WWE has big plans for El Grande Americano

WWE's bet on Ludwig Kaiser as El Grande Americano is starting to pay off. The German wrestler has become a recurring figure in Lucha Libre AAA events, confirming that the company has ambitious plans for his character in Mexican territory.

According to BodySlam.net, everything indicates that the next big step will be a confrontation with El Hijo del Vikingo, one of AAA's top stars. The rivalry has been brewing little by little thanks to Americano's relationship with The Judgment Day, a faction he has been collaborating with in recent weeks.

The connection with Dominik Mysterio's group has already had consequences in WWE, when Americano intervened to help "Dom Dom" retain the Intercontinental title against AJ Styles. This connection is now projected towards Lucha Libre AAA, where the paths of El Grande Americano and El Hijo Del Vikingo seem destined to cross sooner or later.

Expectations grew after what happened at WWE x AAA Worlds Collide, an event that fueled tension between them. With AAA scheduling a new show at the end of the month, many fans believe that could be the perfect stage to witness the first clash between two very different styles.

This move will also determine the future of Dominik Mysterio as AAA Megachampion. With El Hijo del Vikingo setting his sights on El Gran Americano, everything points to Dominik having a new rival. There are rumors that Rey Mysterio could return to fight against his son at some point.
