Talk to Metro

Now that Box Y Lucha’s working for me, I can tell you they have a chat with Metro at 2pm today. Ask him where his push went! Ask him how he feels about Sexy Boy taking his spot in the Strippers Trio! Ask him if Mil’s mad he’s wearing a similiar mask!

I know I should have something better to do than particpate in that, but we’ll see.

Update: You’re missing even less than the nothing I was expecting, because Metro’s late. I think he might be stuck in traffic, which would be astoundingly great. They’re trying to reach him on his cell.

He’s HERE. They’ve got a exciting webcam of Metro using a computer at http://www.boxylucha.com/webcam/

Quick Notes: I’ve been paying slight attention to it, but it’s dragging on and I’m about to take off, so here’s what I got.

– Maximo hopes to be champion in the next year.
– He’s also working as a weightlifting instructor at a gym.
– He was a Mr. Mexico Juvinile (bodybuilding) champion in ’84. He’s older than I figured. He says he’s been in sports ten years, and started out playing (US-style) football.
– Metro’s original trainer was Blue Demon. Now he’s working with Tony Salazar. He’s been wrestling for two years, and he figures his main rival is Hector Garza. Or maybe that’s just his dream match. He’s trying to get better.
– He danced around being Fabian el Gitano previously. Many of the chatters were obssessed upon this point.
– He’s still working on getting a trio started with himself, Bronco and Texano Jr., but they need to be booked as a trio by CMLL to actually get it over.
– He’s got the same basic aspirations as most undercard lucha guys – get better, wrestle internationally.
* I asked him who’d he likes watching the most – he says the Rock and Mil Mascaras. (HENCE THE MASK. Okay maybe not) Who doesn’t want to be the Rock?
* I asked him what he thought about Atlantis’ action – Metro thought Atlantis was great as a tecnico or a rudo
– Metro’s picking GdI over Nakamura/Tanahashi.

There’s not a lot of interesting things to ask Metro – he hasn’t been around long, he hasn’t done much, and previous gimmick stuff was not going to be acknowledged.
