CMLL (FRI) 07/04 Arena Mexico [superluchas, ovaciones, ESTO]
1) Artillero & Súper Comando b Angel de Oro & Hijo del Faraon
2) Pequeño Damian 666 & Pequeño Violencia b Shockercito & Tzuki
3) Rey Bucanero, Sangre Azteca, Último Guerrero b Blue Panther, La Sombra, Sagrado
4) el Hijo del Perro Aguayo b Volador Jr., Alex Koslov, La Máscara, Stuka Jr., Felino, Ohara, Averno, Mephisto, Ephesto [Leyenda de Plata, cibernetico, semifinal]
5) Heavy Metal, Mr. Niebla, Negro Casas b Dr. Wagner Jr., Héctor Garza, Místico
Rudos took the 1st and 3rd falls of the main event, and only lost the second because they ripped off Mistico’s mask. Wagner’s mask was ripped to shreds after the match. They’re teasing the Niebla/Wagner singles match as well as the Casas/Mistico/Garza tag title match.
Order of elimination in the LdP match: Ohara, Stuka, Felino, Ephesto, Averno, La Mascara, Alex Koslov, Mephisto and Volador Jr. was pinned by Perro to win it. Ephesto and La Mascara were strecher-ed out with injuries. Perro almost got in to a fight with Tony the cartoonist.
Today’s Lucha Libre London Links (that aren’t total repeats)
– London TV Person tries lucha libre.
– Cassandro interview. He brought the CHIKARA belt to London!
The CMLL TV show is listed here as 90 minutes long (!) also sounds like all the non-match segments from the two MVS shows strung together. (Perhaps that’ll mean they won’t show those pieces on the GdR shows anymore.) If they are showing a match on the show, it’s not as important as the seven or so interview bits they mention here. One of those interviews is with Paco Alonso, which sounds pretty interesting but probably won’t be.
CMLL (TUE) 07/08 Arena Mexico
1) Angel de Oro & Sombra de Plata vs Artillero & Zayco
2) Ángel Azteca Jr., Hijo del Faraon, Tigre Blanco vs Bronco III, Puma King, Tiger Kid
3) Metálico, Metalik, Mictlán vs Arkangel de la Muerte, Dr. X, Nitro
4) Alex Koslov, Marco Corelone, Máximo vs Diamante Negro, Terrible, Texano Jr.
5) Dos Caras Jr., La Máscara, Shocker vs Misterioso II, Rey Bucanero, Último Guerrero
That segunda confirms the Tiger Kid rudo bit wasn’t a one week thing. Felino’s the only tecnico in the family right now. The Metalico/Metalik/Mictlan trio is great for confusing people on names. The Fabian/Diamante feud seems dropped.
CMLL (FRI) 07/11 Arena Mexico
1) Astro Boy & Molotov vs Calígula & Méssala
2) Dark Angel, Lady Apache, Marcela vs Amapola, Hiroka, Princesa Sujei
3) Dr. Wagner Jr. vs La Sombra, Sagrado, Hijo del Fantasma, Máscara Púrpura, Heavy Metal, Black Warrior, Sangre Azteca, Virus, Loco Max [Leyenda de Plata, cibernetico, semifinal]
4) Atlantis vs Blue Panther
5) Héctor Garza & Místico vs Mr. Niebla & Negro Casas [CMLL TAG]
Atlantis doesn’t get the tag match he wanted, but the singles match should be okay. It’s a fairly packed show, with that, the tag title match and the LdP cibernetico.
I think the challengers are slight favorites, because they’ve been dominate in this feud so far and it doesn’t seem time to change things. Strange that it’s Mr. Niebla getting the spot and not Heavy Metal, but that actually may improve their challengers chances.
The easiest way to get two straight sell outs is to have Dr. Wagner win this Leyenda de Plata cibernetico. Wagner vs Perro is a sell out, the winner vs Mistico is a sell out. I don’t know if they want to give those matches away with a one week build, but it seems a pretty safe bet either Wagner or Perro will be facing Mistico in a couple weeks. There’s no other tecnico (or rudo, for that matter) in this match that has a chance versus Perro. The only alternative I can imagine is Metal winning this so they can do his match with Perro Jr. they’d been teasing before the change of direction (and it’d also explain the change in challengers), and Mistico/Metal could even play off the greater feud.

AAA wants to keep the Guapos concept since they ran promos with Decnis and Brazo with Guapito who now comes out to “metrosexual” song with Brazo…
Looks like they finally found an Elvis song to use for Super Porky’s entrance.
Acapulco should have HF2 and Mexpows according to the “proxima semana” skit from AAA…
Call me silly but I think Konnan getting kick out the building is the beginning of the ending to this Legion/AAA storyline. You guys think am crazy but I still have a little faith in AAA and the finish to the TM16 main event was booked well and there was no Roldan turn like most predicted.
Place went nuts when the AAA mid card came out and beat down Konnan. So obviously,this storyline is WORKING on some level.
@xuisaw: Queretaro always has a late July, early August taping.
Yeah. It’s a waste to plug the US dates on AAA since the episodes won’t air in time to make an impact.
Oh so Mistico gets boo’ed and now we should turn him rudo. Ultimo Guerrero gets cheered, maybe he should be turned tecnico. Oh but then he’d be booed, so let’s turn him rudo. But then he’d be cheered again so he’d have to go tecnico. Then he’d be booed… back to rudo. Oops, there’s some cheering – tecnico it is! Wait I hear boos, back to rudo…
Why have tecnicos and rudos anyways. Just make a list and ask the fans before each show who they want to play rudos and who they want to play tecnicos. Then they can react the opposite way they picked just to be “cool”.
They can also yell FRAUDE when Tigre beat Panther for his mask or FRAUDE when Panther beats Tigre.
Pacifying idiots is hard.
No, Mistico should not be turned rudo, we have enough with Atlantis tainting the rudo legacy with his suckyness, just send Mistico away so we don’t have to see him again. Yep, you held for a long time that we had to endure him because “the paying fans want him” but now the “paying fans hate him” so… the let’s get rid of him!!
I think we’ve both been drinking enough tonight that we should just go to bed.
I had a wedding though;;; not sure what your excuse is.
2×1 so I drank twice as much as to what I drink daily. Hehehe… mmm… You got married? Congrats, I suppose…
Oh yeah. I got married and the first thing I did afterwards was come post here. I love this site and the people here but when that day comes I’ll be long gone.:)
