04/09 news: Accion

Not much news; Ovaciones previews today’s Coliseo card and next Friday’s Arena Mexico lineup (giving the photo slot to Dark Angel.)

Accion highlights

CMLL: GdI vs PdM trios match. Hey, Tony Salazar ref’d this match too; is he a new regular for someone? Mr. Aguila got in a low blow heel kick on Tarzan as Damian distracted Tony Salazar.

AAA: the AAA/TNA trios match of all things (Cibernetico, Chessman, Muerte Cibernetia vs “Franky Gerdelm, Scott D’Amore, Border Patrol”). That’s Michael Modest in his one-time TNA get up. They highlight a Chessman clothesline on Modest, Modest low blowing Cibernetico, and Franky low blowing Chessman. I’m sure there’s a point to your top rudo group getting laid out by random people from TNA (including SCOTT D’AMORE AS A WRESTLER), but I fear the concept is “managing something dumber than the UPW match from last Triplemania”.

  1. Careful, you’re gonna piss off the best lucha photographer.:P It was actually Adonis Salazar who was the referee, not Tony Salazar who works in the CMLL offices.

    Rob

  2. I was somewhat shocked a few months back to see Modest/Morgan in that stupid Border Patrol gimmick. Isn’t Modest the same guy who was too good for ROH a few years ago? And now he’s back scrounging for reject WWE-gimmicks on the indy circuit? I remember Modest being a rising star on the west coast along with Christopher Daniels and Samoa Joe. Now it’s like, Mike who?

    And who the hell is Franky Gerdelm? Where were Shark Boy, Buck Quartermain and Kenny King when they were needed?

  3. Oh. Oh. I’m a moron.

    I’m thinking whatever was going down (or failed to go down) with CMLL in the past few weeks caused TNA to send people who aren’t TNA wrestlers; Modest, Gredelm/Kazarian, and then D’Amore to explain the situation.

  4. The heat with Mike Modest and Ring Of Honor started when, according to Modest, he, Donovan Morgan, and Takao Omori were put up together in a hotel room with a single bed, which he took as an insult to all three men. He turned down a date after verbally commiting to it a month before, and was then buried online. It should be noted that he works just about every tour with Misawa’s NOAH promotion in Japan and along with Morgan and Scorpio is one of the main gaijin workers for that promotion.

    Modest, Morgan and Ryan Drago worked on the February 18th edition of “TNA Impact!” as La Migra/Border Patrol, and Morgan and Modest teamed as La Migra on an episode of TNA Xplosion in March against The Naturals.
