WrestleMania 41, WWE Acquires AAA | Pollock & Thurston

John Pollock and Brandon Thurston go through the success of WrestleMania 41 as WWE promotes the biggest weekend in its history.

They discuss WWE’s released business metrics, Netflix stats, the reception for the two-night event, Paul Levesque’s speech at the Hall of Fame, and many other topics from Las Vegas.

The major news on Saturday included WWE announcing its acquisition of Lucha Libre AAA, and we are joined by The Cubs Fan from Luchablog to discuss the major ramifications this deal could represent, the details that are known, the many questions following this news, and how it will affect CMLL.

Note: The interview we planned to do with co-CEO of Fillip, Bárbara González Briseño, was cancelled just before the scheduled time. We hope to reschedule.

Plus: Dwayne Johnson on The Pat McAfee Show, WWE Unreal on Netflix, Orlando secures funding for bids, ROH moves dates & more.
