Ludwig Kaiser Accuses Chad Gable of “Cultural Disrespect” Over AI Promo

Ludwig Kaiser just turned a parody storyline into a full-blown personal war.

During the February 14 episode of Lucha Libre AAA on FOX, the “original” El Grande Americano — portrayed by Chad Gable — sent in a video message aimed at Kaiser’s El Grande Americano II character. The catch? The Spanish dialogue in the promo was reportedly generated using artificial intelligence.

Kaiser was not amused. Taking to Instagram shortly after the segment aired, Kaiser blasted the use of AI and accused Gable of hiding behind technology instead of speaking directly. What had been storyline jabs about identity theft suddenly shifted into accusations of cultural disrespect.

“What a f*cking lack of respect this is for me and my people. That clown does not speak Spanish, he uses fucking Artificial Intelligence because he does not have the courage a f&cking truthful word. Yet… he dares to raise our flag.”*

He then went after the symbolism of the El Grande Americano gimmick itself, making it clear he sees this as bigger than a character dispute. And then he issued the challenge.

“Chaparro (Original Grande Americano), our flag is not a fcking accessory for a false prophet. That flag is to be respected and defended.”*

“You crossed the line, and when someone crosses the line with us, they pay the prize. For my colors, for my people, and for Mexico, I’ll see you soon. No filters, no fucking A.I., face-to-face. I’ll see you soon.”

The timing matters. The original El Grande Americano has already qualified for the Rey de Reyes tournament final and will compete for a shot at the AAA Mega Championship on March 14. If this keeps escalating, the confrontation may not stay digital for long.

What started as a playful identity angle has now evolved into a heated back-and-forth involving AI technology, cultural pride, and national symbolism — all playing out across WWE and AAA platforms.

Is Ludwig Kaiser right to call out the AI promo, or is this just next-level heel storytelling in 2026? Drop your thoughts in the comments.
