Ultimo Guerrero is the 15th CMLL World Heavyweight Champion. Dos won the first fall with the cross armbreaker, UG pinned Dos after he missed a top rope move in the second fall. Dos had UG in a submission in the final fall, but the referee got bumped and then distracted by Rey Bucanero (Ultimo’s second.) Ultimo Guerrero fouled Dos, covered, and got the three count.

Ultimo Guerrero is a double champion, also holding a share of the CMLL Trios titles. The Guerreros hold the two top weight class belts with Bucanero still being Light Heavyweight champion. In fact, of the eight CMLL World Titles, now only two are held by tecnicos (Mistico with the Welter and Bam Bam with the Mini.)

Dos Caras Jr. held the title for 503 days, which is the shortest title reign this decade. (There’s only been 4.) Of far more interest is what’s next for Dos Caras Jr. Dos is booked on the Tuesday, Friday and Sunday shows this week, so there’ll be plenty of time for people to ask question and I’m sure they will.

I could not have been more wrong about this; I’m so stunned, I’ve yet to mark out over UG winning the belt. Does this mean we’re getting Ultimo Guerrero/Marco Corleone matches? There’s not an obvious alternate for the title.
