Kenny Omega has been perhaps the most important star in professional wrestling up through this point in 2021 and he is set for another big match before the year is out. News broke on Tuesday that he and Andrade will face each other at Triplemania XXIX on August 13.

“This belt, the one that represents lucha libre, that you so proudly represent, it’s always going to be around my waist,” Omega said in a video recording. “And you should be thankful. Because not only do I represent lucha libre, but I also represent all pro wrestling. That is not going to change any time soon. Send your best at me, send Andrade. The dream match is going to happen. Andrade vs. Kenny Omega, Triplemania. I’ll see you there.”

Omega has set the wrestling world on fire in 2021 as he is kicked open the proverbial “Forbidden Door” crossing into other promotions while holding the AEW World Heavyweight title. He is currently the AAA Mega Champion and the Impact World Champion, along with the All Elite Title he is held since December of 2020.

Andrade may be considered the hottest free agent in professional wrestling since being released earlier this year. His name is near the top of the list of talented individuals that the WWE has underutilized, and his sudden release came as a surprise to many. The former NXT and United States Champion has yet to compete since leaving the WWE and this will be his biggest match since the release. Andrade called out Omega a few days ago and the idea of this match immediately caught the attention of many in the wrestling industry.

To go along with this match, Deonna Purrazzo will also jump into the AAA ring to put her Impact Women’s title against Faby Apache who will put her AAA Reina de Reinas title on the line. Psycho Clown is also scheduled to compete against Rey Escorpion.
