JRC (SUN) 07/27 Arena Aragon [SuperLuchas #275]
1) Vengador b Mostros
2) Angel Ambeintal b Canelo Juaresz
3) Mr. Zad & Verdugo b Angel Ambiental & Estrella de Plata
4) Epidemia & Heavy Boy b Canelo Juarez & Mr. Boy
5) Mini Cuchillo b Panterita [mask]
This one’s complicated. Panterita is not the IWRG one, but a one local to this arena. He said his name is Manual de Jesus Arenas Santos and had been wrestling for 27 years. After the match, the original Cuchillo hit the ring and claimed Mini Cuchillo had been using that name for years without permission. I have no idea if that’s meant to be an angle. Mr. Boy is said to be Bam Bam’s brother.
IWRG (THU) 07/31 Arena Naucalpan [SuperLuchas #275]
1) Eragon b Dinamita Kid
2) Miss Gaviota & Star Boy b Anubis & Judas el Traidor
3) Enigmatica & Linda Star b Flor Metalica & Lady Warrior
4) Aeroman, Fenix, Freelance b Cerebro Negro, Dr. Cerebro, Fantasma de la Ópera
5) Dr. Wagner Jr., Multifacético, Pantera b Monsther, Scorpio Jr., Zumbido
Wagner fouled Scorpio for the win. Despite not winning the match or even beating him directly in a fall, Dr. Cerebro wants a shot at Freelance’s Lightweight title. Can’t hurt to ask, I guess.
CMLL (SUN) 08/03 Arena Coliseo Guadalajara [mt]
4) Misterioso II, Sangre Azteca, Satánico b La Sombra, Máximo, Valiente
5) Negro Casas b Blue Panther
Negro jumped Panther before the whistle, beat him to win the first fall, beat him up as the second fall started, but Panther made a comeback and got the armbar to tie it up. Third fall was back and forth, and Negro used the ropes on a pin to take it.
Sangre beat Sombra and got himself a NWA World Welterweight Title match next week. Unification? (No.)
SuperLuchas talked with Perro’s doctor, who said they had to reconstruction a broken bicep tendon. The doctor says here that 3 months is the minimum and it all depends on how the tendon heals. Notimex is sticking to the three months return date (putting Perro back in November), but CMLL’s website is now saying Perro will be out (no less than) four months.
Speaking of CMLL, there’s not much to say about their new website – it’s the exact same website it’s always been, just with a little more flash on the front page and a different style sheet. You can paint the house whatever color you want, it’s still the same house with the same rooms and piping.
Notimex has Panther and V5 agreeing to mask match, though no one’s signed anything yet.
This Tuesday is a Fan Appreciation Day, with any ticket for 30 pesos. This seemed to work well last time, and CMLL.com says they’ll be doing it for the first Tuesday of every month. (That’d be 09/02, 10/07, 11/03, and 12/02 this year.)
The DF Box Y Lucha commission being in the news for any reason gives Arturo Rivera the opening to rip it for being pro-CMLL, and he’s not passing that sort of chance up. I’m not sure if you’ve noticed this, but Arturo Rivera is not a fan of CMLL and the people who run it. You know, I don’t know where this oh so exciting blogging life will take me, but if I one day end up with a column in a major newspaper that I can use to primarily to air grudges and attack opponents, it’d be pretty awesome.
On Saturday, Rey and UG beat the teams of Sonjay Dutt & Petey Williams and Kaz & Jay Lethal in a triangle tag match. SuperLuchas says they did the same match the previous night.
Lineups:
IWRG (THU) 08/07 Arena Naucalpan
1) Fenix, Miss Gaviota, Zatura vs Oficial 911, Oficial AK47, Oficial Fierro
2) Aeroman, Centauro, Freelance vs Cerebro Negro, Ciclon Negro, Dr. Cerebro
3) Fuerza Guerrera, Scorpio Jr., Zumbido vs Corazón de Barrio, Hator, Multifacético
This is the Hator/Corazon de Barrio appearances previous mentioned. They’re working a Martha Villalobos show while in Mexico State.
CMLL (SUN) 08/10 Arena Coliseo
1) Rayo Tapatío I & Rayo Tapatío II vs Apocalipsis & Ramstein
2) Lady Apache, Luna Mágica, Marcela vs Amapola, La Nazi, Medussa
3) Bam Bam, Tzuki, Último Dragoncito vs Pequeño Damian 666, Pequeño Violencia, Pequeño Warrior
4) La Máscara, Sagrado, Valiente vs Ephesto, Mephisto, Texano
5) Dos Caras Jr., Marco Corelone, Shocker vs Black Warrior, Lizmark Jr., Rey Bucanero
Minis working third is a good sign. A much better sign than my TiVo, which seems to have ate the FSE episode with the title match on it.
IWRG (SUN) 08/10 Arena Naucalpan
1) Eragon & Yack vs ? & Anubis
2) Gemelo Fantastico I & Gemelo Fantastico II vs Judas el Traidor & Rockero del Diablo
3) Aeroman, Fenix, Freelance vs Oficial 911, Oficial AK47, Oficial Fierro
4) Lady Rabbit & Linda Star vs La Chola & Rossy Moreno
5) Centuaro, Super Astro, Ultramán Jr. vs Dr. Cerebro, Fuerza Guerrera, Monsther
6) Dr. Wagner Jr. & Rayo de Jalisco Jr. vs Máscara Año 2000 & Mascara Ano 2000 Jr.
Must be thrilling for the Oficials, Freelance and the others to work one match below a Lady Rabbit/Linda Star tag team.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOO YOUR TIVO!
I am pumped for that mini’s match next Sunday. Such an awesome lineup. I’m just gonna close my eyes and pray that Marco vs Lizmark Jr. isn’t added as a special match next week which would bump the mini’s down off TV.
Sombra vs Sangre could be really fun or really mailed in. Some guy has been upping GDL matches to ElMartinete so hopefully he comes through.
Wagnermania’s youtube also has the entire CMLL noticias show which has a neat interview with Mistico as he sits in the ring surronded by all his belts and trophies.
How many times has it to be said? There are no minis in CMLL!!!
X-Chui. Why do you always say that about the minis in CMLL? Is that phrase trademarked by AAA?
I really like what I’ve seen from Ras de Lona on 52mx. Looks like it needs one hour though. Still, they do a good job of explaining the feuds, results, and giving personality to some of the luchadors. I noticed the terrible voice over sound when Magadan did commentary from the Friday ArMex footage. Sounded like he was talking into a tin can.
I’d rather see Panther vs. Villano, and I think the fans would too. Who wants to see Perro lose his hair? I’d rather see a legend unmasked.
Yep:
Mini Super Estrellas – AAA
Pequeñas Estrellas – CMLL
Don’t know if AAA has trademarked it, but CMLL never uses the term mini (unless it’s a Slip of the Tongue).
Really? I’m gonna pay attention to that because I swear I’ve heard them say mini’s before but now you’re making me doubt myself.
Hmmm. Now I’m a little curious(no pun intended). I’m going to watch RdL to see how they introduce Bamm Bamm with his new championship. Wagnermania put the show up from 52mx.
The announcers maybe are not familiarized with it, for instance, JC Rivera said Mini Damian last week, but he’s actually Pequeño Damian, there’s no Mini something in CMLL just like there’s no Pequeño something in AAA. The older names are usually -ito or -ita like Dragoncito and Octagoncito or Mascarita and Parkita, but most of them came out during the time Peña was in CMLL or immediatly after he left to form AAA:
