아 in this case is kind of interjection when the speaker is annoyed or irritated , or surprised. 뭐야? can be interpreted in many ways by the speaker's tone. It can be Interpreted as "What the heck?" , "You what? " "Say what? " And also not a polite form ex) A: "He's getting married" B : 아 뭐야? A : I want to broke up with you B: 아 뭐야?

It's an exclamation to express something u aren't satisfied or be suprised. ex: Who cares? 알 게 뭐야? I wouldn’t know. 알 게 뭐야. Bugger me! ( 아)뭐야~ 놀랐잖아! What are you, psychic all of a sudden? 뭐야~ 갑자기 점쟁이라도 된 거야? http://engdic.daum.net/dicen/search.do?nil_profile=vsearch&nil_src=krdic&q=%EB%AD%90%EC%95%BC

If you didn't know... the literal meaning is "what is". "이게 뭐야?" = "What is this?", is something you will hear a lot as well. 뭐 = What. 야 = Is. (informal/casual) 이게 = This.
