Robert brought up that Mictlan is supposed to be a formerly unmasked guy from Guadalajara. Going of this, I’ve got two theories
– he’d be someone who wrestled at Arena Coliseo Guadalajara a bunch this year
– but someone who hasn’t wrestled there as much in the last few months
Here’s a list of all the Coliseo GDL regulars (more than 10 matches) who aren’t on the CMLL roster:
Best picture I’ve seen so far, though I’m still looking. It looks like Efesto has a ram horn design on the side of his mask.

Alcibar (WED) 12/20 Coliseo Tulancingo Lineup

4) Batman, Hombre Arana, Superman vs Gran Markus, Enfoermero Jr., Imposter
5) Super Crazy, Ultimo Dragon, Latin Lover vs Nicho, Pierroth Jr., Antifaz
Yes, the actual Super Crazy. Either he got permission for this, or everyone agree not to tell WWE, okay? Good to see the Mexicools breakup span countries. That show should draw.
There’s a 9 man cage of death scheduled for 12/30 in Tlaxacala, with CMLL guys: Atlantis, Olimpico, Tarzan Boy, Damian 666, Halloween, Mr. Aguila, Pierroth, Pierroth Jr., Pierroth II. While the mystery is “which Pierroth will lose”, Atlantis tells El Sol de Tlaxcala if he loses his mask, he’d retire right there on the spot. (I think he means this match, and not in general, but who knows.)
AAA (SUN) 12/17 Palacio del Arte de Morelia Results [Psicosis_Nicho of El Martiente]
1) Billy Boy, Alan, Decnnis b Alliens, Kriptor, Mungo
2) Tiffany, Jerrito Estrada, ? b Estrellita, Mascarita Sagrada, ?
3) Marafuji, Ishimori b Angel, Oriental
4) Ozz, Cuervo, Escoria, Espiritu b Juventud Guerrera, Joe Lider, Psicosis II, Hijo de Tirantes
5) La Parka Jr., Octagon, Gronda II b Ciberentico, Charly Manson, Chris Stone
In related and crucial news, it looks like the Alliens mini, Madrox, got himself a new mask.
El Siglo de Durango has an article on Alvaro Fernandez Reyes, who spent “many years” researching Santo and writing a book on him. It’s called “Santo el Enmascarado de Plata” and I couldn’t find it on Amazon.

CMLL (SUN) 12/17 Arena Coliseo Results [Alvin]
1) Rayo Tapatio I, Rayo Tapatio II b Cobalto, Zayco
2) Bam Bam, Fantasy, Shockercito b Mini Damian 666, Mini Halloween, Mini Mr. Aguila
3) Lady Apache b La Nazi [MEX WOMEN]
4) Felino, Mictlan, Sagrado b Efesto, Emilio Charles Jr., Misterioso II
5) La Mascara b Sangre Azteca [MEX WELTER]
6) Mistico, Shocker, Volador Jr. b Black Warrior, Takemura, Terrible
Tiger Hispano referred the women’s title match, but there were no shenanigans – by him, anyway. Hiroka tried to help out La Nazi and failed, and Lady Apache wants another title shot. (Say no!) Normally, this match wouldn’t air, but they didn’t use matches from the PPV last time, so I think FSE gets that.
Mistico won clean in the main event. Quick, name Mistico’s title belt.
Shocker’s the He Lost His Mask guy this week.
(I’m still looking for a picture of Efesto, person who asked and people who didn’t.)
The second match from this weekend’s GdR, slightly cut to take out breaks and the post match so it’d fit under the 10 minute limit.
You can get it from sendspace here – http://www.sendspace.com/file/f7k2g2 – but it’s not going to last long before hitting the limit. I’m going to put up a version on YouTube, but I need to re-encode it at smaller size.
12/17. I love getting these done on the weekend of (even if it’s the Monday after the weekend)
Crowd turned on the tecnicos during the first match, mostly because Fabian completely screwed up the end of the first fall and no one (me either) would let him forget it. Secnod match was really short, but there to build La Mascara/Sangre Azteca match and it achieved that, and was a little fun too. Crowd was into it more than I’d think, given it being a lesser lineup than you’d expect for a semimain.
I was thinking about it, and I don’t want to tell Ultimo Guerrero how to run his army of evildoers, but if this was baseball, I sorta would, and I’d be hoping to see this line on the transaction pages
GUERREROS, ATLANTIDA
– option (MW) Eclipse to Guerrero Pandilla of the AAA Segunda League, purchase the contract of (WW) Sangre Azteca from Guerrero Pandilla.
I’ll post the match tomorrow.
