AAA‑WWE talent cross‑promotion

Entities: Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide (AAA) · Lola Vice · Kendal Grey · Damian Priest · World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE)

Overview

In early July 2026, former WWE World Champion Damian Priest made his first appearance on Mexico’s AAA television broadcast, declaring his intent to compete for AAA titles while still holding a WWE Tag Team championship. By late July, AAA’s storyline was used as a bridge for another talent exchange: Lola Vice lost the AAA World Mixed Tag Team Championship and was reported to be slated for a move to WWE SmackDown, where she would join her boyfriend, Damian Priest. The two snapshots illustrate an ongoing pattern of WWE leveraging AAA events and titles to transition wrestlers onto WWE’s main‑roster programming.
