Ovaciones is not working when I checked just now, but if I recall correctly, it was just build for the Arena Mexico main event. While Mephisto had a point that he and Avenro do team more often so they should keep the belts, I think there might be something going on with Santo’s status with the company. CMLL was persistent in mentioning that Santo was only going to work specific dates, and he’s not only stuck around a month longer, but he’s also on every Arena Mexico show (which have been also been extended.) I don’t know if this means Santo will be a regular, even after the winter break, but I think it’s a sign CMLL would have no problem bringing him into defend the tag titles sometime in the future. Since they’re CMLL belts, it doesn’t really make a difference if that time is next spring or 2007.

This would be the biggest win of Averno and Mephisto’s career if they pulled it off, and they have no particular momentum going into it. I expect Negro and Casas to win the belts for a third time tonight, but it’s not a complete Universo/Halloween lock.

KrisZ reports Super Parka in jail, having gotten in a fight with her daughter’s boyfriend after the boyfriend got into a fight with his daughter. Super Parka doesn’t think it’s serious, and expects to be out jail in time to make his bookings on Sunday.

Found a link – KrisZ on F4D has Ultimo making the UWA Heavyweight Championship challenge to Wagner. I’m focused on this match because if Dr. Wagner Jr. and Ultimo Guerrero meet in a match in the next 15 days which makes TV (and challenges on Tuesday sometimes turn up a special main events on Sunday), everyone’s gotta to reconsider their Lucha MOTY.

I haven’t gotten back to anyone about GdR DVDs, because I want to make sure I actually get this weekends episode recorded (and don’t know exactly how I’m going to do it – where is that darn VCR remote?) before I start making solid promises. As a quick blanket statement, if you’ve asked so far, I’ll get you the DVDs

Cards and results to finish this out:
