Television producer Mark Burnett is brining Mexico's AAA promotion to the United States via the new El Rey television network. "Starting this business with a new television series on a cutting-edge network like El Rey is very exciting," Burnett stated in a press release.

"And it doesn't end there. Wrestling is a billion-dollar business in the U.S., and with partners like Robert Rodriguez, Lucha Libre AAA and the rest of our great team, our new lucha libre league will make that market even bigger." Read more at HollywoodReporter.com

Powell's POV: This project has been in the works for quite some time and will launch in the second half of 2014. The El Rey Network is available on DirecTV, Time Warner, and Comcast. It was launched by Hollywood director Robert Rodriguez. Burnett is the producer behind Survivor, The Apprentice, The Voice, Shark Tank, and other reality televisions. Konnan has teased AAA coming to the United States for a long time now, and it's cool to see it's finally going to happen.
