Tony Khan's history of signing massive names has made AEW a professional wrestling juggernaut. The company's current roster consists of stars from every corner of the planet, including Mexico. Luchadors in All Elite Wrestling have been thriving, and hopefully, Khan will keep pushing them.
Reigning Ring of Honor World Champion Bandido is one of the most talented luchadores in All Elite Wrestling. He was once signed to the popular Mexican promotion, CMLL. The promotion recently collaborated with ROH and AEW to produce a show called Martes de Arena Mexico.
This event occurred at Arena Mexico, the same venue where Grand Slam Mexico is scheduled to take place tonight. Martes de Arena Mexico featured several matches. In the main event, Bandido defeated Máscara Dorada via pinfall and retained the ROH World Title.
Interestingly, after the above match, the All Elite Wrestling star spoke on the microphone. He asked his opponent to join the Jacksonville-based company because of the latter's immense talent. Additionally, Bandido said that he is going to convince Tony Khan to sign the reigning CMLL World Trios Champion.
"People, you have one of the best aerial wrestlers in 2025. Mascara Dorada, you are awesome, which is why I demand that you are [sic] part of AEW. All good, I will speak to Tony Khan, but you are for sure coming to AEW. Thank you!" Bandido said. [H/T: Fightful]
