taped 07/27, airing 08/26 (in the US)
I think the opener was okay. We didn’t really see much of Leono. The main event was about usual, and there was at least one awful botched spot in both matches.
Day: August 27, 2007
AAA World Heavyweight Tournament, so far
As best I can figure, culled from results and Chui’s comments about what’s aired on TV, this is where we are:
(dates listed are taping dates)
FIRST ROUND
08/16: Charly Manson b Kenzo Suzuki
08/16: Cibernetico b Mr. Niebla
***** Cibernetico REMOVED from tournament for losing IWC Heavyweight Title to Mesias *****
08/19: Mesias b La Parka Jr.
08/19: Chessman b Zorro
SECOND ROUND
09/09: Charly Manson vs X-Pac (replacing Cibernetico)
09/13: Chessman vs Mesias
FINAL
09/16: Verano de Escandalo – Guadalajara (Mesias vs Charly?)
Can’t ever make it easy, huh. Please just do a cibernetico for the next one.
08/27: Coliseo, AOL
CMLL (SUN) 08/26 Arena Coliseo
1) Pequeno Damian 666 & Pequeno Halloween b Fantasy & Pequeno Olimpico
2) Luna Magica, Marcela, Sahori b Amapola, Medussa, Seductora
3) Leono, Mascara Purpura, Mictlan DQ Emilio Charles Jr., Skandalo, Virus
4) Misterioso II, Terrible, Texano Jr. b Alex Koslov, Felino, Heavy Metal
5) Dos Caras Jr., Marco Corelone, Volador Jr. b Olimpico, Sangre Azteca, Ultimo Guerrero
In the third fall of the main event, Dos kicked Ultimonito off the apron. The mini ended up taking a bump into the front row, hitting an arm rest badly. He had to be strechered out, and that was the end of the Guerreros on the night. Emilio fouled Mascara Purpura to end that one. Pequeno Damian beat Mini Olimpico, who was carried out. Mini Damian’s looking for another title shot. He’s not getting it next week, so far.
CMLL (SUN) 09/02 Arena Coliseo
1) Rayo Tapatio I & Rayo Tapatio II vs Artillero & Super Comando
2) Sombra de Plata, Tigre Blanco, Trueno vs Dr. X, Hooligan, Loco Max

4) La Mascara, Mascara Purpura, Maximo vs Emilio Charles Jr., Misterioso II, Virus
5) Dos Caras Jr., Rey Bucanero, Volador Jr. vs Hijo del Perro Aguayo, Terrible, Villano V
I’m thinking the hair/mask match will be on the 9th. Emilio/Purpura interest me more than Lizmark/Perro (but is a million times less a draw.)

Expreso writes about El Misterio de la Muerte, who’s pushing a fruit cart during the day and wrestling at night.
NWA Pro has a show in Long Beach, CA including Santo and Sgt. Slaughter. This is nearly as great as a concert I heard about for next weekend where the headlining acts are Snoop Dogg and the Shins. I can’t believe I’m not going to that.

ElHalconnet has had what I thought was a teaser graphic (with Sombra, Metalico and Dos Caras) for the next edition of the magaizine up for about a week, but there’s no new magazine yet. Anyone know what’s going on?
