Lucha libre star Atlantis Jr. spoke with Fightful on a number of topics, including how he wants to face ROH World Television Champion Brian Cage in a rematch in Mexico for the title he previously held.
Atlantis Jr. said, “It was a very good experience and a moment that I won’t forget. I’m a champion in Mexico, but I wanted to have a United States Champion. Now that CMLL has that audience with MLW and AEW, I wanted to have an important match. I went to the United States and said, ‘Can I have a title match?’ CMLL and AEW said, ‘Okay. If you are prepared, you can have a match.’ I challenged Kyle Fletcher for the TV Title in Mexico City. I won. If you watch my match, my face was like, [surprised look]. I won the title and now wrestlers come to Mexico or I go to the United States to defend it. It’s a moment I will never forget. I had matches with superstars of AEW and Ring of Honor. I lost the title to a superstar in Brian Cage. I want to rematch in Mexico. If I win the title in Mexico, it’s the Mexican Title now. I want to bring another title to Mexico City. If AEW gives me another opportunity for a tag team or an AEW championship, I’d be very happy. I want to approach that audience because I want to grow every day.”
