tag team tournament to be humongous, for a title shot

CMLL.com has mentioned that Friday’s tag team tournament is just part one of a three week bit to find new #1 contenders. They’ll be another eight teams next week, and the two tournament winning teams meet on 01/25 to earn a title shot versus Ultimo Guerrero & Atlantis.

quick guess at teams
Shocker & Mistico
Alex & Marco
Negro Casas & Heavy Metal – Felino will be on standby
Maximo & Leono – I like to pretend Leono winning hair matches is going somewhere
Mr. Aguila & Damian 666
Averno & Mephisto
Lizmark Jr. & Black Warrior – comedy! Terrible can wrestle here when Lizmark doesn’t.
Nosferatu & Euforia

01/07: Coliseo, Mistico

CMLL

CMLL (SUN) 01/06 Arena Coliseo
1) Rayo Tapatío I & Rayo Tapatío II DQ Artillero & Súper Comando
2) Arkangel de la Muerte, Dr. X, Skandalo b Ángel Azteca Jr., Fabián el Gitano, Metálico
3) Amapola, Hiroka, La Nazi b Luna Magica, Marcela, Princesa Blanca
4) Black Warrior, Ephesto, Sangre Azteca b La Máscara, Máximo, Super Nova
5) Damián 666, el Hijo del Perro Aguayo, Héctor Garza b Rey Bucanero, Sagrado, Volador Jr.

They’re back in Arena Coliseo, and the first match ended in an excessive violence DQ! Always a nice way to reopen a building. Who’s that ref in the opener, anyway?

Heavy Metal was MIA, so Sagrado moved up a match and Super Nova got in the semimain. With Damian distracting the refs, Hector fouled Rey and Perro yanked Volador’s mask for the win.

Amapola used the ropes to beat Marcela, and they might be fueding again. One match every two months may be the goal for ’08.

CMLL (SUN) 01/06 Deportivo Kid Azteca
1) La Máscara, Místico, Sagrado b Averno, Mephisto, Nosferatu

Mistico made a special (early?) return here, because it was for his home district of Tepic on Three Kings Day. This is what aired on Accion last night, and just a very brief clip (enough to note the same bicycle giveaway.) The tecnicos were giving away toys to kids here, same as indy wrestlers were doing in Xalapa and surely many more people elsewhere.
