05/31 news

AAA recap tonight? Maybe. I watched the first three matches and was getting quite bored, so I’m cut out early.

The opening two matches are from 04/01, so I’m guessing we’ll get the rest of that card (up to and including Vamp’s debut) this weekend.

CMLL (FRI) 05/27 Arena Mexico Results [superlucha]
1) Tiger Blanco, Sombra de Plata b Super Comando, Flecha
2) Okumura, Sangre Azteca, Masada b Ricky Marvin, Misterioso II, Virus
Sangre uses the ropes to help pin Ricky.
3) Lizmark Jr., Black Warrior, Metro b Olimpico, Averno, Mephisto
Mep pulled Lizmark’s mask.
4) Ultimo Guerrero b Dos Caras Jr. [CMLL LH]
Typical quick two falls to set up a long final one. Third fall pin was the “Shocker going for the reinera, Ultimo slips out with an inside cradle” finish
5) Mistico, Negro Casas, Heavy Metal, Universo 2000, Mascara Magica b Hector Garza, Halloween, Damian 666, Tarzan Boy, Terrible [time limit cibernetico match; team with more people at the end wins]
This was odd. Even though it was ‘most men eliminated within the time’, it was still captain’s rules. It was 2-2 when Mistico pinned Hector Garza, but since those two were the captains, the match was over. Not really a fan of those rules, especially when it’s bumped up to the main event.

IWRG (SUN) 05/29 Arena Naucalpan Results [ova, KrisZ]
Card was much different than was previously listed, partly due to moving the IC Trios Tournament final to Thursday.
1) Mr. Libra b Forastero
2) Colt Master & Rey de Corazones b Gato Felix & Rey Estruendo
3) Payasos (Coco Blanco/Coco Rojo/Coco Verde) b Legion Extranjera (American Gigolo/Andy Barrow/Mazada)
4) Cerebro Negro, Dr. Cerebro, Scorpio Jr. DQ Oficiales (Cyborg/Oficial/Polizon)
5) Villanos (III, IV, V) b Black Dragon, Mascara Sagrada, Mr. Niebla
Villanos turned rudos – right before their title match versus the main rudo group. How odd.
