Okay, now that I’m actually taping the whole show, we’ve got
– women’s trios
– tag team title match
If you see the show on FSE, I’d love to hear what was on it for sure.
(Good luck to India today.)

Not GDR, but Vuelta is airing a replay of yesterday’s AAA TV. If that is going to be the new trend, then that means we are going to get the new show airing three times a week instead of two airings on Saturday afternoon and early Sunday morning with the third airing a few weeks later on Sunday afternoon.
Are they reairing the AAA from yesterday on De Vuelta? I just tuned in and it looks like it.
Didn’t see ryanm2k4’s comment before posting the above.
Galavision is run by monkeys. And not the smart kind.
So, any quick predictions for tonights Torneo?
I’m going with Sangre Azteca. The other contenders (La Mas***ra, Volador, Misterioso) have already had enough breaks and won some tournaments in the past year or so, and there’s nobody else that sticks out. Sangre, for being one of the top guys in this, hasn’t really had any big wins, unless you’re counting that untelevised Torneo about 18 months ago, and imo is about due one.
-Satanico and Emilio can be ruled out immediately for obvious reasons
-Dr X and Virus, as good as they are, are pretty much just treading water in CMLL, floating around doing not-very-much these days
– nobody really cares about HSN and he will be no more soon anyway. His main purpose i think is more to make others look good as opposed to being a star in his own right anyway.
– and i don’t really get the impression that Stuka or Purpura are in line for any great push. They’re kinda a step below the rest of the group.
And as for the big womens match – meh, who gives a shit… :D
In fact, something tells me Stuka definitely won’t win. :D
oops :o
Volador or Misterioso. I do love how they ran the Reyes de Air ciber on a whim, and then have done two random ciberneticos with better lineups since.
Misterioso II over Volador Jr. to win! Which will set up a trios match with them the following week with lots of mask ripping and challenges afterwards. Then they’ll have a singles match going to a draw which will lead to a mask match at the first September Coliseo show.
Oh wait… they only put that much thought into garbage with the women.
I’ll still take Misterioso II to win the Torneo. Maybe over La Mascara to get a shot at the National Welterweight Title.
As usual with Monterrey AAA TV tapings, the guys have busting out insane highspots today:
– Hombre Sin Miedo did a somersault plancha over the ringpost almsot into the crowd!
– Laredo Kid did a springboard huracanrana on Escoria as he was standing on the ramp!
– Rey Cometa nailed a gorgeous springboard tornillo dive.
– The MexPower vs Vipers match had roughly 12 dives including Extreme Tiger horribly blowing a Stardust Press to the outside and smashing his knees into the ground, Crazzy Boy almsot flying into the crowd with a flip plancha through the ropes, Psicosis with a cool running tope over the top, Abismo with a plancha on everyone, dual running somersault planchas by Psic and Lider and finally Crazzy Boy did a moonsault off the balcony except he missed everyone and looked to hurt his head when he fell backwards on the landing.
The Secta vs Fuerza Aerea/Divina(definitely T.D.)/Elegido match could have been so much better but they did *THREE DISQUALIFICATIONS*. First two falls were fake low blows and third was a random DQ for excessive violence. Lame.

FSE had two matches:
Satanico/Sagrado/Volador vs. Damian/Terrible/Aguila
and
Wagner/Lizmark Jr/Bucanero vs. UG/MA2K/Pierroth
Got that confirmed in e-mail (plus an interview with Dark Angel, which is what threw people off.)
Damn… cubs gets another prediction right! He even picked the final two correctly! CMLL booking getting logical or should cubs buy a lottery ticket? And why is Volador Jr. getting pushed lately? 3 weeks of regular TV in a row, plus appearences on the other shows and now a Torneo win. You’d think they were building to him losing his mask or something.
Next week’s weekend shows should be fun. I have a weird feeling based on the photos that the Coliseo segunda is airing on one of those shows. ~HOOLIGAN! back on TV!
I think they should scrap the Reyes Del Aire since if you want a match like that, you just gotta watch La Fuerza Aerea every week.:P j/k (but I’m a Fuerza Aerea kick today)
