Swerve Strickland to be part of Mega title match at AAA Triplemania Monterrey
AEW star Swerve Strickland will be part of the Mega Championship match at AAA Triplemania Monterrey.
Fite TV lists that the Mega title match at this weekend’s Triplemania event will be El Hijo del Vikingo defending against Strickland, Komander, and Rich Swann. The four-way bout has yet to be officially announced by AAA.
Vikingo has been AAA Mega Champion since December 2021. He retained the title against Komander in a singles match at ROH Supercard of Honor over WrestleMania week.
Vikingo made his AEW debut on an episode of Dynamite in March, losing to Kenny Omega in a non-title match.
In yesterday’s Daily Update, Dave Meltzer noted that Omega wouldn’t be Vikingo’s opponent for Triplemania Monterrey — but AAA hopes that a rematch between Vikingo and Omega will take place at one of their Triplemania shows later this year. AAA has Triplemania events being held in Tijuana this July and in Mexico City this August.
Triplemania Monterrey will be available live via Fite TV. Here’s the full advertised lineup for the event:
- AAA Mega Champion El Hijo del Vikingo defends against Swerve Strickland, Komander, and Rich Swann in a four-way match
- Guerra de Rivalidades tournament: Alberto El Patron & Pentagon Jr. vs. Sam Adonis & Psycho Clown
- Guerra de Rivalidades tournament: Rush & LA Park vs. DMT Azul & Blue Demon Jr.
