Mr Iguana has opened up about going viral after WWE x AAA Worlds Collide, revealing the “different world” of his current popularity.
The AAA star teamed with Octagon Jr and Aerostar on the June 7 show, facing WWE’s Dragon Lee, Cruz Del Toro and Lince Dorado.
As previously reported, Mr Iguana became the subject of social media buzz, with fans at Worlds Collide showing their love for the star.
Mr Iguana has now spoken about going viral, his increased social media following and the impact of WWE on his career.
Speaking to Sportskeeda WrestleBinge, Mr Iguana spoke about how amazing it was to get the recognition he’s experiencing, saying:
“It’s astonishing how a special place where you get to do the same thing you’ve been doing 16, 17 years and get all this attention, (it shows) how big and important WWE is, and how many people they reach around the world.
“Now with social media, if you count followers, I had 40,000. After that, right now I have like 200,000. It’s a different world for me, a different vision of what’s happening with me, with AAA being in arenas with 15,000 or 10,000, but now working for a little red dot with 5 million people watching, wow, it’s amazing.”
