2) Marcela & Princesa Sujei b Diana la Cazadora and India Sioux and Sahori and Luna Magica and Princesa Blanca and Atenea and Amapola and La Nazi and Rosa Negra and Medussa and Diosa Maya and Seductora [sf, ciber, final 2 advance, MEX WOMEN]
3) Damian 666, Hijo del Perro Aguayo, Terrible b Dr. Wagner Jr., Mistico, Sagrado
4) Ultimo Guerrero b Shocker
Ultimo snuck in a foul. His evil monkey was there, which means it was someone other than Tzuki this time. Super Luchas says it was a slightly different costume this time. CMLL is looking for a better name for Ultimito de la Atlantida, which is fine by me.
Perro pinned Mistico clean again, and they pushed voting for him on his reality show. Others from the show were there to root him on.
Order of elimination for the women’s match (all via Super Luchas)
1) Diosa Maya (by Luna Magica)
2) Atenea (La Seductora)
3) La Seductora (India Sioux)
4) Luna Magica (Medusa)
5/6) La Nazi & Princesa Blanca (usual double pin)

8) India Sioux (Amapola)
9) Rosa Negra (Marcela)
10) Sahori (Sujei)
11) Diana (Amapola)
12) Amapola (Marcela)
India was bleeding during the match. Total match time is 24:27. That’s long.
Stuka filled in for Danger. Brillante gets a good review by ESTO.

7) Kazuchika Okada, Mil Mascaras, Mistico, Ultimo Dragon vs Minoru Suzuki, SUWA, Ultimo Guerrero, Yoshihiro Takayma
As always, the first comment I make upon seeing a Toryumon Mexico card is “…the HECK?” That is one strange main event. I don’t even know where to begin.
The semimain tag should be interesting. This ought to mean he (and maybe Takayama) is working Friday and Sunday as well. Remember about 4 years ago when we were promised Lyger was coming to Mexico soon? Time moves slower in Mexico!
I guess the Fantasmas lost the coin toss to get the title shot this time.
Should I know who Casanova Italiano is? Milano Collection AT, perhaps? What’s the deal with faux-Italians in the greater Toryumon universo, anyway?
The third team in the third match are the UWA Canada guys, I do believe.
What happened to Onita? Not that I care.

If that main event for the Torynumon show somehow gets Ultimo Guerrero a NOAH tour, I will be a happy Lucha fan. That is one hell of a team.
It’s about time Virus turned rudo. He’s so bland as a techinco. I wanna see more of Texano Jr.
Where’s Dark Angel?
Ultimo Guerrero in NOAH is highly unlikely because NOAH has a relationship with AAA. They are co-promoting a SEM/AAA in Japan on September 3.
The main event of this year’s Toryumon’s Arena Mexico show might just be more bizarre than last year with Muta. Takayama, Minoru Suzuki & Mil Mascaras in the same ring. Liger in there with Wagner & Casas should be good.
Awesome, interested to see what your thoughts on the new Infernales are.
Pretty weak lineups. Not so sad about the Sunday Arena Coliseo segunda being women since next week will clearly be another 3 matches from Arena Mexico show.
Could it be that they are going to give the title to Sujei as a present before she loses her mask to Dark Angel sometime soon?
Bino Gambino is actually from California if I’m not mistaken.
These Tuesday shows are getting way too booked to not be making TV somewhere. I have to check into this. I’m so confused as to where they are heading with the 3 tecnicos vs 1 tecnico, 1 rudo and 1 tweener feud.
It would not surprise me to see the Tuesday Coliseo stuff on TV real soon. Just too many cable stations in Mexico looking for Lucha. And since AAA is too disorganized, and does not have a venue to do weekly TV from, you pretty much have to rely on CMLL, or indie promoters who use CMLL.
I’d rather see something totally different like Arena Puebla or Queretaro.
Looking back at the lineups, I wonder if instead of building a trios titles match they are going to give Mistico his 4th title tonight but then take away the tag belts, except this time with Mistico/Negro losing to the Perrito/Garza combo?
From the videos it appears the women were trying to kill themselves so I’m all for seeing that match. Looked like at least 3 of them(as if I would know who is who) took nasty falls on dives.
