Konnan was more specifically looking out for the interests of those guys.  AAA, well, I have a feeling are less altruistic, but that's their prerogative, I guess. |
