The wrestling world is buzzing with news that WWE Hall of Fame legend Savio Vega will be making his return to the company for this weekend’s Worlds Collide event. The Puerto Rican icon won’t just be watching from the sidelines – he’s stepping into a key behind-the-scenes role that could shape the entire production.
Savio Vega Takes Producer Role at WWE-AAA Crossover Event
Wrestling Observer’s Dave Meltzer broke the news that Vega has been tapped as a backstage producer for the Los Angeles show on June 7. This marks a significant return for the former WWE superstar, who brings decades of experience to the collaborative effort between WWE and AAA.
The producer role puts Vega in charge of helping coordinate matches and storylines. His extensive background in both companies makes him the perfect bridge between the two wrestling organizations.
Will the WWF Veteran Make an On-Screen Appearance?
While Vega’s producer duties are confirmed, fans are wondering if they’ll see their favorite Puerto Rican wrestler step in front of the cameras. Meltzer addressed this possibility but kept expectations measured:
“I do not know if he will appear before people, but it’s not like he’s (there) interfere or do anything… Well, maybe he will, but, Savio Vega is a producer for the show, so it’s not necessarily that he’s a performer for the show, but he is going to be there. I mean, that’s part is accurate.”
The uncertainty adds an element of surprise to the show. Vega’s presence backstage doesn’t guarantee a cameo, but it certainly opens the door for potential involvement.
Last-Minute Roster Changes Shake Up Card
The Worlds Collide lineup has seen some significant adjustments in recent days. Lince Dorado, who rejoined WWE as a trainer earlier this year, has been officially announced as a replacement performer.
Dorado steps in for Joaquin Wilde, who was unexpectedly pulled from the event. The former Lucha House Party member will team with Dragon Lee and Cruz Del Toro in what promises to be a high-flying encounter.
Six-Man Tag Team Action Highlights International Talent
The trio of Dorado, Dragon Lee, and Cruz Del Toro will face off against AAA’s representatives: Mr Iguana, Aero Star, and Octagon Jr. This match perfectly captures the spirit of Worlds Collide by showcasing the best of both promotions’ lucha libre divisions.
PWInsider originally reported that both Dorado and Vega would be involved in the Los Angeles show. The confirmation of their roles adds credibility to what should be an unforgettable night of international wrestling action.
With Savio Vega pulling strings behind the scenes and potential surprise appearances still on the table, Worlds Collide is shaping up to be much more than just another crossover event. Will we see the return of one of WWE’s most respected veterans, or will his influence be felt purely through his production work? The answer awaits wrestling fans this weekend in Los Angeles.
