As noted, Alberto Del Rio appeared as Alberto el Patron at last night’s AAA TripleMania event in Mexico and cut a promo with his father Dos Caras, saying WWE is racist. AAA did use the Alberto Del Rio name on a graphic and used his WWE theme song at the end of the segment.
We also noted that Del Rio was confronted and attacked by Konnan’s heel stable before clearing the ring. After the main event, Del Rio made a run-in to attack Perro Aguayo Jr., after Perro had pinned the original Sin Cara after a low blow. Del Rio put Perro in an armbar to end the show.
Regarding Rey Mysterio appearing in a video at the end of the show to tell AAA fans he will see them soon, it was noted by F4Wonline.com that Rey doing something like that while under WWE contract, with AAA facilitating it, is something to watch out for and could develop into a bigger story. Apparently the video that aired after TripleMania with Rey was supposed to be just for the live crowd but part of it was shown on pay-per-view.
Jeff Jarrett was scheduled to work last night’s show also but could not get into the country due to bad weather in Dallas.

Below is the English translation of Alberto Del Rio’s promo at AAA’s TripleMania event in Mexico last night:
“History will mark this day as the day that El Patron returned home. But the truth is, after listening to that grand reception, I don’t think El Patron ever left, because his heart belongs to you, it belongs to Mexico. A lot has been said about why I left, why I came back. Seven years ago I embarked on that dream, that adventure called America. And by suffering, blood, sweat and tears we showed North Americans and the entire world, that when you do things with heart, with passion, with love, and being humble under the eyes of God our Father, dreams do come true.
“Of course it wasn’t easy, and then came a day that the dream turned into a nightmare. Similar to many of you, or if not you, to family members of yours, who have gone to the other side looking for a better life for those that we love, I came across a monster, a monster called racism. Racism doesn’t distinguish sex, race, religion, color, it doesn’t care… if you have money, if you don’t have it.
“But this man that’s standing right here (points at his father Dos Caras), that has given me everything and has made me the person that I am, gave me the biggest gift a father can give his son – honesty and the spirit to triumph. He never lowered his head, so that I could learn to never lower it in front of anyone. I love you, Dad. In the U.S., they might be able to take my job, but they’ll never, ever take away my dignity and my pride. And on this night, my fellow Mexicans, I promise you and God that never again will someone come and disrespect my people, myself and all those that I love – because I am El Patron Alberto and I am Mexican, ladies and gentlemen!”
