2009 AAA TV Taping Chart – I’ve heard and mentioned conflicting reports, but I’m currently working under the idea that only one show on the US Tour (Las Vegas) is being taped.
Projected Air Date #885
Mexico: 04/26
US: 05/16
That’d be Dr. Wagner Jr.’s first AAA TV match, maybe his first match as an official part of the company. You know, I like the chances of the tag team champs winning a non-title match here, especially if the plan is still to do Mesias/Wagner. It’ll also be the first chance to see how (or if) they’re going to play the Silver King/Dr. Wagner relationship.
Otherwise, not a lot of movement going on, as we’ve come to expect this far out from a major show. (There’s about 7 weeks of TV after this to TripleMania.) Billy/Apache and Super Fly/Electroshock feuds are touched on, Latin Lover and Marco is interesting on a meta-level (assuming Latin shows.)
Not strong favorites in either cruiserweight match. Crazy Boy would seem to be ahead of Extreme Tiger, but they’ve done a lot to keep Tiger visible when they’ve had no real idea for him (lots of other guys who could not say the same.) Alan Stone is probably above Scoria, but Scoria might be a better fit to work the match Crazy Boy or Extreme Tiger would want to work next round – if even these are supposed to be brackets, which isn’t clear.
AAA has announced the next taping in Aguascalientes, but no date except “end of the month”. It’ll be probably a couple week break between tapings (which will allow the TV show to catch up a bit.) They could use the break.

If I am a betting man, Wagner turns on Mesias, joins the Legion, wins the title….
Then announces that he is taking the title back to CMLL, then it starts a WCW Vs WWE type war.
Not bad at all. Poder Del Norte and Gran Apache seem to be the odd men out here. Apache lost his main rival due to his feuding with Aero Star and the Poder Del Norte were only being matched up with Aero Star/other flyers teams.
Would have prefered to see Gato Eveready in for Ultimo Gladiador in that fourth match.
I’m gonna guess for no reason at all we see Alan Stone vs Extreme Tiger in round 2 since it’d be a complete cluster and a way for Konnan to pray Tiger injures Alan so he doesn’t have to be booked for a while.
I love Wagner/Mesias matching up with Lider/Nicho. I wonder how long AAA can keep booking Wagner against opponents that will job clean to him? I wonder if that being the semi-main is just incase Wagner pulls a no-show.
I think the first match looks great. I’m excited anytime Aerostar and Billy Boy meet. And the Apaches are fun to watch in nearly every match they have. Plus anytime Sexy Star is around that is a welcome addition to AAA for me. Match four looks really good too. I agree with Rob, not a fan of Ultimo Gladiador and if he were to be replaced with someone like Gato Eveready that would only make it better in my opinion. Should be interesting to see Dr. Wagner in AAA and see if him and Mesias can co-exist. I’d like to think Wagner will stick around for a while but you can never be too sure. Interesting main event, it I was a little suprised to see the semi-main wasn’t the main and vise versa. But it seems like a fresh matchup. A lot of people seem to be missing but overall it looks pretty good.
Give Scoria a push!!!He’s an awesome Wrestler and has improved over time!!
HEY ROB, not only is Latin Lover still being booked but he’s working with Marco Corleone, I guesse he doesn’t hate Marco. WOW this just proves how wrong you were a week ago.
@Daniel: “Latin Lover and Marco is interesting on a meta-level (assuming Latin shows.)”
I wonder how committed Latin is to AAA? It obvious AAA want to use him as one of the top tecnicos but they afraid because they don’t know if Latin will show or not.
@USAUSA1: How do you figure they’re afraid he might not show. He’s only no-showed once, back in 2007 and that was AAA’s fault for not contacting him.
He hasn’t no-showed since then despite what Rob wants you to think. Remember that Rob is the guy who said the local poster advertised Latin Lover and then he showed us the poster that clearly did not advertise him, neither in writting nor with a picture.
And what is a “meta-level” anyways?
@Daniel: “How do you figure they’re afraid he might not show. He’s only no-showed once, back in 2007 and that was AAA’s fault for not contacting him.”
How do you know this? Pillow talk? You’re making an ASSUMPTION. We don’t do that here!
@Rob: Latin Lover said so in an interview that he wasn’t informed, I’m not assuming anything.
Luchador’s lie. Especially the one’s that take Al Madril’s gimmick like Latin Lover did. Now who gets that reference?
@Daniel: And the promoter of the AAA TV taping gave an interview to a fan who posted the comments about Latin being the surprise wrestler on the SatanicoManson board. So I’m not assuming anything either.
Unless of course the rules of your game only apply to Latin Lover quotes.
@Rob: There’s a difference Rob. The guy who promotes the event is not going to find out from a fan who the mystery guy is, because the promoter himself is the one who’s booking the mystery wrestler. That’s why your agrument has no credibility. It’s bullshit to be more exact.
No minis match announced-still wondering what they’ll do with Mini Abismo.
WE PROMISE NEVER TO USE THE ABISMO NEGRO NAME AGAIN
BUT IF WE PUT THE WORD MINI IN FRONT OF IT IT COUNTS AS A DIFFERENT NAME YOU GUYS.
I’m also starting to wonder if this also extends to translating the name into English.
I’d like to see Mini Abismo Negro make the jump to CMLL, under a different name. He’s been out of the loop on TV for the past year.
@tromataker: I don’t see a problem using Mini Abismo since it was used before Bismo’s death, and isn’t exploiting him. I don’t think the real Abismo would want his mini to lose a good gimmick(thus income) over his untimely death. Just my opinion.
@USAUSA1: I hope Lover is 100% AAA. This way, he won’t leave, and make CMLL tempted to use his overpriced non-box office middle aged……..
Anyone see photos anywhere of the AAA shows in Cal? I’d like to see.
@LLL: http://www.thecubsfan.com/cmll/?p=4928
Hey, I don’t think they should re-gimmick Mini Abismo, I’m just calling them on them promising that they wouldn’t use the Abismo Negro name anymore, and then kind of doing just that.
@Daniel: Dummy, the fan was reporting what the promoter said. How are you not following this? (that’s a rhetorical question)
@Rob: You said the reporter interviewed the fan. Either way it’s all bullshit. Here are the facts Rob:
-Latin was not advertised
-AAA’s site never directly said Latin was the mystery man
-You claimed he no-showed and was done with the company because of Marco Corleone, but you’ve been proven wrong as Latin is booked again and partnering with Marco.
Rob, you have lost this argument. You call me a dummy, but you’re the one making yourself look stupid by arguing something that you are clearly wrong about, and the more you argue the further you make yourself look stupid.
