05/21: Mistico in SLP, Sangre title defense

Coliseo and AAA results haven’t turned up yet.

CMLL (THU) 05/31 Palenque de la Feria de Gomez Palacio [La Afficon]
1) Pequeno Star vs Scriba Jr.
2) Centella Azul Jr. & Piloto Suicida vs Baby Olmos & Piloto Negro
3) Hijo de Sobearno, Mr. Guerrero, Tackle vs Arkangel, Dr. X, Loco Max
4) Olimpico & Ultimo Guerrero vs Mistico & Shocker

I presume this is the show Chui was referring to previously, wondering what promotions who had paid for Mistico would end up getting if he was hurt. Looks like they’re treating him like he’ll be all fine until news changes. I think you have to be worried about both tecnicos in that main event…

CMLL (FRI) 05/18 Oaxaca [Noticias-Oaxaca]
1) Stuka Jr. & Tigre Metalico b Loco Max & Rey Lobo
2) Lady Apache & Marcela b Amapola & Hiroka
3) Endevaor, Fantasma Jr., Sagrado b Dr. X, Nitro, Texano Jr.
4) Sangre Azteca b Vuleo Espacial [MEX WELTER]
5) Dr. Wagner & Marco Corelone b Atlantis & Ultimo Guerrero
Marco replaced Shocker.

(El Paso Times) Mistico will be signing autographs in El Paso on Saturday at a soccer game, as the Patriots play Brilla FC. All kids wearing a luchador mask get in for free, and it’s dollar beer night, so they’re going to be packing the house. More info at elpaso-patriots.com. I don’t see a picture of Mistico anywhere, though, and this is around Incognito’s homebase. Hmmmmm.(More of a concern is USL’s site listing the team being in Austin on Saturday. I dunno.)

Latin Lover may be out of the TV program he’s on. Sounds like he had some sort of disagreement with the producers and he’s already preparing to move on – he references projects he has planned back in lucha libre.

(El Sol de San Luis Potosi) The dean of Social Science Anthropology at Universidad Autonoma de SLP stated lucha libre is enduringly popular in Mexico because it reflects the struggles of real life. This was part of a paper on lucha libre and popular culture, which also discussed the influence of Mexican lucha libre in other places of the world – a statue of Santo in a Lebanon movie theater, for example.

  1. It’s the same show I was talking about, but the card seems to be a bit different from the one in the flyers they’re handling at AOL.

    It has no “Promociones Wagner” tag, so who knows what is going to happen there…

    TV guy would be too dumb to fire Latin off the show, after 10 years, they finally managed to win it’s time slot and TV Azteca’s Tempranito was sent out of the air, why mess with success?

  2. AAA result is in!

    NUEVO CAMPEONES! WOO-HOO! Secta over MexPower when one of the MexPower turned on his team…

    … and it wasn’t Juventud!

    It was Psicosis!:o

    Not sure if this will lead to Crazzy Boy/Joe Lider siding with Psicosis or if Psicosis has just turned again for no reason. Either way… Joe Lider is not a National champ! YES!

  3. I’m guessing it’s leading to a Lider/Crazy boy/Juvi vs Psicosis/vipers feud. That will suck.

  4. I’m guessing it’s leading to a Lider/Crazy boy/Juvi vs Psicosis/vipers feud. That will suck.
    “””””””””””””””””””””””””””””

    Wait! Don’t forget Extreme Tiger… that would go beyond suck.

  5. I dunno, I could see this being a way for Nicho to start working with Juventud. Konnan owes those guys for life so I’m thinking Nicho joins the MexPower to feud with Psicosis, Histeria, Niebla and Extreme Tiger, the new Vipers since Abismo is gonna be more of a main event guy.

    At least a bunch of the shit will all be involved in one match instead of seperate MexPower and Nicho matches.

  6. Is Nicho back in AAA? And even if he was, he’s less reliable than Shocker so I don’t think they can count on it…

  7. Nicho is not back, but he comes-and-goes enough to expect his return. I’d like to see him come back.

  8. Question!
    I thought Latin Lover had to retire due to injury and/or because he was focusing on his other media outings?

    Like, how popular is he in contrast to others, because isn’t he a tv star?

  9. I found out that the Warped Tour is not going to be much but a three match exposition. Nothing much to it.

    Robert- Why does Konnan owe Juvi and Psicosis for life?
