5. Super Libre: Averno/Mephisto/Pierroth Jr. beat Atlantis/Blue Panther/Satanico – Averno & Mephisto challenged Atlantis & BP to a CMLL Tag Titles match next week and it was accepted.
There’s like a 2% chance that match makes TV and I’m distraught about it. This idea of Atlantis and Panther finding every non-ancient rudo tag team they can and defending the belts against them delights me though. I’m thinking we’ve got to get something like Olimpico and Violencia next.
Now that I’ve got his index page working again, I’d like to point out Homer’s review of a Best of El Hijo Del Santo tape from last August, which includes some of the matches mentioned in the below DVDVR thread.
Quick note: Lucha Times is updated: normal times – what happened to all the soccer? It’s been a predictable summer, not that I mind.
The one cavate is last week’s Vuelta/Sunday is listed as the wrong show. It was actually #108, and I’ll update that as soon as I get back to the computer where I already did the grunt work. Picking that episode to air is completely out of any semblence of order or logic I can figure, so what I’ve got listed for this Sunday is a complete prediction.
Suggestion if Galavision happens to stumble on this via Google: You guys never aired the following week of TV (#109). Or you could actually air the current stuff, as shockingly relevant that’d be.
I haven’t seen any tape/show listing for #146 and beyond, so that’s all guesses on what’ll air. My hope is someone has the sense to put on one to two complete matches rather than two to three badly clipped ones, but that goes against usual practice.
I may give up recapping if I find out we’re not getting Panther/Atlantis vs GdI. I know, you could hardly tell at this point.
Something to read: There is/was a DVDVR discussion about Casas/Santo matches, with somehow ending up including a “how did AAA split from CMLL and PromoAzteca split from AAA” post.
US Lucha: One of the recent Observers had an update on the Atlanta/Carolina lucha shows, but I don’t have it in front of me right now. If I can remember correctly, they were happy with one of the Carolina shows and not happy with the other, and Atlanta was down but it was a lesser main event. There plan is to run again in October, and they’re thinking about running some shows in the southwest.
