Andrea Bazarte has officially returned to AAA.<\/p>\n

This week\u2019s edition of Lucha Libre AAA on FOX opened with AAA General Manager Rey Mysterio addressing the group. Mysterio then invited former AAA interviewer and correspondent Andrea Bazarte to the ring for a special announcement.<\/p>\n

Mysterio presented Bazarte with a brand new contract, explaining that it was essentially the identical agreement she previously had, but with increased pay to make up for the hardships she endured due to Chad Gable, the unique El Grande Americano.<\/p>\n

Bazarte\u2019s departure stemmed from the El Grande Americano storyline. Ahead of the Mask vs. Mask showdown between the unique El Grande Americano and Ludwig Kaiser at AAA Noches de Los Grandes, Gable demanded that Bazarte \u2014 Kaiser\u2019s real-life girlfriend \u2014 be fired from AAA as a condition for granting the match. Bazarte agreed to the sacrifice so Kaiser could get the chance, and he or she later became involved within the Mask vs. Mask encounter.<\/p>\n

With those events now behind her, Bazarte happily accepted Rey Mysterio\u2019s contract offer, officially marking her return to AAA.<\/p>\n

A brand new AAA Latin American Champion will likely be crowned following El Hijo del Vikingo\u2019s knee injury.<\/p>\n

After Vikingo was forced to vacate the AAA Latin American Championship on account of a knee injury that required surgery, AAA General Manager Rey Mysterio announced that the vacant title will likely be decided in a four-way match at TripleMan\u00eda 34.<\/p>\n

This 12 months\u2019s TripleMan\u00eda will happen across two nights, with the primary event scheduled for September 11 on the Luxor Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada, and the second on September 13 at Arena CDMX in Mexico City.<\/p>\n

The qualifying matches began during this week\u2019s edition of AAA on FOX. El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr. became the primary wrestler to secure a spot within the championship bout by defeating Abismo Negro and Texano Jr. in a Triple Threat match.<\/p>\n

The victory also carries added significance, as El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr.\u2019s father, Dr. Wagner, was the inaugural AAA Latin American Champion.<\/p>\n

You’ll be able to take a look at the remaining qualifying matches below:<\/p>\n

* La Parka vs. Mecha Wolf vs. Dragon Lee
* El Fiscal vs. Cruz Del Toro vs. Psycho Clown
* Omos vs. Damian Priest vs. Galeno<\/p>\n

Octag\u00f3n Jr. is facing a lengthy recovery.<\/p>\n

The AAA star has been sidelined since May after suffering a daunting injury during a Lucha Libre AAA match. While competing, Octag\u00f3n Jr. took a top-rope swinging DDT and landed directly on his head, forcing medical personnel to position him on a stretcher and transport him to the back.<\/p>\n

During this week\u2019s edition of AAA on FOX, AAA General Manager Rey Mysterio shared an update on Octag\u00f3n Jr.\u2019s condition. Mysterio confirmed that the previous AAA Latin American Champion sustained a neck injury and said the luchador has an intensive rehabilitation process ahead of him before he can return to the ring.<\/p>\n

In June, Octag\u00f3n Jr. addressed fans on social media, commenting publicly on the injury and his road to recovery. He wrote,<\/p>\n

\u201cTHANK YOU VERY MUCH! \ud83d\ude4f\ud83c\udffb\ud83d\ude4c\ud83c\udffb\ud83e\udd79<\/strong><\/em>
To @luchalibreaaa @wwe all of the fans, friends, fighters and all of the staff who’ve been maintaining with the situation I actually have been living and who’ve shown me their support in its entirety on this episode of my life, I need to present a really special thanks to Doctor Orozco who was watching over my day, afternoon, night and his team who from the very starting treated me as if I were his son.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

And thanks a lot to the family that has been on the foot of the canyon and I feel so blessed to have the love and support of my wife who doesn’t hesitate to take the primary flight to be with me seeing that this was very bad..<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Thanks God for this chance, I’ll come back stronger than ever.\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Dominik Mysterio and El Grande Americano are set to hitch forces in AAA.<\/p>\n

Starting on July 25, Lucha Libre AAA will launch its three-week Verano de Esc\u00e1ndalo event. It has been announced that AAA Mega Champion Dominik Mysterio and El Grande Americano will team up against two members of Perros del Mal, with Daga, Bronco Nima, Karmen Petrovic, Berto, and Angel among the many possible participants.<\/p>\n

Laredo Kid and La Hiedra earned a chance on the AAA World Mixed Tag Team Championship by defeating Joaquin Wilde and Faby Apache, securing a title match against reigning champions Lola Vice and Mr. Iguana.<\/p>\n
