CMLL FSE #92 (06/01)

taped 05/04, aired in the US on 06/01

I watched this something like two weeks ago, and I’m still thrilled with my sleuthing work on Bronco’s place of origin. Even if I’m probably completely wrong.

Main event was the usual crew, but better than normal for whatever reason. It’s amusing that Alex and Rey are in here, and are main eventing the next FS show that airs in the US (which was taped just three weeks later), and there’s nothing in the two matches to connect the two. These things just happen.

CMLL

CMLL (SUN) 06/29 Plaza de Toros Torreon [el siglo de torreon]
1) Espacial & Tackle b Arana Cibernetica I & Arana Cibernetica I
2) Piloto Negro & Sexy Piscis b Piloto Suicida & Scriba
3) Pentagoncito b Mini Maximo [LAGUNA MINI]
4) Diamante Negro & Mr. Guerrero b Angel Azteca Jr. & Metalico
5) Místico, Negro Casas, Volador Jr. b Black Warrior, Villano IV, Villano V

There’s complains about the length of the main event – tecnicos took straight falls, no Negro turn here – and Mini Maximo’s perfomance (very green.) Attendence is mentioned as 4,000.

In his Box Y Lucha interview, Rey Cometa says he’s hoping Shocker will able to help him get into CMLL. He feels he wasn’t paid right in AAA and there’s too much favortism going on there. Welcome to wrestling.

The general pattern for replacements seemed to be “stick in who ever else is already, regardless of it makes sense.” Yuriko worked with the tecnicos, but may still be a rudo. Or it may all change again, since miscommunication between the Night Queens that lead to their defeat.

The mixed tag was teased as the Morenos beating the champ to get their (already promised) title match, since they lose these belts due to injury. Instead, the Apaches just beat them.

Nothing to say about the Vipers match except Psicsois was a mystery guy and Yuriko were filling the “?” spots. ? spots should be presumed

Decnnis wrestled and was accompanied by Guapito, so apparently begging works! Pirata Morgan is unlikely to be a Guapo, but he was a live body, so he got to work with the rudos here and actually get the pin on Elegido.

In between the fourth and the fifth match, Konnan came out, claiming to have won TripleMania and wanting something from AAA for doing so. There must be an angle I’m missing here (like how you can lose the main event and still count it as a win), but it’s not one that went anywhere on this show. Prez. Roldan appeared, threatened to sue Konnan for breaking his nose and had the AAA roster throw him out of the building. I’m not sure that case holds up in court, but Konnan’s used to being dragging into those sort of cases.

Ozz, with Mesias as he second, beat Chessman, with Cibernetico as his second. Mesias interfered a lot and Ozz put Chessman thru a table to win, so it’s no wonder Chessman was all “where the heck were YOU?” to Cibernetico after the match. It’s a fair question.

Either Silver King jumped on a plane after this show, or he’s not making those dates he had promised to make. Whatever the case, he couldn’t be much help to the tecnicos here, because they lost Vampiro from the match when Mesais and Ozz came out to fight him. Zorro beat Silver King for the win, which makes Silver King 0-2. After the match, Zorro called out anyone from AAA to join the Legion. Mari and Gran Apache showed up. I’m not sure who turned on who first, but Mari and Gran Apache ended up not part of the Legion and beaten down, with Ayako Hamada turning up to help the Legion. Chessman and Cibernetico made the save. During that save, Chessman speared Ayako, which Cibernetico objected to as excessive violence. When exactly did Cibernetico become a pacifist?

Actually, the weird thing is that scans like they’re setting up Gran Apache & Mari Apache vs Ayako Hamada & Zorro for the titles and I totally want to see that match now. I shouldn’t hold out hope of it happening.

Upcoming Tapings
– 07/05 (Acapulco) – no matches announced so far. Perhaps that’s the safe call.
– 07/13 (Salamanca)
– 07/20 (Arena Solidardad)
