five quick thoughts about Rey de Reyes

While we’re all still waiting to find out how that opening trios turned out:

1) when they decided to tease Mesias vs Wagner, did they have a finish for that match in mind? Wagner’s not going to lose. AAA’s not going to give Wagner their title unless Wagner commits to stay there for a long period, and Wagner’s not down with that.

Then again, this poll question:

2) In a year where you’re just doing the Rey de Reyes to do it, Electroshock is actually the perfect winner. Points for existing. (And points to RL for being the only non-anonymous person to pick him.)

If you check out the photos on Box Y Lucha’s Wagner to AAA story, you can see Electroshock is among a mass of goofballs laid out from something or other. (I presume Mesias beat up 12 men by himself.) That’s probably a sign of how meaningful that win was.

3) Do all the TV tapings for the next four weeks – including the US swing, that’s the number of lineups announced right now – get torn up this week or do guys like Marco and Juvi stay out of the ring four weeks?

Whatever way, we’ll probably have a good idea of the new programs by this time next week.

4) Is Konnan still in control of AAA? Is Vampiro still commissioner? (I don’t think so)? Did Padrino disappear when no one was paying attention?

5) If we want back to Guerra de Titanes, I think you’d the depth chart would go like

Tecnicos (top 4)
– Mesias
– Latin Lover
– La Parka Jr.
– Charly Manson

Rudos (top 4)
– Konnan
– Zorro
– Chessman
– Electroshock?

and today

Tecnicos (top 4)
– Mesias
– Dr. Wagner Jr.
– Marco Corleone
– Vampiro

Rudos (top 4)
– Konnan
– Silver King
– Electroshock
– Zorro

  1. 1) I think it was all about the “shock value” and nothing more. I doubt the match ever happens but if they somehow manage to pull it off it will be smoke and mirrors. Chessman will somehow end up taking the pin after being thrown off the roof of the Palacio De Los Deportes.

    2) Are you saying Electro Shock = Mabel?

    3) Guessing the lineups stay the same. Marco can be the ??? in the Konnan match on 3/20. They didn’t immediatly rush X-Pac, Koslov and Romero (when he was around) into action after their debuts.

    4) If you mention the name Padrino they might remember to use him again. Please use a word filter. I suggest “shithead”.

    5) I would take Mesias off the tecnico list and put Parka on. Mesias is more of a tweener, no?

    I guess Chessman can now fully devote his time to teaming with the Psycho Circus and feuding with La Secta and/or D-Mex? Do you think AAA will ever get the chance to have someone beat the Psycho Circus before they leave the promotion?

  2. and where it fits koslov romero and x pac???? i thought AAA would give them a better promo, also where is the big japanese guy?? where is the secta? i think the guys who books the shows will have big trouble with so many “talent” lol and why they keep book shows for konnan and vampiro if they cannot wrestle anymore???? and yes im still wonderin where is the padrino? or the new one xion ???? AAA should feel mor epity for CMLL and borrow some foreigners to them hahaha so many “talent” and konnan says in the interview he cannot give oportunities to mexican wrestlers cos they can be big heads after they got famous i wonder what he´s goin to do with all these new guys lol wagner being a diva, silver king always usin the mask, parka being left with octagon, koslove jindrak, romero and xpac playin as fake mexicans and now another question where are the vipers???? when AAA is gonna bring back the matches women vs women not mixed ones and get more talent and not just usin the apache girls and moreno or tiffany and so many others members who have been since the beginin with AAA and now they are left what is gonna happen???? Zorro will have his chance for the belt? sooo many questions hehe anyone can help me cos my brain is gonna explote ha lol and for the question i think juvi will be the first one who leave cos he can get matches in other companies easier then Dr diva Wagner

  3. my head is full of questions now AAA is gettin the No 1 wrestling company in mexico hehehe i think now they can compete directly with WWE cos cmll is less them them ha where is rellik??? where is porky???? where is guapito ????? or Macarita Sagrada III????

  4. Cubs once told me about this wonderful land where AAA has a show called ‘Triple A Jakked’ and all our favorites like Alebrije, Monster, Decnis, May Flowers, Jessy and Javi are having fantastic matches.

    I want to go there.

  5. In a way, Wagner’s success for failure in AAA will depend on how successful AAA is at getting their local promoters to pay Wagner’s price. If AAA can keep Wagner busy, it will work out.

    The main complaint is that AAA’s schedule is brutal, while CMLL allows you to work close to home. Marco said it himself on the Listen-In, and Teddy Hart also mentioned it.

  6. The guys know what they getting themselves into though by signing with AAA to work that schedule.

    I don’t see the Wagner/AAA relationship lasting long about 2 months.

    Marco is different, I think Marco can be a huge babyface now that he working in front of a bigger audience and will most likely be on tv everyweek as the main tecnico.

    I still think Cibernetico is coming back for Triplemania. Once he realize there’s nothing else out there. He would never join CMLL due to the sexual politics. Plus, AAA would welcome him back. He just have to take less money.

    Good to see Juvy back.

  7. If Wagner lasts long enough for a Triplemania match, Does this mean LA Park is coming in? That would be something and a big money feud between LA Park and La Parka could do AAA good. Sure it’s just wishful thinking I guess. Oh and if the Wagner/Mesias match happens, I got Mesias by DQ.

    It should be interesting if this leads to mass AAA talent exodus like what happened last year?

  8. @Tony Galvan: Can’t imagine that will ever happen, but the thought crossed my mind as soon as I heard about Wagner working for AAA. But, I don’t think they will put up enough money for the mask match to happen, or to even bring Park back.

  9. Will be good to see for how long it goes this about AAA new talent with Wagner, Juvi and Jindrak now, how long they will keep it up with AAA, and im still wondering what the many left would think now that they dont have anymore matches, Alebrije(cuije) Guapos Vip, Vipers, Secta, Elegido, Elvis Porky, Octagon, Parka and many more, the D Mex will worth better now Jindrak will join them? Wagner will beat messias and get the belt? Silver King will lose his Mak for the 3rd time with Parka, Konnan says that might be a chance that Perros del Mal get into AAA that would be good? Zorro will be in the main matches again? who cares about Axxel leaves the CMLL ?

  10. Axel has to lose his mask. Nothing left for him to do in wrestling. His leaving could mean Fredo is correct about Santo returning.

  11. Axel’s mask probably means less than Grey Shadow or Goddess’s mask. If he loses it, he should lose it to Mini Ozz or Mini Cibernetico, not santo.

  12. When people vote that Wagner won’t last long in AAA, what are they saying? That AAA has trouble holding on to top talent? That Wagner is problematic, and won’t last long? I don’t get it. Wagner spent years in CMLL. I don’t see any reason why he won’t last for years in AAA.

  13. Wagner never fully developed his ego till his success in New Japan which occured in 1998. It’s been growing ever since. When a guy won’t job cleanly (even on the tiniest of tiny shows) and refuses to take orders from promoters on whether they want him as a tecnico or rudo – you’re gonna have a problem no matter what.
