June 13, 2007 Wrestling Observer Newsletter: AAA Triplemania XV card, WWE PPV business struggles

AAA announced the line-up for one of the biggest events in its history, “TripleMania XV: The New Era,” on 7/15 at El Toreo de Cuatro Caminos in Naucalpan, which will be set up for a 17,000-seat capacity with the big stage in place.

This is the show that they have been looking to get Hulk Hogan on. Hogan turned it down, but according to those close to the situation, it is not completely dead today. The main event was announced as La Parka & Latin Lover & Zorro & ? vs. Paul Wight (Big Show) & Sabu & Head Hunter A & Ron Killings, with Amy “Lita” Dumas managing the heel side. While there are intermediaries working on Show appearing, Show has said that he has no more interest in doing pro wrestling (if Hogan got something started, he would probably be with it but otherwise he’s turned down every offer) and his goals are elsewhere. At this writing, he is not confirmed for the show.
