11/12: Accion, CMLL notes

The clips on Accion didn’t air till almost the end of the show this week. Usually, they’re in the first 10 minutes. On the upside, I got to see the commercial for the variety show with Abismo Negro.

CMLL: Volador/Dos/Wagner vs Ultimo/Atlantis/Tarzan. Wagner’s dive got profiled. Volador and Dos were wearing matching tights, which is a great sign for Volador Jr. (Actually, the way Dos seems aced out of things, maybe it’s more equal footing than you’d think.)

AAA: no lineup list here, but it looks like the semimain from 10/20 (Brazo de Plata Jr., Elegido, Intocable, Oriental b Alan Stone, Chris Stone, Scorpio Jr., Zumbido). We get a skeleton view of someone doing the moonsault to the floor, but the way it’s cut up, you never actually see who does it. You do get to see Porky getting in a middle rope splash not being in the match and in street clothes and a neck brace. This must be confusing to people who watch the TV episodes and know nothing else. Intocable low blows Alan and picks up the win.

CMLL.com reports that Shocker and Rey Bucanero want a hair match with Kenzo Suzuki and Marco Corelone, but Marco and Kenzo are faking that they don’t know spanish so they can’t accept. That is fantastic.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but Shocker’s path since returning goes like
– returns with the Perros, as a rudo, but a cool one
– turns on the Perros
– teases going tecnico, making peace with Que Monito
– teased tecnico turn appears to be dropped, or at least goes nowhere in the main DF arenas
– booked randomly on the spot shows – sometimes rudo, sometimes tecnico, sometimes rudo and turned on
– teams with Universo and Rey in a parajes incredible match
– apparently in a tecnico tag team with Bucanero?

Did I miss a full on tecnico turn somewhere? Because it seems as though there should’ve been one somewhere around here – maybe watch the TV show reflects it better? Or maybe he’s not and just doing the “even a rudo will be a tecnico against a foreign bad guy!” deal?

Add Super Parka to the list of guys coming in for the 11/20 “CMLL vs (old) indy” show. LA Park is part of the main event on Friday, and I gotta feeling they’ll run an angle to set up the Monday show. you’d hope so, at least.

It’s already nearly midnight, so we’ll push everything else till tomorrow.

  1. I think Chui is gonna have a heart attack… mostly b/c I think I just did myself…

    Coliseo last night had Mistico, BLUE PANTHER and Negro Casas against BLACK WARRIOR, HOOLIGAN and ULTIMO GUERRERO.

    You win nothing if you can point out why I capitalized those four guys.

    That … looks … AMAZING! I want the video tape of that yesterday!

    Lineups also came out and looks like Arena Neza Thurs/Sun shows with CMLL talent is back which is always a good thing. Hopefully the Gladiatores guys get good pictures.

    Let me prepare you for a headache though cubs – Zorro is defending a title he doesn’t have and IWRG is creating a new welterweight title b/c the one they had combined with Pentagon’s DG Title wasn’t good enough. Mistico is in the tournament but I’d be stunned if he won…

  2. My guess is that Zorro won back whatever title he had and that had lost to Hator on Dec 31… or he went to the pawnshop that is just across the street of Canek’s house and bought a belt that looked fancy to him…

    It was the AAA Queretaro semifinal the match aired on Accion, maybe they waited that long because the show was still going on in Gala Mexico? Oriental is the one who did the moonsault, match was good and shoul’ve been the main event, problem is that Oriental was trying stuff someone like Laredo/Cometa should do, Intocable was doing stuff Oriental shoul’ve perform, and Elegido was doing the spots Intocable should’ve tried…

    Good thing I have a low cholesterol diet!! Actually, I would’ve a heart attack had it been
    WAGNER – PANTHER – STUKA JR
    VS
    ULTIMO GUERRERO – LA PARK – HOOLIGAN

    Each team featuring amalgalm mask!! Toral lost the magic a few weeks back :( but he could be in the semis with Silver King, Stuka I vs Pimpi, C. Manson & Electro… in an invasion angle.
