In a recent interview with Q101 in Chicago this week, All Elite Wrestling President Tony Khan discussed several topics, including the potential of bringing the company to Arena Mexico in Mexico City, Mexico.

“When WCW went out of business, I really got into CMLL for the first time, I needed another wrestling show to watch and it was 2002, and I just started college at University Of Illinois, and I would tape the CMLL shows at my parents house on their DirectTV, and then I would go pick up the tapes.

Speaking of lucha libre and being here in Chicago, The Cubs Fan is a guy who has a great lucha blog, and still does, he’s been doing it for over 20 years, I think 25 years probably and that’s where I learned a lot, because they didn’t have necessarily all the explanations in English of what was happening on the show, so I really would learn a lot about it from him.

I’m so excited to bring Mistico to Chicago next week, it’s Mistico’s AEW Chicago debut next week and I’m so excited for that. I can’t wait eventually to bring AEW for the first-time ever to Mexico. I have never said so, but I will say, sooner or late, it absolutely has to happen. If I could go anywhere in Mexico and work with anyone in Mexico, I would love to go to Arena Mexico and work with CMLL and bring AEW there for the first-time ever.

It would be amazing, and I think Salvador Lutteroth Lomeli would be open to having us there, and if he would have us, it would be an honor to go to Arena Mexico and bring AEW there some time.”
