PARAMOUNT PICTURES TEAMS UP WITH AAA FOR TRIPLEMANÍA XXIII-MISSION IMPOSSIBLE: ROGUE NATION CROSSOVER CAMPAIGN
HOLLYWOOD, CA — Paramount Pictures and AAA are teaming up to give fans a one-of-a-kind experience live on pay-per-view this Sunday, August 9th with the 23rd Triplemanía event.
Paramount and AAA are collaborating on a unique cross-marketing campaign bringing a Mission: Impossible Rogue Nation theme to Triplemanía. The campaign will showcase the exhilarating experience of one of this summer’s hottest movies in conjunction with wrestling’s hottest pay-per-view of the summer.
“This is a perfect match since the action scenes of this last chapter of Mission: Impossible, no stunt doubles were used. The original actors such as Tom Cruise and Rebecca Ferguson put themselves in danger while taping the action sequences. The same thing occurs with wrestlers who execute incredible acrobatic acts in their matches, risking endangering themselves physically in order to give the best possible performance,” said Brian Pritchett, General Manager of Paramount Pictures Mexico.
“The high octane thrills of Mission: Impossible Rogue Nation are a natural companion to the world of AAA where this Sunday Rey Mysterio Jr. and Alberto El Patro face arguably their most impossible mission to date in their respective matches at Triplemanía. Expect to see some spectacular Mission: Impossible Rogue Nation elements throughout the pay-per-view, as AAA takes brand placement to the next level with Paramount Pictures,” said Court Bauer, Executive Producer of Triplemanía XXIII.
