New match added to Saturday’s AAA on Fox lineup
Original El Grande Americano will be in action as part of this Saturday’s AAA on Fox TV show, announced on Thursday night.
Americano will take on Octagon Jr. in singles action for the first time ever. Both shared the ring in a four-way Rey de Reyes qualifying match last July.
It will be Americano’s second singles match in AAA while Octagon Jr.’s last AAA TV appearance was in the aforementioned four-way. Americano hadn’t wrestled since the March 16 Raw, but competed against Joaquin Wilde on Thursday’s WWE Main Event.
The match joins the previously announced WWE Intercontinental title match between Penta and El Hijo del Vikingo and Flammer celebrating 1000 days as Reina de Reinas Champion.
The show can be seen on Fox in Latin America and YouTube/Facebook for the rest of the world.
