Lucha Libre AAAs premiere on FOX Latin America was supposed to be a landmark momentbut a major production mistake turned it into a viral embarrassment.
During the broadcast, AAA aired a pre-taped video package hyping Dominik Mysterio, who wasnt even on the show. But that wasnt the real problem. The issue? Dominik was shown wearing the AEW World Championship belt thanks to a flawed AI-generated graphic. Thats rightAAA accidentally plastered a rival companys top title on a WWE star during its own debut show on a major network. Bryan Alvarez broke down the gaffe on Wrestling Observer Radio:
Dave Meltzer backed it up with a simple but brutal confirmation, He was wearing an AEW title belt? Yes. The AEW title belt, not the AAA belt.
The moment sparked plenty of confusionand memesonline. Not only was Dominik not booked for the show, but hes currently under WWE contract and has never held AEW gold. For a debut on a major platform like FOX, the error couldnt have come at a worse time.
While AAA hasnt publicly commented on the AI mix-up, it raises serious questions about quality control, especially with tools like AI becoming more common in video production. This wasnt just a graphical hiccupit aired during one of AAAs biggest television milestones, and the mistake showcased a competitors championship front and center.
UPDATE: The video was deleted from the AAA account.
Do you think promotions should be trusting AI for key video packages? Or should companies stick to manual control for major debuts like this? Sound off in the comments.
