Redpilled me on difference between CMLL and AAA in terms of lucha style. I already know that CMLL is sports based presentation and AAA is WWE style. I'm asking term of lucha style of both promotions

CMLL works the old best 2/3 captains fall lucha style. They usually do some technical wrestling to start, then the heels will double and triple team and the faces will make their comeback at some point. You aren't going to see hardcore wrestling but they have started doing a lot more high impact moves than they used to. The matches are rather predictable most of the time as you always know the team who lost the first fall is winning in the second fall and you can often count on a double/triple pin/submission at once.

AAA is a real circus. Every match is one fall. There could be men, women, crossdressers, minis and who knows what else in a match. There's more big spots, there's lots of hardcore wrestling and tons of interference and shenanigans. Every match is also basically no rules.

In a few words, CMLL is a pretty traditionalist promotion, while AAA is a modern style promotion and open to work with other promotions (even rivals)

Triplemania 31 Monterrey was a pretty good and fun show btw.

AAA also raids CMLL for talents occasionally. AAA almost killed CMLL a time or two due to that.

Isn’t CMLL more tag team and trios focused in general or is that Mexican wrestling as a whole

Trios is the most used match, but individual matches are used more regularly now (relampago and regular)
They are even doing 3 way matches for the Universal title

The appeal of CMLL is it's a weekly live event every Friday night in Arena Mexico.

It's a legit tourist attraction so it has to be basic to appeal to casuals

As has been mention CMLL is a more traditional fed. There's lots of trios and a ridiculous number of belts. They regularly get young lions on excursion from New Japan so it's a great promotion to watch if you're into tracking that sort of thing. Personally I think it can get a little repetitive - the matches all play out the same way and 2/3 falls means that every match runs 15-20 minutes longer than it should. Occasionally they'll accidentally do something that's good (see recent Rocky Romero run), but unless they're on a hot streak I rarely put on full shows for something other than background noise and mostly tune in for the well received matches.

AAA has more variety in its matches, but has even more schizo booking than AEW. Teams and feuds will pop up and disappear from show to show. There's a lot more foreign talent in AAA than in CMLL, but personally I feel like all the foreign talent dilutes it so that it feels less like lucha libre and more like mid 2000s TNA.

Both promotions put up free shows on their youtube pages. Both promotions can be woefully bad at building new talent. They both ebb and flow so honestly I'm usually following whichever one is putting on the best shows. Right now personally I feel that both promotions are in bust period at the moment. If I had to pick one it would be CMLL just because AAA seems really dedicated to appealing to a US audience at the expense of its own identity. Plus the foreign talent that thy get just aren't at the caliber of what CMLL gets from New Japan.

I would also recommend subscribing to the IWRG and Mas Luchas youtube pages. Mas Luchas posts stuff from small indie promotions in Mexico so you'll see a lot of different shit on there. I wouldn't call IWRG good, but it's a way to see extremely young talent and the Arena Naucalpan is cozy.

that's the flagship show, right? Like the Monday Night Raw? I know they used to stream it on YouTube every week.
