Nicely done. I can’t believe me and you have the same pick to lose though. We are sooooooo fucked.
For those who understand Spanish, they are doing live PBP online tonight on some radio station that can be linked from the Box y Lucha board.
Only thing to add to the Canek/Wagner thing is their feud didn’t just start this summer. They used to be tag partners in the UWA, then on again off again enemies and eventually they took it to the indies. In fact, Canek/Wagner were the initial CMLL Tag Champs, something a lot of people seem to forget. So the history of this feud goes back to at least 198 which is hilarious b/c the lucha experts at the time were saying Canek was on his last legs and should have dropped the hood then.:)
There was something else minor but now I forget… damn… oh right right, the Rayo/Universo CMLL Title tourney finals was actually a triangle match with Cien Caras involved.

Edit: 1989.
198 = Canek’s age.
