Canelo Alvarez didn’t just soak up the spotlight at ringside—he took the star power backstage too.

After sending the AAA Guerra de Titanes crowd into a frenzy with his unexpected front-row appearance on December 20, the boxing icon was later seen posing backstage with WWE Hall of Famer The Undertaker in a crossover moment no one saw coming.

Canelo stood side-by-side with the Deadman, both with fists raised, as cameras snapped away. With Canelo repping his hometown of Guadalajara and Taker in his signature all-black look, the moment instantly became one of the night’s most talked-about surprises.

This unannounced meeting took place after Canelo was shown celebrating at ringside alongside lucha legend La Parka following the opening match of the night. The Guadalajara crowd erupted the second Canelo appeared on screen.

With Guerra de Titanes already packed with crossover stars like Rey Mysterio, Dragon Lee, and Dominik Mysterio, Canelo’s presence added even more mainstream attention to AAA’s year-end spectacle. And now, a backstage photo with The Undertaker? That’s a cherry on top.
