DTU (FRI) 07/04 Bar Litros, Tulancingo, Hidalgo [Notimex
5) Extreme Tiger & Halloween b Joe Lider & X-Fly and Dance Boy & Violento Jack
Halloween put Violento jack thru light bulbs for the win. After the match, Nicho joined his partners in beating up DTU people until Crazy Boy led the entire locker room out to make the save. A Hermandad vs DTU extreme match was teased for the next show.
Sololuchas says Zorro was hurt in Acapulco on July 5.
(Super Luchas #271) Ultimo Dragon faced and beat “Dark Dragon” for his mask on 06/25 in Barcelona on a NWE show. I’ve read the angle they’ve run was Dark Dragon was revealed to be Ultimo’s brother. In reality, it’s was Hajime Ohara. Logically enough, Dragon’s working with angle with his own protege.
The list of CMLL wrestlers head to Spain in August seems to be, at the moment: Dos Caras Jr., Damian 666, Mr. Aguila, Olimpico, Lizmark Jr., Maximo, La Mascara, Valiente, Hijo de Fantasma, Euforia, and Nosferatu. Can you take Lizmark Jr. to a foreign country and be sure you’ll get him back?
Perro Aguayo Jr. says he does want to win Leyenda de Plata, which is worth noting since he broke the trophy and calimed he didn’t care about the award last time he won. Perro also says he doesn’t care about winning titles or hairs, just about proving he’s the best. This works out well, because he doesn’t seem to win titles or hair lately.
Lucha Libre London gets a positive review on the Londonist. Amusingly, they thought the worst match of the night was Solar vs Negro Navarro. A match that runs counter to expectations doesn’t work unless those expectations are fully formed. There’s another review on Figure Four, also positive.
Accion features highlights of the CMLL main event (lots of spots, emphasis on Negro and Niebla beating the champs clean) and the AAA main event from Irapuato. Both segments seemed to get longer than usual.
Noticias Voz writes about old Oaxacian wrestler Demon Red, who never lost his mask but reveals his identity in the article.
Some additional lineups for next week.

FRAM as in FRAM Autofilters. They’ve got an ad for this near the back of Luchas 2000, and unmentioned elsewhere. I have no idea if the main is for the (existing for one night) title or if it’s a “judges choose the best trio” deal.
