12/03: Mexico, GDL, press conference, press conference

CMLL (TUE) 12/02 Arena Mexico [ovaciones, ESTO, sololuchas]
1) Ángel Azteca Jr., Angel de Oro, Metálico b Artillero, Pólvora, Súper Comando
2) Dark Angel, Lady Apache, Sahori vs Amapola, Hiroka, Princesa Sujei
3) Dragon Rojo Jr., Okumura, Sangre Azteca b Mascara Dorada, Máscara Púrpura, Valiente
4) Mictlán b Loco Max [hair]
5) Hijo del Fantasma, Místico, Shocker DQ Averno, Mephisto, Texano Jr.

Rudos ripped up Mistico’s mask for the DQ, with Ephesto (who missed his match) and Terrible . Micltan won the first fall, Loco max came back to win the second fall, and Mictlan took the third. It was a nice one hair match winning streak for Loco Max. Okumura replaced Ephesto, who must’ve been too busy dieting for the big title match.

CMLL (TUE) 12/02 Arena Coliseo Guadalajara [MT]
5) Casanova b Super Maquina [hair]
6) Black Warrior, Euforia, Mr. Niebla b Leon Blanco, Máximo, Volador Jr.

Toscano wasn’t really back until he missed a show. Leon Blanco replaced him here. Casanova kept his hair, Super Maquina did not keep his hair. Nice Frank Gore jersey anyway.

(CMLL, Notimex) Before Tuesday’s show, CMLL held a press conference to announce a few things
– the Jauria del Terror is no longer than Jauria del Terror. Averno’s group is now Los Hijos del Averno. Same members, new name.
– Sangre Azteca has left the Guerreros to form his own group. The Guerreros are down to Rey, UG, and Atlantis.
– Shocker wants to restart the Guapos. No lineup announced, but Corelone, Garza, Toscano and Maximo are discussed.
– promotion for CMLL photographer Rosalio Vera’s “101 Llaves y lances de la Lucha Libre”. I want to get that.
– Hype for this Sunday’s show in Arena Mexico and next Sunday’s in GDL as well.

It surely was a massive coincidence the Perros del Mal promotion already had announced they were running a press conference for this same day. News from there, via ESTO (1, 2), WagnerMania and SoloLuchas
– Perro explained their offices are next to Arena Mexico because they were planning on working with CMLL to start. Not so much now; Perro’s not happy about CMLL running a big show agianst them, and will give CMLL a war if they want one. Looks like CMLL’s tickets are cheaper than Perros.
– Olimpico was present, so that confirms his jump. He was added to the rudos in the semimain, with Rayman adding to the tecnicos. Olimpico doesn’t look happy in the pictures. Ayako Hamada and Martha Villalobos were there as well, so they’re probably in the women’s match.
– Dr. Wagner Jr. declared Perro has won, and CMLL has lost. I guess they don’t need to run a show then! Wagner also declared CMLL could not veto him, because he would veto CMLL first. He must’ve vetoed CMLL already, because Box Y Lucha has CMLL saying he’s banned again. He’s on a CMLL show in Pachuca on Saturday, so we’ll see how that goes.
– Dr. Wagner Jr. and Cibernetido didn’t get along and teased problems for their match.

Box Y Lucha also posted a few articles from #2899
the headline story is Cibernetico saying he rejected an offer from CMLL. I’m not sure this means that actually happened.
Konnan is sad to see Cibernetico leave AAA, and vows to push people regardless of nationality. I’m sure every comment on this post will agree to take Konnan at his word on both points.
Parka Jr. is also sad Cibernetico left, but wishes him well. Parka says the doctors told him it’d take a year after his shoulder surgery for him to totally heal, so he’s still getting better every day. At the same time, he says he only takes one day off per month, which can’t help.
Aerostar doesn’t remember anything between diving on Teddy Hart and waking up in the ambulance. That’s not a good sign. The doctor said he had a Cerebral contusion, so Aerostar sat out five whole days.

El Martinete has a nice Pierroth theme this month.

Slam Canada writes about a showing of the Vampiro documentary.

SuperLuchas looks back at Scorpio Jr. vs a Ninja Turtle

AAA (THU) 12/04 Tormenta del Oeste, Tulancingo, Hidalgo
1) Crazy Boy, Fabi Apache, Ultimo Gladiador vs ?, Decnnis, Tiffany
2) Abismo Negro & Alex Koslov vs Black Abyss & Chessman

Okay, either Abismo Negro is back on the road or Black Abyss is better than anyone ever figured. (Or there’s a third Abismo Negro, but I refuse to consider that possibility.)

  1. I can see Perro Jr. renting ArMex or Coli and getting a big crowd for Cibernetico debuting in those venues.

  2. @LLL: If they’re running shows against Perro, I don’t think they’ll let him rent out their arenas later on. Unless this is the dumbest work ever.

  3. This Cibernetico leaving thing is still a work right, or is it seriously for real? I’m getting lost.

  4. I’m also starting to get very confused with the whole Cibernetico/AAA storyline. Then again, I’m sure Konnan could find another friend that is a former wrestler from WWE/WCW/TNA to fill the spot if Cibernectico is realy gone from AAA.

  5. Oh and a little off topic (sorta), how is Sean Waltman going to fi into the current storyline in AAA? The other day he was watching a tv and said something like, “and so it begins”. Was he talking about Konnan becoming even more like Triple H/WWE?

  6. @ CJK:

    that didnt happen the other day, it happened over a month ago. Waltman leads the DMex stable with Romero & Koslov. he was referring to Konnan winning full control of AAA. the era of Konnan was beginning.

  7. @christi: I think it’s a work. The fact that he claims he refused and offer from CMLL is a little too convinient for me. If he was legitematly gone from AAA I think he would want to work for CMLL considering that they are the other big company in Mexico.

  8. @thecubsfan: I look at it this way- CMLL always runs on Fri, Sun, and Tues, and anyone running on those days is running competition against CMLL, so Perro is the aggressor here. Still, I expect CMLL to see dollar signs, and work with PdM at some point. Cibernetico debuting at CMLL venues should do good business.

  9. CMLL doesn’t usually run Arena Mexico on Sunday’s. I also see CMLL working with PDM but no way would they take Ciberneitco. Well If they did it would probably be just to job to Mistico or something.

  10. @Bruce & @CJK:

    That aired on US TV this past weekend, and the previous weekend, but was taped back in October when the Memorial show was taped and aired about a month ago in Mexico. So you’re both right, you’re just talking about different things.

  11. Coli MTY looks like it could be a good show this week. Estrellita is wearling shorts and a mini two sizes too small. And the Hart/Evans vs. Romero/Koslov might be fun.

    If I’m not able to watch, I hope someone can upload the show, and tell me where to find it.
