Ovaciones mini stories for today
– hype for Ramstein vs Explosion (who’s not Explosivo here)
– hype for IWRG’s card tonight, with a mention that Canek has requested a shot at the UWA Heavyweight Championship (again)
– hype for a AAA sponsored MMA card next Saturday
– TripleMania will be on 06/18 (during the World Cup – but Mexico doesn’t play that day) at Toreo de Cuatro Caminos. That is the same day as the TNA PPV. That’s also the weekend Nacho Libre debuts in the US.

Contra Coast Times. (Ex-)indy wrestler accuses Jack Black of stealing his gimmick, demands a match to settle it all. The sun rises in the morning.

Reading for a slow day: stumbled upon a pdf with the rules and regulations of Benito Juarez’s Box Y Lucha comission. I’ve cut down to the lucha specfic parts here. Besides semiuseful stuff I care about (like actual defintions of weight limits!), there’s also rules like

– local titles must be defended at least once 45 days
– you can change your name only once every two years, with permission of the comission
– anyone who loses a mask can reapply for a new mask after three years, with the approval of the comission
– if you are in a title match, you must get the show 4 hours early to weigh in
– you must have your last meal six hours before your match

There’s also a note that the local champions are supposed to be published in the offical papers of the state. I may do some looking this afternoon…

  2. I think that’s saying you can’t have singles matches where one guy is more than 10 kg than the other.

  4. FWIW, based on other stuff I found, I think these rules may be as of 1984. They might have loosened up things since then.

    No one appears to be holding true to that “post the champions” rule, or at least I can’t find it.
