Sam Adonis is optimistic about balancing both touring schedules between Lucha Libre AAA and MLW.
On October 7th, Major League Wrestling announced that “The Heartbreaker” would be joining their roster. Set to make his promotion debut at Fightland 2022, Adonis will now juggle obligations between MLW and his current commitments with AAA in Mexico. Most recently appearing at TripleMania XXX, he resides as part of the AAA World Trios Champions. In chatting with The Shining Wizards Podcast, Adonis opened up about balancing his work in both promotions.
“I’m actually very optimistic about it because AAA has a very unusual touring schedule,” he said. “They do generally two to three tv tapings a month, but in my opinion, AAA manages talent better than any other company out there. There’s probably about 60 stars in the AAA locker room. You might only know 5 or 10 of them here in the United States as the ones you see on the American independent scene.
“But if you would go to a AAA wrestling event in Mexico City, or Guadalajara, each one of those wrestlers on the event is a certain portion of that crowd’s favorite wrestler. It doesn’t really feel like there’s mid-card or opening match guys. Everybody has their following. They do a great job at balancing their stars and making sure everybody gets their piece of the pie. So if they’re doing two or three TVs a month, I might be on one or two of them. Right now, living in Pittsburgh, it’s impossible to be on every TV show. I’ve been very blessed to be on a lot of the good ones.
“The fact that Konnan is working with MLW and with AAA, that’s going to be able to bridge the gap. Clearly. they’re on such good terms. When everyone has a date coming up, they’re going to discuss it and know when who needs me and when it’s going to happen, and what’s going to happen. I’m just going to have a date sheet and be where I need to be.”
