2) Turbo b X-Fly and Shiryu Dragon and Akuma and Flash and ?

4) Extreme Tiger b Mortiz
5) ? & ?? b ??? & ????
6) Flash II & Tropico b Kaos & Aaron Aguilra
7) Ron Killings b Bobby Lee Jr.
8) Vampiro b X-Pac
Lots of crowd brawling. According the report, Vampiro won by side slamming X-Pac onto a barbed wire board which exploded.

The Wrestling Observer Hall of Fame lucha-related inducetes are Eddie Guerrero and … hmmm, no, no one else lucha related. BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. (Aja Kong also won induction and did wrestle in Mexico at one point.)

noteworthy percentages, from this thread which is getting it from another board’s thread I’m too lazy too look up now.

Name % Change from 2005
Eddy Guerrero 69% +39
Paco Alonso 57% NC
Dr Wagner Sr. 56% +4
Konnan 55% +44
Villano III 49% -1
Blue Panther 26% -4
Jose Lothario 17% +6
Chris Jericho 12% +2

60% is the cut off, so a few people were awful close. I’m missing the case for Paco Alonso and need someone to explain to me. That’s much higher than I was expecting. Konnan sure got better this year.

AAA updated their website on Friday around 6:30 (so a few hours before Shocker showed up in Arena Mexico – his profile is still there as of Saturday night), to hype Verano de Escandalo (Summer Scandal, their next big show.) The big news it the VdE lineup, including the promised TNA wrestlers

AAA TV (SUN) 09/17 Arena Cuatro Caminos de Nuevo Laredo Lineup
1) Cinthia Moreno, El Elegido, Mascara Sagrada, Pimpinela vs La Diabolica, Mini Abismo Negro, Pirata Morgan, Polvo de Estrellas
2) Laredo Kid vs Kaoma Jr. vs El Apache [dream, toreno, final]
3) Crazy Boy, Joe Lider, Juventud Guerrera, Psicosis II vs AJ Styles, Homicide, Low-Ki, Ron Killings vs Chessman, Cuervo, Ozz, Scoria vs ?, Abismo Negro, Electroshock, Histeria
4) Intocable, Oriental, Super Porky, Zorro vs Alan Stone, Scorpio Jr., Shocker, Zumbido
5) Estrellita, Tiffany vs Chrity Hemme, Traci Brooks
6) ??, La Parka Jr., Octagon vs Abyss, Jeff Jarrett, Konnan

Obviously, there are changes to be made. Who knows what’ll be come of the 4th match with Shocker gone (and strong rumors that Zumbido is to follow.) The ? in the 3rd match is Extreme Tiger’s old spot, so the mystery there is probably one to them as well. The main event mystery is a tease of a jump, but they probably don’t have anyone set for that spot. Though Laredo Kid is in that three way match, it’s odd not to see all of Fuerza Aerea on this card, given how hard they’ve been pushed.

AAA’s also updated their history for this event.

Accion highglights with Dr. Morales
CMLL: main event trios, showcasing Shocekr’s turn. Panther did TWO dives. Wagner is wearing Olimico style gear, but got lifted up tby the seconds fora a top rope Aguayo double stomp, that’s the end of him.
AAA: The Atomicso match for the belts between the Mexipowers and the Black Family. I’m not sure if I was following things right, but there seemed to a momentary issue between Chessman and the rest of his team. Spots spots carefully talking their way thru spots. La Secta wins clean.

Luchas 2000 has a cover of Shocker in his new Perros shirt, and the debut of a couple second generation wrestlers. Super Luchas has a set of pictures of how it happened., and Super Luchas Graphico has a big photo of Hulk Hogan at SummerSlam.

The poster for the Ultimo Dragon Gym show on 09/10 is circulating. (front, back)

Ovaciones bit I forget – el Hijo del Diablo is selling a music CD. Of him singing. I have not found this on Soulseek yet.
