El Halcon returns with issue 94. It includes an interview with Metalico about his name change! I’ve missed el Halcon much.

3) La Mascara, Maximo, Sagrado b Misterioso II, Sangre Azteca, Skandalo

CMLL (TUE) 11/06 Arena Mexico [ova]
1) Sombra de Plata & Trueno b Calígula & Méssala
2) Atomo, Pequeño Olímpico, Último Dragoncito b Mini Black Warrior, Pequeño Violencia, Pierrothito

Good to see Valiente’s able to get back in the ring so quick. Mictlan replaced Mascara. Universo and Atlantis were going after Dos and Panther’s mask in the main event. Ovaciones says the show was well attended.

4) Bam Bam, Guerrero Zulu, Mascarita Dorada b Fuercita India, Pequeño Damian 666, Pequeño Halloween

Virus replaced Mr. Aguila, which makes the main event look strange. Perro took Sagrado and Volador’s masks after the match.
Today’s Figure Four Weekly reports CMLL may evade running all their weekly shows at Arena Mexico in December. Business owners around Arena Coliseo weren’t happy with being out of business for a month while the roads were being ripped up and apparently have gotten the plans changed. All of the work is scheduled to be done by 11/30. FFW says ALL the weekly shows will be moved to Mexico during November, but CMLL hasn’t made any announcement about moving the Sunday shows yet – maybe that starts next week.
CMLL (TUE) 11/06 Arena Actopan
1) Hombre Bala Jr. & Kid Tiger vs Corsario & Puma King
2) Astro Boy & Sensei vs Arkangel & Loco Max
3) Bam Bam & Mascarita Dorada vs Mini Black Warrior & Mr. Aguilita
4) Brazos vs Villano III & Villano IV
5) LA Park & Volador Jr. vs Hijo de Lizmark & Terrible
That opener amuses me.

1) Virgo vs Milenio
2) Ebola & Golden vs Depredador (Guadalajara) & Exterminador
3) Gallo & Mach 1 vs Infierno & Malefico
4) Maximo, Metal Blanco, Super Nova vs Angel Blanco, Toxico, Virus

4) Angel, Huracan 2000, Krihsna vs Diamante Negro, Rock Power, Shendu el Guerrero
5) Crazy Boy, Jhony Reyna, Joe Lider vs Azor, Guerrero Blanco, Roquero Tri
Admission is one kilo of canned foods for charity. Crazy Boy’s run this sort of show in the past and it sounds like a nice deal.

So that’s another win for Park. Tercera is tecnicos vs tecnicos.
Tijuana’s director of sports has rejected yesterday’s plan to split the local Comission of Box Y Lucha. He says it would hurt amateur sports and other places who’ve split the two commissions have ended up putting them back together. The director says Mexico City’s splitting the two has worked poorly for them, while the article yesterday said it worked great – there’s clearly something going on here.
NotiFight writes about the Friday night Arena Coliseo Guadalajara boxing match that turned into a riot. It sounds like the boxers seconds started fighting, then everyone started fighting. Building was still closed on Monday. That article is more about the blame (everyone’s pointing the finger at the commission), and this article is about the riot itself, breaking out during the sixth round of a match.
The show did go on Tuesday, but with a lot of card changes. IX @ box y lucha went primarily to see Black Warrior, who did not appear. They went looking for a refund after the match and had to take the argument to Apolo Dantes (who’s in charge there) and eventually got a free ticket for another show while being told Warrior missed the show due to injury. Apolo Dantes might have been told that, but Warrior was working Mexico City at that time. Negro Casas and Maximo also missed the show. I wonder if people got pulled or bailed on the show because Sunday’s was canceled.
A promoter in Tepic got taken to the hospital after Zumbido took him out with a dive. (WORK!) In the undercard, Super Fly won a Rey del Aire tournament and Mini Histeria took Muerte Negra’s mask in a minis ruleta de muerte.
Magazines
– Guerreros del Ring #112 has La Sombra
– Box Y Lucha #2843 has Mistico and Negro as LOSERS. (The photo quietly teases a breakup as well.) Also, Veneno’s apparently in jail.
