AAA press release
Perros del Mal press release
The Perros del Mal press release states they will not be doing an Invasion and they will not be coming part of AAA. If we take them at their word, that would just leave the Perros del Mal doing their own match somewhere on the card, and that seems the least of all options. IWRG was smart enough to get themselves treated as equals to AAA, it’d be absurd for the Perros to come in with a match the same importance as the cruiserweight trios. I don’t believe Los Perros.
The Perros explain they can not do an invasion or integrate because they have completely different styles. I guess that’s true. One promotion keeps the same guys on top on every show, builds matches around heel referees and no rules matches (except until the finish, when there are suddenly disqualifications) and has a heavyweight champion no one actually believes is the best guy in the promotion. And the other promotion has X-Fly as champion.
Besides the big questions of who the Perros will work with, there’s also the question of where this leaves Charly Manson., who walked out of a scheduled hair match in AAA last year. If the Perros del Mal continue to run elsewhere, Charly could just keep working those shows, but he probably would have trouble returning to AAA. It’d guess only the top guys are showing up at TripleMania, and the talk about keeping the promotion going is as much to avoid the rest of the crew from freaking out as much as a statement to the fans.
More details are supposed to come today, but we probably won’t know what we need to know (what these guys will actually be doing in AAA) until Sunday night.

Charly should have hooked up with the Alebrije and ex-Vipers guys as soon as they started that angle. He fit that group a lot more than Los Dinamitas.
@ Alfredo: I’ll second that motion. We all know he’s not going to AAA especially after all that has happened, I’d have jumped to CMLL too.
It’s also interesting to note that I believe he is signed with Masked Warriors. Some guys have worldwide exclusives with them while others claim to only be exclusive in the U.S. Then again, I’m not sure they have advertised him as far as I can tell, so maybe he ended up not signing.
You forgot to mention how Latin Lover is also with the PERROS, and he too walked out on AAA.
By the way when do they air that PPV that he’s on?
What time is Triplemania supposed to start? Are luchablog going to do a live chat? Will AAA run long on a Sunday night?
According to PWInsider, Charly Manson is working tonight’s Masked Warriors taping and will be going under the name Charly Malice.
