It is unknown when TripleMania will take place, but AAA CEO Dorian Roldan says the promotion is hoping to run the event in December, pending Arena Ciudad de Mexico health conditions. The health code will need to drop from orange to at least yellow or the government will need to sign off on the show.
TripleMania 28 is set to be a seven-match card and they are still working on a TV deal. The show will be postponed if necessary.
Fightful will continue to update fans on the status of TripleMania as more is known.
