Questions for those who might know?
Which guy in this photo group is the Matrix we’re looking for? And this Apocalipsis is the NGX one who has no relation to the CMLL one, right?

08/01 news

Okay, so the AAA results differ depending on what report you read, Ovaciones only posted the top three matches from Sunday’s show, and IWRG only has results from Thursday, so I’m going to give all those a day to sit and figure them out tomorrow.

5) Lizmark Jr. vs Tarzan Boy

AAA (WED) 08/03 Auditorio Teopanzolco, Cuernavaca Lineup [o’campo]

2) Esterllita & Lola Gonzalez vs Tiffany & Martha Villalobos
3) Los Kumbia Kids vs La Black Family
4) Psicosis vs Histeria [MEX MW]

Weird arrangement. I think they’re heading towards “AAA vs LLL vs Recent Jumps”, but who knows.

Also on Wednesday, n Acapulco, Mistico teams up with Hijo del Fantasma and Skayde to take on Ultimo Guerrero, Negro Navarro, Hiromi Horiguchi.

I guess things won’t go well when they team?

Also Thursday, in Cuernavaca, Dr. Wagner teams up with Mistico to take on Ultimo and Rey.

CONTRERAS (FRI) 08/05 Arena San Juan Pantitlan Lineup [O’Campo]
No idea who the promoter is, but the lineup is wacky.
1) Miserable vs Infinito vs Rey del Espacio vs Ricky Ricon [BULL TERRIER]
2) Raegge Boy I vs Raegge Boy II [hair/hair]
3) Octagoncito & La Parkita vs Los Payasitos
That’s fab. The only thing which could be better than minis are mini clowns!
4) Sexy Piscis vs Sexy Fracis vs Pimpinela Escarlata
5) Alan Stone, ???, ??? vs Pirta Morgan, Ghefar, ???

CMLL (FRI) 08/05 Arena Mexico Lineup [O’Campo]

4) Negro Casas, Heavy Metal, Felino vs GdI (Ultimo, Rey, Olimpico)
5) Hijo del Perro Aguayo, Hector Garza, Tarzan Boy vs Pierroth, Halloween, Damian 666
Now, this is odd, because the last time we saw FdT, these six guys were all on the same side. Pierroth’s turned since, but their appearance opposing Perro is new. Also, in means the Perro del Mal faction is basically the Trios champs, Perro, and maybe Blue Demon, and we were already calling that group Furio de Norte.

1) Molotov & Zetta vs Vaquero & Zayco

In Guadalajara, Mistico, Lizmark and Blue Panther team up to face Ultimo, Tarzan, Olimpico.

IWRG (SUN) 08/09 Arena Naucalpan Lineup [O’Campo]
1) Antaris & Panterita vs Los Faorasteros I & II
2) Gallo Tapado Jr., Rey de Corazones, Aquiles vs Magnifico, Fantasma de la Opera, Super Colt
3) Cyborg vs ??? [IWRG MW]
4) Batman, Star BOY, Tony Rivera, Marco Rivera vs Scorpio Jr., Black Pentagon, Dr. Cerebro, American Gigolo
5) ??? vs ???
not exactly the most appealing main event.

Someone named “Neito de Black Shadow” is popping up on listings this week. I don’t know if he was introduced at the Black Shadow card (which I also should grab results for), but that’d be my guess.

Super Lucha’s cover is all Mistico.

Box Y Lucha #2725 is up – relatively speedy! Inside:
– Interview with Dorel Dixon, who’s retired and living in Puebla
– Ultimo Guerrero on his trip to Japan. He says he’s returning in September, but does not know yet if it’ll be mask for mask.
– an essay on ‘blood’ in wrestling.
– Interview with Gallo Tapado Jr. He hopes to make it to CMLL in ’06.
– an article alleging rudo announcer Leobardo Magada is angry that Que Monito chose Maximo over him. Must’ve been a slow day, because the next one is an interview with a Monterrey ref.
– Zumbido on his first match.
