Real Reason Ludwig Kaiser Is Heel in WWE but Babyface in AAA

TLDR

Ludwig Kaiser is currently positioned as a heel in WWE during his feud with Chad Gable, but receives massive babyface reactions when appearing in AAA, including a "Road Warrior-level pop" when he attacked Gable during a recent AAA show. On the March 3, 2026 episode of the Keepin' It 100 podcast, Konnan explained that AAA operates independently from WWE creatively and that fan reactions in Mexico are often influenced by nationalism, stating "What they do on SmackDown and Raw has nothing to do with what we're doing in Mexico."
