Savio Vega is officially back in the WWE mix, but dont expect to see him throwing punches in the ring this weekendat least not yet.
In an update to the earlier reports of his involvement in the WWE x AAA: Worlds Collide event, Dave Meltzer confirmed on Wrestling Observer Radio that the Puerto Rican legend is being brought in to work behind the scenes.
The June 7 international crossover event is already stacked with marquee matchups, but Vegas presence now has a clear purpose.
Meltzer made it clear that Vegas return is not meant to be a nostalgia popat least not for now.
Vegas appearance at WWE Backlash 2023 in Puerto Rico was a major moment, especially as he aided Bad Bunny during the San Juan Street Fight against Damian Priest. But this weekends role will mark a different type of returnone that sees Vega helping orchestrate the action from backstage, instead of inside the ropes.
In more behind-the-scenes movement, Hector Moody Jack Melendez has reportedly joined WWEs creative team. The longtime Puerto Rican wrestling figure is expected to assist in developing the ongoing WWE-AAA collaborative storyline structure.
WWE x AAA: Worlds Collide is set for Saturday, June 7, at the Kia Forum in Inglewood, California. The event will be broadcast live, with Ringside News providing full play-by-play coverage and any breaking news before the bell rings.
Savio Vegas new role shows WWEs serious about blending legacy talent with its cross-promotional strategy. And while fans may want to see him lace up his boots one more time, this gig proves hes just as valuable behind the curtain.
