Texano’s health status is the lead story on boxylucha.com. He’s in intensive care, on a ventilator, and it doesn’t sound good.
Inside Box Y Lucha #2737
– Cover includes Texano in the hospital and Negro Casas in Japan.
– Novemeber calendar poster is GdA
– The Villanos do an interview where the writer mentions how they haven’t lost a step since leaving CMLL, and the Villanos say they’re doing great and have lots of opportunities – though, you know, if CMLL or a promoter wants to call them for bookings at any time for anything at all, they’d be willing to talk.
– Negro Casas talks about his appearance in NJPW. He got to take his wife with him to Japan.
– Santo talks about LdP. He also wonders why Perro Jr. isn’t involved, but reminds us Perro didn’t want the trophy last time (because he felt the Aguayos > Santos), so perhaps that’s why he wasn’t invited. Decent logic.
– Gran Markus Jr. is on the road back to the ring! Be very afraid. I thought he was out due to heart issues, but here he says it was due to a brain injury, “vein of the cerebellum burst.” He’s better now. He’s been occasionally refereeing (under the name Tony Benetto), but he wants to make a full return to the ring. He’s upset someone is using the Hijo de Gran Markus name and wants them to stop.
Ovaciones has an interview with the new Hombre Sin Nombre. They list him as making his Arena Mexico debut, having been a rudo in northern Mexico, but that may just be a cover story. Showing he’s at least aware of what’s going on, HsN wants to pair up with Atlantis, beat up Mistico, and end Negro Casas’ career. It’s good to have goals.
Best insane guess: Anyone seen Incognito lately? (Dumb question.) It only works if you tell people who he used to be.
I haven’t been tracking Sangre Azteca and Starman in NJ, because I figured they were going to lose a whole lot (and they probably should be losing – they’re definite underdogs at this point), and they’ve been very thorough, losing every match so far. Hope they’re impressing people.

If I’m reading this right, this guy is selling the Santo and Demon comics. For what it’s worth.
