The first-ever collaboration between WWE and AAA was a huge success. Many fans were excited to see some of the best luchadors at the AAA event. However, the superstar who garnered the most attention worldwide was Mr. Iguana. His unique wrestling style and hilarious moments with his partner, “La Yesca,” stole the show.
He received massive cheers from fans at both the Kia Forum and Intuit Dome. Mr. Iguana’s incredible rise in popularity led WWE to sell his merchandise online. Now, it looks like the AAA star could debut in WWE very soon. While speaking to Linea Directa TV, Iguana revealed WWE informed him about debuting on the main roster. He would skip NXT entirely, according to the plans discussed.
Talking about his appearance at the Worlds Collide event, he teamed with Octagon Jr. and Aerostar. They faced Lince Dorado, Dragon Lee, and Cruz Del Toro in the match. Mr. Iguana and La Yesca stole the show with incredible high-flying moves. He amazed the fans with his athletic ability throughout the contest. Octagon Jr. won the match by hitting a Powerslam Moonsault on Dorado.
On the latest Raw episode, qualifying matches began for the King and Queen of the Ring tournament. Many fans expect Mr. Iguana to be the mystery participant in the tournament. It will be interesting to see if he appears on the upcoming Monday Night Raw.
Sheamus is all ready to have Mr. Iguana as his opponent for King of the Ring qualifying match
This week’s KOTR qualifying match on Raw includes three of the best strikers in the business. Sheamus will face Bronson Reed, Rusev, and a mystery opponent in a Fatal 4-Way match. Although the mystery opponent hasn’t been revealed yet, The Celtic Warrior shared his preference on social media.
Sheamus took to X and edited an iguana onto the Fatal 4-Way match announcement picture. It looked like he made a significant request to Triple H about adding Mr. Iguana. He even claimed in his post that he would give all his money to make this happen.
There have been many speculations about the mystery opponent. Some fans predicted Ilja Dragunov could return from his 9-month injury absence. Others said Jey Uso might enter the tournament after losing the World Heavyweight Title. Many wanted to see Karrion Kross as the mystery opponent, given his rising popularity.
