Rey de Reyes main event: why?

The main event of Rey de Reyes, as currently advertised, is going to be a match between

– one man who will be appearing on the televisions shows but not wrestling
– one man who will not even be appearing on the television show

This is the dumbest thing ever. They can’t even ‘fix’ it by having both work on the 03/09 taping, because it won’t air till a week after Rey de Reyes takes place. There are so many problems here

* How dumb was it to have Mesias retain the title at Guerra de Titanes? Not as dumb as to put Cibernetico thru a flaming table! My best guess is they planned to have Cibernetico run thru guys to get revenge before getting to Mesias, while he was in TNA. Of course, Mesias’ beatdown on the December taping doesn’t work with any of that.

* Why start to turn Mesias tecnico before Cibernetico got his revenge on him? Apparently the revenge isn’t all that important.

* Why not just reintroduce both guys at Rey de Reyes and do the title match sometime after? If the Rey de Reyes concept is a draw, and if Big Foreign Stars are a draw (and AAA appears to believe both of these things), you really shouldn’t need the title match. You could just slide both men into ? spots in the atomico match and use that to start making the title match seem more important than something randomly thrown in.

The actual answer is either
– They’re not confident Mesias will be around a lot
– They’re in a desperate hurry to turn Mesias tecnico (and team with Cibernetico and/or La Parka Jr. to fight the Legion) and clearing the deck to make it happen ASAP. Which would be a strange priority order

None of this makes much sense.

  1. I’m of the opinion that AAA does not know when their tapings will air. It’s not as sophisticated as WWE and TNA who script shows with a definite air-date, and know exactly what angles run before their PPV’s.

    Turning Mesias is stupid. He’s really over. Mexicans here in New York always tell me that he’s one of the highlights of AAA. This tells me they watch AAA, and that Mesias is over as a heel.

  2. Why? I don’t know

    Will the fans love the match up?Yes, it is Ciber and Mesias.

    I think Mesias will be more of a tweener and then after this whole thing blows over he will be rudo again. I don’t see him turning tecnico. I don’t think AAA is going in that direction.

  3. Why? I’m guessing because Konnan will interfere and it will be ruled a no contest. This will lead to a Triplemania match of Mesias vs Cibernetico vs Konnan where everyone turns on Konnan. Then we will get the Konnan super tecnico push.

  4. Konnan? Super technico push?

    You think fans would want to cheer the artist formerly known as K-Dawg after all he has done to the AAA technicos and the HB’s?

    I’d rather have Mesias as a technico only to see how the crowd reacts.

  5. It’s bound to happen sometime. Hell it’s one of the main reasons Konnan is there and trying to get back into wrestling shape.

  6. Konnan should go back to TNA and do a run-in leading to LAX getting the titles. He never should’ve quit TNA.

  7. Ok Tim, riddle me this:

    If Konnan does turn Technico, who do you have turn rudo? Mesias? Because you know for damn sure they are not going to boo Cibernetico.

  8. It will probably be Konnan and Ciber vs Zorro and Abismo. Unless Mesias leaves TNA, I don’t see him lasting to much longer in AAA.

  9. Konnan must be really delusional if he thinks he can get over as a super technico these days. I don’t even think the crowds even want to see him in the ring anymore.
