It had already been announced that Impact Wrestling and the
Mexican promotion AAA had a working agreement but no one knew what that meant.
We now know that the promotions will exchange talent. The deal will have
wrestlers from AAA work Impact's Slammiversary pay-per-view on July 2nd and
wrestlers from Impact will appear at Triplemania XXV on August 26th. Impact will
send Bobby Lashley, Eddie Edwards, Davey Richards, and Moose to work the show in
Mexico. One of the Impact titles will be defended at the show. At the press
conference announcing the deal Jeff Jarrett told reporters that the AAA
wrestlers appearing at Slammiversary haven't been decided on yet. The deal will
have the two promotions run co-branded live tours in the fall. Since Anthem
Sports & Entertainment took over the company, Impact has struck a deal to
partner with ITV on the World of Sport revival in the UK and signed working
agreements with Pro Wrestling NOAH in Japan and the Mexican promotion The Crash. |
