sek69 Posted July 1, 2011 Report Posted July 1, 2011 I guess this is a question for KrisZ, but did AAA lose their TV deal? I figured they were being pre-empted for the Gold Cup soccer tournament, but that ended and the show never came back on. Quote
sek69 Posted July 1, 2011 Author Report Posted July 1, 2011 Actually cubsfan may have just posted the answer on his blog. Apparently Galavision wants all HD programming which CMLL offers and AAA does not. Quote
jdw Posted July 1, 2011 Report Posted July 1, 2011 One suspects that AAA will join the HD World shortly. John Quote
KrisZ Posted July 1, 2011 Report Posted July 1, 2011 They have been looking to get rid of AAA for a while now and EMLL being back in the fold helped that cause. Quote
sek69 Posted July 2, 2011 Author Report Posted July 2, 2011 It's a shame, I was really getting into AAA. It's like 90s ECW and the midcard of Nitro had a weird mutant baby. Quote
smkelly Posted July 2, 2011 Report Posted July 2, 2011 That seems like it would be an interesting and awesome show, then. Quote
sek69 Posted July 20, 2011 Author Report Posted July 20, 2011 I was thinking about this the other day, and I remembered when Konnan was on with Dave and Bryan before TripleMania he mentioned AAA planning to tour in the US. When Dave brought up that AAA says they're going to do that all the time and never do, Konnan mentioned there was some kind of deal in place that was about to expire regarding the US rights for AAA. I wonder if that had anything to do with them losing their TV time here as it appears they are still on the air in Mexico. Quote
Tim Evans Posted July 21, 2011 Report Posted July 21, 2011 I guess the rights thing is the fact that LLUSA owns AAA's US rights. Isn't that one of the main reasons Zorro didn't go to TNA? Galavision US has wanted to get rid of AAA for years. The HD thing was the perfect excuse. Quote
