Vikingo vs. Alberto El Patron rematch to headline AAA Triplemania Regia

Ahead of the event taking place this weekend, Lucha Libre AAA held a press conference to finalize the card for Triplemania Regia.

Two new title matches have been added to Sunday’s event in Monterrey. In the main event, El Hijo del Vikingo will put his AAA Mega Championship on the line in a rematch against Alberto El Patron. The TNA X-Division Championship will also be up for grabs at Triplemania Regia with Moose defending in a four-way match against Joe Hendry, El Mesias, and El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr.

Vikingo won the Mega title from El Patron on May 31, becoming champion in time for AAA’s Worlds Collide event with WWE. He made a successful title defense against Chad Gable at that show.

AAA is in the process of being acquired by WWE with the deal expected to be finalized in the third quarter of this year. It remains to be seen whether El Patron — a former WWE World Champion as Alberto Del Rio — will be involved in any crossover to WWE given his past.

An angle took place at today’s press conference where El Patron attacked Vikingo to build up their match.

Moose, Hendry, and Nic & Ryan Nemeth are representing TNA at Sunday’s AAA show. The Nemeths will take part in a four-way match for the AAA Tag Team titles.

There have been no U.S. broadcast plans announced for Triplemania Regia. In Mexico, matches will air on Max and Space.

Here is the announced card:
