TNA News: Current title holder headed to Mexico

TNA and AAA have formed a new talent exchange agreement. The deal has been in the works for months, but it took some time for TNA officials to commit due in part to their trouble past with Konnan, who works for the Mexican promotion.

As part of the agreement, TNA wrestler Hernandez will be working regularly for AAA on their television shows and big events. However, TNA will be his first priority, so he'll continue to appear on TNA television shows and pay-per-views in addition to working for AAA.

Powell's POV: The idea of sending Hernandez to Mexico is a pet project of Dixie Carter, who believes he can become a bigger star to Hispanic viewers if he catches on in AAA. Another hope of TNA officials is that their wrestlers become stars in Mexico and they can secure a better television deal and perhaps tour there in the future.
