In today’s Ovaciones, Hijo de Perro Aguayo announced he’ll return to the ring on 08/03. No match is announced, but Perro would enjoy teaming with the Perros against Mistico. That’s sure possible.

Speaking of strange people who want to challenge Mistico, the goofy band which was calling him out before, Loco Solitario, announced they want Mistico to have to sing when he loses. Mistico responded by uping the stakes, exactly as he usually does – Mistico will sing and unmask if he loses to the band leader, but if (when) he wins, everyone in the band has to shave their head. Mistico is very anti-hair.

Pegasus News/Angel @ Warped Tour

IWRG (SUN) 07/15 Arena Naucalpan [IWRG]
1) Samba & Tortugilo Ninjo b Comando Gama & Golem
2) Cyborg, Fantasma de la Ópera, Xibalba b Ave Fenix, Kid Tiger, Marco Rivera
3) Cerebro Negro, Tony Rivera, Ultraman Jr., Veneno b Black Terry, Dr. Morvus, El Hijo del Diablo, Enfermero Jr.
4) Hijo de Cien Caras & Mascara Ano 2000 Jr. b Electroshock & Hijo de Anibal [IWRG IC TAG]

Fantasma de la Opera ran in the tercera to attack Black Terry, which helped the tecnicos. There’s probably another match here, but IWRG didn’t report it. I’m just happy they’re reporting anything.

CMLL (SUN) 07/15 Arena Coliseo Guadalajara [Mayu @ el Martiente]
3) Dr. X, Infierno, Mr. Trueno b Astro Boy, Oro II, Plata
4) Marco Corelone, Máscara Sagrada, Rayman b Cien Caras Jr., Eclipse, Olimpico
5) Dr. Wagner Jr. b Terrible [UWA HEAVY]

Lots of pictures at the link.

Olimpico replaced Lizmark Jr. I have not seen a result with Lizmark Jr. in it since the June 29th main event against Blue Panther. Maybe he’ll show up for his scheduled match today in GDL, or maybe he’s vanished for three weeks and I’ve just now noticed.

Speaking of, no Black Warrior at TripleMania makes his disappearance all the more strange.

CMLL (MON) 07/16 Arena Puebla [hugo999 and others @ box y lucha]
1) Blue Center, Forajido, the Tiger b Centella de Oro, Espiritu Maligno, Siki Ozama Jr.
2) Coco Blanco, Coco Rojo, Coco Verde DQ Fuerza Chicana, Skandalo, Toro Bill Jr.
3) Mascara Purpura, Maximo, Valiente b ? (japanesse), Goto, Okumura
4) Alex Koslov, Sagrado, Volador Jr. b Averno, Sangre Azteca, Toscano
5) Atlantis, Olimpico, Ultimo Guerrero b Blue Panther, Mistico, Negro Casas

Evil Monkey distracted the ref in the main, and UG fouled Panther for the pain. Not sure about that semimain result. Ohara was supposed to be in the tercera, but was replaced by a Japanesse man the regulars couldn’t identify. (I’d presume one of the IWRG crew.) Skandalo yanked Coco Verde’s mask.

AAA (TUE) 07/17 Gimnasio Revolucion Culiacan [Noro Este]
1) Extreme Tiger & Laredo Kid vs Espiritu & Scoria
2) X-Pac vs Super Porky, Scorpio Jr. [bull terrier, $10000]
3) Pimpinela Escarlata vs Polvo de Estrellas, May Flowers, Cassandro, Jessy, La Rebelde [hair, mask, cage]

I just like the idea of someone winning $10000 in a match. The cage match is not too hard to figure out.

AAA (THU) 07/19 Arena Tigre Padilla [Zocalo.com.mx]
1) Aguila Plateada vs Demonio Negro
2) Black Boy & King Warrior vs Carvenicola & Konan Gay
3) Capricornio, Coyote, Garlin Boy vs Euforia (Monterrey), Negro Villa, Simbolo
4) Barba Roja, Hijo del Pirata Morgan, Pirata Morgan, Pirata Morgan Jr. vs Baby Rap, Golden Boy, Rey Demonio, Sky

As best I can now figure, this is how everything has gone

Kaleth -> Barba Roja
Nemesis IWRG -> Drake Morgan -> BACK to Nemesis IWRG
? -> Hijo de Pirata Morgan

and no one’s a clown. That’s some other people. Anyway, I think I have to go correct some Monterrey results now.

Air Date
Mex: 07/22 – this was a 5 hour show live, so I still think there’s a possibility they split it.
US: 08/11

The following is cribbing heavily from Medio Tempo‘s report, because they’ve got the only detailed account I’ve seen. I’ve bolded a couple of changes I’ve noticed from early reports. You can read prior TripleMania coverage (live, and day after) elsewhere on this webpage.

Charly Manson exited the cage first, followed by X-Pac. X-Pac and Konnan teamed up to lay out Charly on the outside, and set up a whole bunch of tables. Mesias started to escape, Chessman went after him, and that’s when Chessman took the huge bump off the cage to the tables. This left Kenzo and Cibernetico inside. Mesias tried to help by blowing fire at Cibernetico, but Kenzo got it instead, and that lead to the pin.

Konnan got in a cheap shot on Zorro which lead to the Rikishi pin in the semimain. It sounds like Zorro being stretchered out was storyline (selling the Bonzai Drop) while Parka being stretchered out might or might not have been (landed on his bad shoulder while taking a bump for a Sabu move.)

Sangre Chicana and Octagon did work as seconds in the Guerrera v Guerrera battle. Tirantes was the ref, so you can figure how this went early. Octagon did indeed get tied to the ropes to prevent him from helping, and the comeback started with Pepe Casas coming out to cut him free. Somehow in the battle, Sangre Chicana was locked in ambulance to prevent him from interfering, and Juvi pinned Fuerza with Pepe Casas counting. Fuerza offered a handshake post match, but Juvi refused and walked off with Octagon. Juvi should totally decide to be Octagon Jr. now.

In the notLadder match, Extreme Tiger (second) set up Scoria (second) on a table on the floor and went to the top rope to put him thru, but Ozz shoved Extreme Tiger off, and Tiger hit the floor. The table remained unbroken, so Cuervo set up Lider on the table and did hit his dive thru the table, but Lider and Cuervo were hurt in the process. Crazy Boy overcame took out Escoira and Ozz, winning with a (wait for it) chair assisted flying move to Mexican Powers win the tag titles.

Box Y Lucha?/unmasked Super Calo

The Relevos Incredible matchup ended up being Gran Apache & Laredo Kid vs Super Fly & Super Calo, so it was change of plans. Apache & Calo opted to work it like they were tag partners early on, beating down the Fuerza Aerea duo. Somewhere in here, Laredo Kid missed a dive on Calo, but was all right (relatively.) Like recent AAA tag matches, this was one fall to a finish (not elimination style), so when Apache beat Super Fly, it was over.

The Super Fly vs Super Calo match was held after the ladder match and the Guerreras match. Super Calo was revealed to be Rafael Garcia of DF, 15 year wrestler. They did a bit with Alan Stone consoling him to set up the new alliance.

Alebrije & Cuije beat Scorpio Jr. & Guaptio with planchas to win that match.

Alfa beat Oriental with a Dragon Suplex to win the opener. Oriental was KOed in the process.

Lita performed after the show. Ricky Marvin was announced as coming in September.
