How CMLL & AAA Can Both Have Working Relationship With AEW Revealed

It was recently announced that AEW had formed a working relationship with CMLL, which saw lucha libre legend Místico wrestle Rocky Romero on Rampage. However, considering the long-standing rivalry between CMLL and fellow AEW partner AAA, many wondered how this would work.

The Mexican promotions have been ferocious rivals ever since Antonio Peña broke away from CMLL in 1992 to launch AAA in the first place.
