Feel free to comment about the show in the comments. Not bothering with cover it live – we’ll see if WordPress can handle the traffic! I’ll be updating here, maybe in the comments, maybe on twitter, maybe still distracted by this 2-2 game. Edit: Spoke too soon.
As of 9, radio was still doing soccer coverage. May be a while.
Pachuca won 3-1 over Queretaro. Now you know.
There’s no way we’re getting results for the opener. I notice SuperLuchas isn’t bothering with live results! This will allow me to catch up on the all important Alexa rankings. (Do you think they’d do live results for X-LAW?)
9:26: Are they on? As soon as they get the introductions done, yes
9:34: Semimain is on. Or at least introductions are on. No idea on the first two matches.
3) La Sombra, Mistico, Volador Jr. vs Atlantis, Mr. Niebla, Ultimo Guerrero
Fall 1: tecnicos
Fall 2: tecncios – rudos Mistica on UG, rudos yank Mistico’s mask. Thought it was a DQ, but apparently not? They’re still wrestling, you see. Or hear. Whatever.
Fall 2: rudos – Mistica on UG, but UG tosses his mask off to draw the DQ.
Fall 3: tecnicos by DQ, Mistico doing the mask yank fake.
Plenty of time to set up that cage.
Atlantis chats with the announcers. I’m going to go make some popcorn.
10:00 Entrances going on for the main event…

?) Ray Mendoza Jr.
?) Negro Casas
– Garza and Warrior both do dives instead of leaving.
11) Hector Garza
12) Black Warrior (!)

Final is Toscano vs Naito. For real. Crowd is about as thrilled as you’d expect.
Naito beats Toscano with a Tiger Suplex. I swear, the call was like “uno, dos…tres?” If you’re going to have the final two be THAT final two, that’s actually the right finish.
Earlier

2) Hijo del Fantasma, La Mascara, Sagrado vs Averno, Ephesto, Mephisto

The announcer seems so bored that he just gave away the finish – Toscano over Warrior.
Shocker is out, knocking Texano Jr back into the ring with a punch from the top of the cage. Flood control is in effect.
texano out
Repeat: Toscano, Garza, Warrior, Mendoza, Negro, Japanese duo are left.
(Texano escaped so now that statement is true.)
Excellent time for a break.
Three members of Los Shitheads remain.
Chug if CMLL is dumb enough to mistime the match so the radio has to take a planned commercial during the closing moments of the main event.
Figure about 4 guys left in the cage by the time they get back.
Negro Casas escaped during the break. Ray Mendoza out as well. Hector Garza could have left, but does a tornillo off the top of the cage.
Black Warrior could have left, but planchas Toscano.
Garza is out
Toscano, Warrior, Japs.
Warrior vs Toscano as the final?
Wow, Warrior is the best worker left (not that it matters in a match like this). That’s sad.
Warrior is out
black warrior is out
Oh my god Toscano is gonna rape one of the Japanese guys.
I mean… Toscano will RAPO one of the Japanese guys.
That’s exactly what I meant.
Hector Garza finally out. Debated whether or not to come back and help Toscano.
Toscano, Black Warrior, and No Limit still in the cage. The crowd is booing.
Black Warrior is out.
Naito vs Toscano left in the cage final. Announcers debate how the crowd will react to this final.
So there’s only Toscano vs Naito? What happened to JUJIRO? Did he fall asleep?
This match has been very boring to listen to. I hope it ends in two minutes, since that is when I have to leave to catch the bus home from work.
TOSCANO.
THE FACE OF CMLL IN 2009!
*blows brains out*
Toscano stripping.
Where’s Daniel?
@Rob: LMAO!!!! im cheering for naito
Toscano’s daughter more interesting than the match.
@Anonymous: So am I. ” Shit Head … Shit Head.
If this is airing live right now I wonder if they’ll just air it tomorrow on TV for the heck of it. Out of all 4 matches tonight I know this the one I deseperately wanted to see.
Naito near fall after chained suplex/top rope splash
Is there a Spanish version of the song, “You’re a Sap, Mr. Jap”?
Toscano with an Eddy Guerrero three amigos, gets a two count.
Popcorn really too buttery. Need water.
@J. Corzo Cubby: Take your bus! Don’t stay for this, you’ll forever regret it.
LMAO
WOOOO NAITO WON!!!!!
Maybe let’s make the guy with chronic neck issues take a Tiger Suplex, okay?
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHv
who is anonymous? xchui?
Wait, that actually happened?
Naito wins in exchange for Mistico taking home the IWGP Jr. Title?
Is this the MLB Trade Deadline thread?
What time does Infierno En El Ring start?
“Toscano (-1%, 0 Votes)”
Anonymous not me
tarzan boy that crybaby!!!!
Wait a minute Naito won ?!?!? Toscano the face of CMLL 2009 , ha haha ha haha hahhahaahh haha.
@xuisaw: Fredo thought it might be me.
Well, it’s a surprising ending. Not bad.
Superluchas was too busy watching smackdown to care about ArMex
@xuisaw: LOL. So true.
@xuisaw: If so, they made the right call.
They just said September for the anniversary show.
There’s definitely something to CMLL needing to change their imagine by doing some surprising finishes but you gotta have SOME logic when you choose a winner and a loser. I guess uno de los japoneses is going to lose his hair anyways so this builds him up a little bit but it’s still a dumb decision.
I mean if CMLL just wants to prove they are all about surprise why not have Averno beat Mistico in a mask match in September? (Please don’t respond to that Keith)
damn it already ended.
it sounds like they rushed this match for the live airing on SKY. Notice it started at 11:00, and the match was over by 11:25.
@Rob: Hi Rob!
I’m curious if it drew well and how much the disapointing ending will effect future attendance.
