AAA’s updated it’s notes section.
– The Intocable, Scorpio Jr., Alan Stone, Brazo de Plata match will only have on hair on the line (so Scorpio’s losing.)
– They bring up points again in the tag team tournament, but talk of it as it being an elimination tournament and only the winning teams moving on. There’s no point to the points. The first half of the second round matches are on 11/30, and the next will be at Guerrera de Titanes (12/08).
– Last taping of the year is 12/16 in Chilpancingo, Guerrero. They plan on wrapping up the tag team tournament by then, so I think they’ll have the final two rounds at this show (unless there’s a taping in between I’m unaware of.)
– Abismo Negro is looking for more Vipers members. Kaoma Jr. is listed in the group here.
– Rossy Moreno will have been wrestling for 30 years as of 12/30. She debuted in 1976. There’s been some breaks – she’s just back from a three year layoff.
El Halcon #79 is up
– Interview with Mr. Mexico. Mr. Mexico aspires to be Heavyweight Champion someday. Can you imagine the match with him versus Universo? In his free time, Mr. Mexico likes to dance. The greatest misfortune in his life is when tecnicos annoy him. He was a big fan of Mil Mascaras, which caused him to start wrestling.
– Interview with El Hijo del Diablo. Diablo congrulates Bill Gates for inventing the internet. Guess that’s better than Al Gore. He also talks about his match with Mistico and such, but that’s less interesting.
– Interview with Bulldog Quintero, a long time trainer in the Queretaro area. He started in 1955, so he’s been in lucha libre for about 52 years, the last 35 in Queretaro.
– More on El Hijo del Diablo vs Mistico
– Bio of La Mistica, the LLF wrestler who recently lost her mask in Monterrey. Her real name is Juany Torres
– AULL wrestlers in Queretaro
There will be a cage of death match between the Pierroths, the Perros, and the Guerreros with someone losing a hair or mask on 12/30 Tlaxcala. No specific names are mentioned for that match, but I presume one of the lesser Pierroth’s is losing his mask. [El Sol de Tlaxcala]
Luchas 2000 #345 focuses on this past week’s big Tijuana stip match (Mano Negra losing his hair) and next week’s big Tijuana stip match (Mistico vs Hijo del Diablo.)
El Faro has two stories about lucha libre in El Salavador: general history and dictomies in lucha libre.

Man I despise that format. Two wasted tag matches at Guerra de Titanes? I’d rather see the Fuerza Aerea guys used in a fun undercard match.
I’m a bit worried we have no lineup for Guerra de Titanes yet. If you’re reading this Konnan – STICK TO THE PENA FORMAT! Mini’s, flyers, random trios matches with guys who are feuding, big stip match and main event with tecnicos going over! That’s all it needs to succeed!
Rumored Guerra de Titanes card
Billy Boy/Fabi Apache/Mascarita Sagrada/Pimpinela Escarlata vs. Gran Apache/Rossy Moreno/Mini Abismo Negro/Polvo de Estrellas
Alebrije/El Angel/Elegido/Laredo Kid vs. Los Vipers Revolucion (Abismo Negro/Antifaz del Norte/Charly Manson/Histeria)
Revancha Match: Mexican Power (Crazy Boy/Joe Lider/Psicosis) vs. Cuervo/Escoria/Ozz
Bull Terrier Match with the loser losing their hair: Brazo de Plata & Intocable vs. Alan Stone & Scorpio Jr.
Octagon/La Parka Jr./Zorro vs. La Legion Extranjera (who knows which of Konnan’s guys will be here)
Cibernetico w/Chessman vs. Muerte Cibernetica w/Secta
I was going to say that doesn’t fit with the idea of doing more of the AAA tag tournament there, but – unless there’s another taping I’m forgetting, the pairs for GdT would be
Alan Stone & Zumbido
el Angel & Laredo Kid
Rey Cometa & Super Fly
Alebrije & El Brazo
and that first one can’t work at all.
