History
editIn early 2019, former AAA/CMLL/WWE/TNA luchador (wrestler) Alberto Del Rio "El Patron" posted images of a possible new promotion. On June 11, 2019, Alberto El Patron and Chavo Guerrero Jr. announced the arrival of the promotion entitled "Nación Lucha Libre".[3] Before the first NLL event, there were modifications where they replaced Black Taurus, Laredo Kid, Dr. Wagner Jr., Fénix, Pentagon Jr., Daga, Flamita and Puma King who have an employment relationship with AAA and they appear on TV Azteca, so they cannot appear on another chain where it is not associated with NLL.[4] On July 11, his first event was held in Mexico City in the Sala de Armas Magdalena Mixhuca. It was broadcast on the Mexico channel Imagen TV.[5]
