Dorian Roldán has put a significant date on the calendar for Lucha Libre AAA following the fallout from Triplemanía 34.

During backstage interviews that aired on the September 19 edition of AAA on FOX, Roldán addressed the circumstances surrounding El Grande Americano’s Mega Championship victory. The finish drew attention because AAA General Manager Rey Mysterio made the decisive three-count. Roldán stated that AAA is investigating what happened and said a “big announcement” will be made on the October 3 episode of AAA on FOX.

The comments leave the status of the situation open heading into that broadcast. Roldán did not reveal what AAA’s investigation has determined, nor did he specify whether the announcement will involve the Mega Championship, El Grande Americano, Rey Mysterio’s role as general manager, or another consequence stemming from the controversial ending.

AAA investigating the Mega Championship finish

The central issue raised by Roldán is the role Mysterio played in the championship decision. As AAA General Manager, Mysterio was the official who delivered the match-ending count that gave El Grande Americano the Mega Championship win. Roldán indicated that the promotion is looking into those events rather than immediately offering a final public ruling.

That distinction is important as AAA moves beyond Triplemanía 34. A disputed title finish can create multiple questions at once: whether the result will stand, whether the official involved acted properly, whether any review of the bout is underway, and whether the champion may be required to answer for the circumstances of the victory. At this stage, AAA has only confirmed through Roldán’s remarks that an investigation is taking place and that more information is planned for October 3.

There has been no announced reversal of the result. Likewise, no match, hearing, disciplinary action, or championship defense connected to the investigation was confirmed in Roldán’s comments. Until AAA makes its promised announcement, the specifics remain uncertain.

Roldán said AAA is investigating Rey Mysterio making the three-count for El Grande Americano’s Mega Championship win and teased a “big announcement” for October 3.

The timing gives AAA a clear next destination for a story that emerged out of one of its biggest events. Triplemanía traditionally carries major weight for the promotion, and any controversy tied to the Mega Championship naturally becomes a central talking point afterward. By directing viewers to the October 3 edition of AAA on FOX, Roldán has ensured that attention will remain on the decision and on Mysterio’s involvement.

What is known ahead of October 3

Roldán’s appearance provided a few concrete points, even as the larger outcome remains undisclosed:

  • El Grande Americano won the Mega Championship at Triplemanía 34.
  • Rey Mysterio, serving as AAA General Manager, made the three-count for that victory.
  • AAA is investigating the situation surrounding the finish.
  • Roldán has promised a major announcement on the October 3 edition of AAA on FOX.

Those facts are enough to make the October 3 program a notable episode for the company. The Mega Championship is at the center of the matter, but the announcement could potentially speak to the broader authority structure within AAA as well. Mysterio’s position as general manager is directly relevant because his count determined the outcome now under review.

However, it would be premature to assume that AAA will strip El Grande Americano of the title, order a rematch, suspend anyone involved, or take any other particular action. Roldán did not disclose the nature of the upcoming announcement. The promotion has presented the matter as unresolved, and its next official statement should clarify what its investigation means for all parties.

Roldán also confirms Marisela Peña Hall of Fame plans

Roldán also used the September 19 interview to reiterate a separate major moment on AAA’s upcoming schedule. He said that his mother, Marisela Peña, will be inducted into the AAA Hall of Fame at Héroes Inmortales on October 24 in Mexico City, Mexico.

The Hall of Fame induction adds another important date to AAA’s fall calendar. While the Mega Championship matter is set for an update on October 3, the October 24 Héroes Inmortales event will include recognition for Peña. Roldán’s remarks connected both developments during a period in which AAA is continuing to shape its post-Triplemanía direction.

The two announcements carry very different tones. The planned Hall of Fame honor is a celebration and has a defined destination: Héroes Inmortales in Mexico City. The Mega Championship situation, meanwhile, remains a live issue with unanswered questions. The October 3 broadcast is expected to provide the next chapter in that story before AAA turns toward the October 24 event.

Why the Rey Mysterio element matters

Mysterio’s involvement makes this more than a routine dispute over a championship finish. The count was not simply an unnoticed moment in the match; it was performed by AAA’s General Manager. Roldán specifically referencing that count while discussing an investigation establishes it as the focal point of the review.

For AAA, the announcement may need to address both the result and the process that produced it. If the company is examining Mysterio’s actions, fans will be looking for clarity on why he made the count and what AAA believes occurred. If the investigation is primarily about the legitimacy of the title change itself, the announcement could instead focus on El Grande Americano’s standing as champion. Roldán has not indicated which direction the promotion will take.

That uncertainty is likely intentional heading into October 3. AAA has provided a reason for viewers to follow the situation without revealing the conclusion. The promotion can now use the next AAA on FOX broadcast to establish whether the Triplemanía 34 decision is final, contested, or subject to a new development.

A key stretch for AAA after Triplemanía 34

The weeks after Triplemanía 34 are shaping up to be consequential for AAA. The company has a Mega Championship controversy under investigation, a promised announcement on October 3, and a Hall of Fame induction planned for October 24. Each development gives AAA a different way to build momentum as it moves through the fall schedule.

For now, the immediate focus is the October 3 edition of AAA on FOX. Roldán’s tease places considerable attention on what AAA will say about the finish that saw El Grande Americano leave Triplemanía 34 with the Mega Championship after Mysterio’s three-count.

Until that announcement is made, the known facts remain limited: AAA is reviewing the situation, El Grande Americano’s victory is the subject of that review, and Mysterio’s role in making the deciding count has been directly identified by Roldán. Any additional implications for the championship or the general manager’s position will have to wait for AAA’s official reveal.

AAA on FOX returns to this issue on October 3, while Héroes Inmortales follows on October 24 in Mexico City, where Marisela Peña is set to enter the AAA Hall of Fame.
