Day: May 6, 2005

Saturday is normal. There’s no Vuelta on the schedule.

Preview of weekend and Friday stuff today Ovaciones today. Not a lot of news.

CMLL: The Arena Mexico lineup article notes CMLL still has plenty of intersting rudos without Shocker and Vampiro, but finds pieces lacking with the tecnico side of the main event – Mistico (staying power?), Wagner (needs a big win) and Park (stagnant.)

Hidalgo: on a 05/05 show, Gronda, Ricky Marvin and Solar beat Super Crazy, Kraken and Medicto (filling in for a no-showing Fuerza). In an undercrd match, Cerebro Negro and Conde 2000 were supposted to take on Avisman and Exotico, except Avisman was no where to be found. Replacing him was – another guy in a Cerebro Negro mask! The original won, and demanded a mask/mask with the imposter.

Wait, Solar? There’s two Solars, right? Or he gets around.

IWRG: Veneno doesn’t want to defend the middleweight title against Black Dragon, thinking he’s way beneath him.

AAA: Konnan vs Vampiro is no DQ, and they’re borrowing the Dreamer/Sandman gimmick of “loser gets caned 10 times.” Also, if Vamprio loses, he’s forced to join LLL and follow Cibernetico.

X-Law: Super Luchas has the poster for the Super Crazy vs ROH’s Austin Aries show on 05/15. Note Crazy’s listed as a new WWE wrestler.
