03/07 news: Aficion preview, Super Lucha cover

Ovaciones previews the Coliseo and Aficion cards today. They point out the oddness of the Aficion card:

CMLL (TUE) 03/07 Arena Aficion
1) Astro Boy, Kid Tiger vs Leon Guerrero, Skandalo
2) Chris Hero, Claudio Catagnoli vs Batman, Skayde
Claudio is still listed as a North American!
3) Rey Bucanero, Titan vs Black Warrior, Exotico
Warrior’s now a rudo, but he’s teaming with tecnico ‘Exotico’ – it’s going to be a long night for him.
4) Dr. Wagner Jr., Silver King vs Mascara Ano 2000, Universo 2000
Silver King was a rudo here when he was working as Black Tiger, but I think they’ll forget that.

The note on Arena Coliseo show points out it’s La Mascara’s first main event.

This Sunday’s Arena Solidaridad will be a Texano Sr. tribute, with Texano Jr. and Santo on the card.

The newest Super Lucha (#151) cover has made it’s way on the boards:

You may not be able to make it out at that size, but Juvi’s wearing a Captain Charisma t-shirt. It’s kinda a in-joke and kinda Juvi being Juvi; according to the WON, he called Christian and tried sucking and playing off a non-existent friendship up to get a shot in TNA.

Box Y Lucha’s main site appears to be down, while the forum is still up. Maybe they’re doing a redesign?

A little more later.
