Lucha Times

AAA on Gala: Porky and Scorpio Jr. in a bull terrier match, semifinals of the dream tournament. TNA guys are NEXT week.

What’s great about Galavision is they posted a lot of new articles to thier lucha libre page, and they’re all CMLL or WWE related, neither of which actually airs on the channel at all. (I’m sure the web folks are just making due with what they’re given.)

CAN52/FSE: I think we should be back to mostly Coliseo stuff, but I never actually heard what aired in Mexico on Televisa last week, so I guess anything’s possible. Anyway, intentionally or not, I think we may have a better idea of which of this shows is mejor – the B+ show is the one getting the first Mistico vs unmasked Black Warrior match.

CMLL on FSE is way late (3 AM EST) in the evening due to baseball playoff games, some of which may or may not take place on that day, and I have no idea what that would do to the schedule. I’d suggest taping the normal slot too if you can, just in case.

There’s no lucha libre show listed on the FSE schedule next week. This may be a baseball thing, or it may be something else. Who knows.

PBS: the “Mexico: One Plate At A Time” cooking show on lucha libre looks to be repalying next week – check your local listings.
