Chavo Guerrero Jr. Re-Signs with WWE to Lead AAA Expansion

During the interview, Chavo explained what made him decide to sign a new deal with WWE, and it involves Lucha Libre AAA. It was in April 2025 that WWE first announced that it had acquired the promotion. For Chavo, it's all about family legacy. His uncle is, of course, the late great Eddie Guerrero, and his father is Chavo Guerrero Sr. That’s just two of a long list of family members of luchadors. Chavo also feels very confident in WWE's role with AAA. He said:

“I just re-signed with WWE. So, I'm helping out with their AAA show. I’m back with them. AAA is awesome, was always awesome. Lucha Libre, you know, that's where my family originated from. So, I have a big love of Lucha Libre and just to see AAA under that WWE umbrella is pretty pretty awesome. Pretty cool. It's one thing that that we want to keep — the tradition of Lucha Libre and keep what makes Lucha so amazing. And then you do that with the WWE marketing and the WWE styles, I think the sky is the limit.” (h/t: WrestlePurists)

Chavo was at the June 7, 2025, AAA x NXT Worlds Collide show, and it was later said that he was a producer for AAA. On September 12, 2025, Guerrero appeared in the ring at Worlds Collide: Las Vegas, holding a banner honoring Eddie's work in AAA.
