CM Punk praised for welcoming AAA wrestlers in WWE, with Dalys la Caribeña highlighting his respectful attitude during her debut appearance at WWE NXT Battleground in Inglewood, California. This recognition comes amid WWE’s partnership with Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide, as more AAA stars prepare to participate in upcoming events.
Dalys Reflects on Her WWE Debut and CM Punk’s Approach
Dalys la Caribeña, a prominent figure in AAA and a former CMLL World Women’s Champion, recently shared her perspective on making her debut with WWE. Speaking in an interview with Mas Lucha, Dalys described a welcoming experience during NXT Battleground last month. She recalled CM Punk personally approaching her and fellow AAA star Chik Tormenta to greet them and make them feel included within the WWE environment. According to a translation by X user LiveDayAndNight, Dalys noted that Punk ensured both she and her colleague felt like equals among established WWE talent.
WWE’s Collaboration with AAA and Future Appearances
The inclusion of Dalys and other AAA stars in WWE programming signals the growing collaboration between WWE and Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide. Dalys, recognized for her accolades in Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) such as the CMLL Japanese Women’s Champion title, represents just one of the several athletes expected to cross over as part of this partnership. The relationship between organizations paves the way for international wrestlers to engage with broader audiences in high-profile WWE settings.
Upcoming Events to Highlight AAA Talent
The forthcoming WWE Worlds Collide premium live event, scheduled at the Kia Forum in Inglewood, California, will feature stars from WWE, AAA, and NXT competing in cross-brand matches. This event offers additional opportunities for wrestlers like Dalys and Chik Tormenta to showcase their skills on a global platform, further solidifying the partnership’s impact on the professional wrestling landscape.
As more AAA talent, including Dalys and others, find footing within WWE programs, ongoing support from respected figures like CM Punk can foster a welcoming culture in the company. If this trend continues, collaborations between major wrestling organizations may reshape talent exchanges and fan experiences for the foreseeable future.
