Brian Cage Explains Absence From AAA Triplemania XXXI

Lucha Libre AAA recently brought the curtain down on their Triplemania XXXI series, with the third and final outing of this year’s mega show taking place on August 12.

One notable absence from the show was that of Brian Cage, with the AAA regular absent for his scheduled appearance in the Latin American Championship four-way bout. Taking to Twitter, ‘The Machine’ explained his absence:

“Well, well, well, I was planning on coming down to Mexico, as I said. Return to Triplemanía in a big way for that Latin American Championship. Getting all my sh*t in, all the spotlight, match of the night, all that stuff I always say. Picking up the scraps between Pentagón (Jr.), Q.T. Marshall, Dralístico, all that jazz.

“Welp, hmm, things don’t always work out the way we want them to and I’m currently in the E.R. right now with inconsiderate patients playing their Instagram videos in the background on full volume. But, it’s okay, I’m still alive, I’m still kicking. But unfortunately, it doesn’t look like I’ll be making my flight or my scheduled matchup for Triplemanía this Saturday which is — I wish I was joking, I wish I was lying, I wish this was part of the plan but unfortunately, it’s not so, yeah, I was booked to be there, I was planning on being there, I was planning on becoming the new champion but, obviously I’m not pulling any strings, this is what it is, this is where I’m at, this is where it’s going so, there’s always next year or hopefully a lot sooner than that. So, either way, at the end of the day, who better? It’s still nobody,” said Cage.

Cage was replaced in the bout by Texano Jr.
