AAA clashes with the traditional style of promotion of lucha libre. Most promotions are based on running the same locations, while AAA tours around the country. AAA's shows are much more storyline driven, more akin to United States wrestling than CMLL. AAA uses many different types of gimmick matches and is believed to be the first promotion to use a six sided ring. AAA focuses on the show being entertaining, rather than just the matches.
AAA airs on Televisa in Mexico, and on Galavision in the United States. It has had other short term television outlets over the years. In 2009 and 2010, AAA Lucha Libre Premier aired on Fox Sports in Mexico.
On March 3, 2015, AAA held a press conference in Mexico City to announce the change of promotion's name. This joined with the big announcement of Rey Mysterio Jr.'s return and the running of first ever Lucha World Cup alongside promotions from both Japan and the United States.

History
Antonio Peña had been one of the primary creative forces for EMLL since starting in the Mexico City office in 1988. This was a very strong period for the company in terms of creating new stars and delivering big matches; the 1990 Rayo de Jalisco Jr. versus Cien Caras, mask versus mask match set an all-time Arena Mexico attendance record. Pena was frequently credited with designing new characters (Misterioso, Volador), creating the modern minis division and modernizing the product. Pena shared creative power with Juan Herrera, who had different views on the direction of the promotion. The two apparently clashed, while building up legions of supportive luchadors. Pena also angered the luchador union when he made a deal with Televisa to air the major show of the week two days later, prime time on Sunday nights. The union went on strike to block it, and forced the shows to air at noon (so as to not air up against live shows.)
Paco Alonso, owner of the company, also feuded with Pena over power in the company and backed Herrera, so it was probably inevitable that Pena would leave the company. The other main promotion at the time, UWA, had it's own share of internal political battles and was even less forward looking than CMLL, so Pena would need a new place.
In fall of 1991, Pena secretly began negotiating with television network Televisa to fund a new lucha libre promotion. Televisa was reportedly unhappy with CMLL, and believed that Pena was the voice CMLL should have been listening to. Televisa would get it's televised lucha libre from Pena, since his wrestlers would not be part of the old union. Pena, and allies Konnan and Octagon, began quietly recruiting luchadors for the new promotion. The news of the new promotion finally slipped out in early April 1992, but all parties continued to work in CMLL fora few more weeks.
The new promotion was announced May 7, 1992 in Mexico City press conference. Pena, along with the wrestlers who were joining him, had quit CMLL two weeks earlier, on April 22. Luchadors at that initial press conference included Fuerza Guerrera, Juventud Guerrera, Octagon, Eslabon Perdido, Hijo del Santo, Perro Aguayo, Justiciero, Angel Azteca, Atila Jr., Cien Caras, Mascara Ano 2000, Universo 2000, Konnan, Blue Panther, Super Bowl, Quarterback, Winners, Inmortal, Reptil, Bleda, Kid Boxer, Picudo, Ice Killer, Dr. Maldad, Mr. Maldad, La Parka, Magnate, Fantasma, and Mascara Sagrada. Most of the mini estrellas also jumped to AAA. Other luchadors jumped from CMLL and UWA the promotion in the following months. Pena also recruited many unknown or barely known independent luchadors, using them for new characters he had designed. The first AAA show took place on May 15, in Veracruz.
