WWE has one of the longest-running television shows of all time. Over the years, it has been established as one of the largest businesses in the entertainment sector. WWE also recently confirmed their sale to Endeavor, which was quite in the news. When AEW came forward with another major announcement of their new weekly show, AEW Collision, the news caused a major stir in WWE and it might have compelled WWE CEO Nick Khan to make a similar announcement.

Recently, he appeared at MoffettNathanson’s Inaugural Technology, Media, and Telecom Conference, making a claim of probably launching another weekly show. WWE already runs three weekly shows, WWE Monday Night RAW, WWE NXT, and WWE Friday Night SmackDown.

Khan claimed that they have discussed internally a potential Lucha Libre show, directed toward the Hispanic community in the United States. WWE already has several Lucha wrestlers in their arsenal, with Rey Mysterio being one of the greatest among them, and recently relaunched LWO, a popular stable in WCW in the 90s.

WWE recently conducted WWE Backlash 2023 in Puerto Rico which received an impressive reaction from the fans and a crazy hot crowd in San Juan. And, with AEW’s announcement of AEW Collision, Nick Khan might have teased WWE’s next move as well.

He claimed, ” Ideally for us we would go out everyday of the week as long as there is unique product that we put on the air. Something that we think would resonate. Something that we discussed internally, lucha libre in Mexico and Latin America is a big big product.”

Khan further stated how they would be targeting the Hispanic community in the USA with this product. He said, “specially with the growing Hispanic audience in the United States, you would want programming that appeals to Spanish speaking Hispanic and English speaking Hispanic.

With this announcement, WWE fans are now excited for the possible new Lucha Libre show and see how it turns out. The company has also a new NXT Europe show planned, which might start later this year. Although, Tony Khan announced AEW Collision, which will begin on June 17, this WWE news takes some of the attention away from them.
