During the May 26 episode of WWE RAW, a graphic displayed for an upcoming match at WWE x AAA: Worlds Collide indicated the AAA Mega Championship would be contested between El Hijo del Vikingo and Chad Gable. This promotional detail has raised questions, as Alberto El Patron is the current AAA Mega Champion.
El Patron is scheduled to defend the AAA Mega Championship against Vikingo on May 31. The advertisement by WWE for the June 7, 2025, event at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles featuring Vikingo challenging Gable for that specific title suggests a potential outcome for the preceding championship bout.
The interaction between Gable and Vikingo escalated on the May 26 WWE RAW. During a Money in the Bank qualifying match, Vikingo interfered, which contributed to Penta securing a victory over Gable and Dragon Lee. This interference directly builds towards their announced encounter.
