The largest match in AAA since WWE acquired the company last year took place last weekend. El Grande Americano defeated the Original El Grande Americano in a mask versus mask match. This bout, described as an 'instant classic,' occurred on the first night of the Noche de los Grandes event. Many observers questioned why the match was not held at WrestleMania 42 or saved for TripleMania.
\nKonnan, a member of AAA's creative team, discussed the match's placement on his Keepin’ It 100 Podcast. He stated he would have preferred the mask versus mask match to be on TripleMania but noted the company has 'something big' planned for the September show.
\n\n\nI would have put (Mask vs. Mask) on TripleMania, but they’ve got something big for TripleMania.

AAA TripleMania 34 is scheduled to be a two-night event. The first night is set for September 11 in Las Vegas.
\nAAA Mega Championship Match Predicted for TripleMania 34
\nA potential major attraction for TripleMania is a AAA Mega Championship main event between El Grande Americano and Dominik Mysterio. El Grande Americano earned a future shot at Mysterio's championship by winning the Rey de Reyes Tournament in March. With Americano gaining momentum in AAA, a crowning moment at the company's biggest show of the year is considered likely, given the history between the two.
\nChad Gable's Potential AAA Involvement
\nAnother speculated addition to TripleMania 34 is a moment featuring Chad Gable returning to AAA to confront JD McDonagh. Gable has appeared on WWE Raw and SmackDown since his unmasking. He is currently in the process of apologizing to various luchadores on the roster for past disrespect.
\nGable's apologies have been accepted by Rey Fenix, Penta, Dragon Lee, and Rey Mysterio. Mysterio told Gable that he still needs to apologize to others, including those disrespected before Gable wore a mask.
\nGable recently made a save for Rey Mysterio on WWE Raw after Rusev tore off Mysterio's mask, continuing his path toward redemption. Potential future apologies include those to Otis and Akira Tozawa of the Alpha Academy, whom Gable abused after turning heel in 2024.
