late night lucha lodown

Because I care about you all, I selflessly stayed up to 2AM CST to find out what lucha would air this week. (Actually, the USC/Fresno game finished up at 1:30, and I figured I might as well kill another half hour.)

This looks ODDLY like an infomericial – the one for a truckload of Mexican movie DVDs. There’s some horrible lighting in a couple of the ad spots. Might as well kill some time freshening up the rosters; you look now, you’ll see I’ve finally made the correct side the trios champions. So much time to kill, I remember to steal a better Polvora picture from this week’s Halcon.

Now it’s about 10 after, and my hopes of this just being a short overrun are kinda shot. As I’d like to do both this blue screen and this badly lit shot of a women holding a cowboy hat. Don’t shoot the lady, though. She can stay.

12 after the hour, and they are done! Yay. Gave up hope too soon. Normal ads, normal ads, too many ads. Comcast ad with screwed up low volume, way to go Comcast.

CMLL! CMLL! Probably a rerun! I just recalled when I was righting the opner up there that’s what they’ve done the last few times. Yep, it is.

CMLL #184 – taped 03/18/05 – aired 08/20/05
Hooligan/Veneno/Arkangel vs Blanco/Chris/Metalico [coliseo]
Felino/Volador/Safari vs Dr. X/Nitro/Sangre Azteca
Wagner/Shocker/Mistico vs Ultimo/Tarzan/Hector
Aguayo Sr./Aguayo Jr. vs Cien/MY2K [hair/hair vs hair/hair]

I have no idea why this episode. Fits no pattern. Maybe someone really digs Perro Sr.

So, anyway, if you taped this, you got an old epsiode, and you probably missed the end of main event unless you planned for a huge overrun. Which should be fine, since this is the fourth time it’s been shown now.

I should have a recap or more up tommorow evening.
