Televisa Deportes news reported last night that AAA rudo announcer Arturo Rivera will be returning to CMLL, starting tonight. AAA’s commentary appears to be taped live at the event, so he’ll be on both television for a month. Not sure how this will end up effecting everyone else.
This tonight’s Arena Mexico card, in case you forgot.
CMLL (FRI) 10/27 Arena Mexico
1) Mini Fantasy, Shockercito vs Mini Damian 666, Mini Halloween
2) Fabian el Gitano, Leono, Texano Jr. vs Hombre sin Nombre, Okumura, Sangre Azteca
3) Blue Panther, Dr. Wagner Jr., La Mascara vs Damian 666, Halloween, Mr. Aguila
4) Felino, Heavy Metal, Negro Casas vs Averno, Hirooki Goto, Mephisto
5) Rey Bucanero, Shocker, Universo 2000 vs Hijo de Lizmark, Kenzo Suzuki, Marco Corelone [ri]
Ovaciones’s preview suggests a double turn – Shocker going tecnico (which they started towards but seemed to put the brakes on) and Lizmark Jr. going rudo (which is completely random.)
The Notimex preview focuses on Bucanero & Shocker teaming up, seeing as how Shocker took Rey’s mask. Looking at the match, those are the two guys I’d look forward to fighting above others – too bad they can’t.
Cibernetico is listed as working a show in Zocalo today, but I believe that’s a typo and it’s Muerte.
indy (FRI) 10/27 Arena Mexico San Luis Potosi Lineup
2) Sombra del Misterio vs Leopardo [bull terrier]
3) Super Light, Goblin, Brujo Cosmico Jr. vs Sabu Jr., Black Fantasy, Fuerza Maligna [lumberjack strap]
4) Rayo de Plata Jr., Muerte Sagrada, Lover Boy, Cabllero de Oro vs El Mesnajero, Tiger del Ring, Cazador, Cholo Mayor
After running agianst each other, now the two SLP shows are doing an invasion angle.
MBLW (FRI) 10/27 Arena Coliseo San Luis Potosi Lineup
1) Principe del Misterio, Nino Sin Amor vs Galeon, Sepulturero
2) Bogar, Sanguinario, Gavilan Jr. vs Principe del Futuro, Furia Azul Jr., Tigre Dragon
3) Apolo Star vs Malingo [AMERICAS WELTER]
4) Tigre Metalico, Coascao, Astro Boy vs Nitro, Gigante Warrior, Apache Blanco
And now Arenna Coliseo SLP has CMLL guys, so I’m thinking there was some backstage drama last week? I dunno. Anyway, that’s a match for a new title, I believe.
Hijo del Santo crashed a fashion show. (thanks to mikeinformer)
Ex-IWRG wrestler the Hornet is back in Canada.
An article in El Universal talks about Santo movies as cutting edge (for the time.)
