Konnan Shuts Down Concerns WWE Will Water Down AAA Like ECW
May 6, 2025
WWE’s official acquisition of the Mexican lucha libre promotion AAA is seen as a move that can definitely change the course of the business for good. With that said, some people are concerned WWE might water down AAA in a big way, and now Konnan has shot down such concerns.
While speaking on the Keepin’ It 100 podcast, Konnan was asked if he’s concerned that WWE might change AAA and water it down like they did with ECW. Konnan made it clear he’s not worried at all.
Konnan explained that the ECW situation happened during Vince McMahon’s era, and he doesn’t believe Triple H thinks the same way Vince McMahon did. He noted that Vince McMahon was known for trying to destroy his competition, whether it was ECW or WCW.
Konnan believes that Triple H, after spending years backstage learning and being groomed for leadership, paid attention to what the wrestlers and fans liked. Konnan believes the Game likely made a mental note of what not to do if he ever got in charge. Konnan praised Triple H for being open to working with so many people, saying it’s been great for the whole wrestling industry.
“Absolutely not. Plus, the ECW thing was during the Vince era, and you know, Hunter—I don’t believe he thinks like Vince when it comes to that stuff, right? We’ve seen Vince likes to destroy his competition, whether it was ECW or when WCW went there. And Hunter, I think, being in the back all those years while he was learning and being groomed, he heard what the wrestlers liked, what the fans liked, and he probably thought, ‘If I’m ever in charge, I’m going to make sure I don’t do this, this, and this.’ And one of the things that he’s done, which has been great for the whole industry, is working with so many people.”
