Promociones Antonio Peña, S.A. de C.V. d/b/a Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide[3] is a Mexican Lucha Libre (professional wrestling) promotion based in Mexico City, Mexico.

'Attendance, Advisory, and Administration of Spectacles'), the promotion was founded in 1992 when Antonio Peña broke away from Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) to set up a promotion, which allowed him more creative freedom.

In addition to the conventional "squared circle", the promotion occasionally uses a hexagonal wrestling ring and has a reputation for its outlandish gimmicks and characters as well as having developed a more extreme match style in recent years. Over the years, AAA has worked together with several American promotions, while currently having working relationships with other Mexican promotions.
