'''When Worlds Collide''' ('''''Cuando Los Mundos Chocan''''' in [[Spanish language|Spanish]]) was a legendary [[professional wrestling]] show held on [[November 6]], [[1994]] in [[Los Angeles, California]]. It was presented by the [[Mexican]] [[lucha libre]] company [[Asistencia Asesoría y Administración]] (AAA) and promoted in conjunction with [[World Championship Wrestling]] (WCW). WCW Executive Vice-President [[Eric Bischoff]] had helped AAA secure a show on [[United States|American]] pay-per-view television, and AAA did not disappoint, staging a show considered by many to be one of the greatest in the history of pro wrestling. Many wrestling fans see this show as the event that first introduced the high-flying Mexican lucha libre style of pro wrestling to American audiences.
'''When Worlds Collide''' ('''''Cuando Los Mundos Chocan''''') is AAA's only US PPV to date. It was co-promted by [[WCW]], which helped get it on the PPV, and by [[IWC]], which promoted AAA's US events.


When Worlds Collide drew 13,000 fans to the [[Los Angeles Memorial Sports Arena]], paying a gate of $202,000. The show was broadcast in both [[English]] and [[Spanish]]. [[Chris Cruise]] and [[Mike Tenay]] called the action in English, while [[Arturo Rivera]] and [[Andres Maronas]] handled the Spanish announcing duties.
When Worlds Collide is most remembered for it's semimain event, a double hair versus mask match between the rudo [[Los Gringos Locos]] team of [[Art Barr]] & [[Eddie Guerrero]] and tecnicos [[Octagon]] & [[El Hijo Del Santo]]. The match, ultimately won by Octagon and Santo, with a little help from cornerman [[Blue Panther]], was one of the greatest matches of the era and one the most famous due to it's US avaliblity.
