AAA star Mr. Iguana took the world by storm on Saturday at WWE Worlds Collide.
In the opening contest of WWE Worlds Collide, Mr. Iguana teamed up with Octagón Jr. and Aero Star to defeat Lince Dorado, Dragon Lee, and Cruz Del Toro. However, the match itself wasn’t the story. His reaction from the WWE Universe was, and it caught the attention of those backstage.
According to Fightful’s Sean Ross Sapp (via Fightful Select), Iguana’s reaction didn’t go unnoticed by those backstage. The decision was quickly made to bring him to the Intuit Dome later that night for Money in the Bank.
Mr. Iguana got another huge response from the WWE Universe as he sat in the crowd for the Money in the Bank premium live event. A source within NXT informed Sapp that they would be pushing for him to appear on Tuesday nights in the future.
Iguana also impressed higher-ups at WWE, informing Sapp that he was a pleasure to deal with.
It’s worth noting that in addition to his reaction, his t-shirt on WWEShop reportedly sold very well too. The company is already making plans to potentially produce iguana puppets.
