CMLL (MON) 08/31 Arena Puebla [El Manana]
5) Héctor Garza, Hijo del Fantasma, La Máscara b Felino, Mr. Niebla, Negro Casas [CMLL TRIOS]
Rudos took the first, tecnicos took the second, Negro beat Fantasma, but Mascara & Garza beat Negro & Niebla for the succesful defence.
CMLL (TUE) 09/01 Arena Mexico [Record, ESTO]
1) Escorpion & Semental ?? Diamante & Molotov
2) Guerrero Maya Jr., Metálico, Tigre Blanco DQ Hooligan, Pólvora, Tiger Kid
3) Euforia, Nosferatu, Skándalo b Fabián el Gitano, Pegasso, Rey Cometa
4) Héctor Garza, Hijo del Fantasma, La Máscara DQ Averno, Ephesto, Mephisto
5) La Sombra, Místico, Volador Jr. b Felino, Mr. Niebla, Último Guerrero
Record notes Mistico hasn’t lost since the Anniversary match was announced. Mistico got Niebla here.
Mephisto fouled Hector Garza, which led to the tecnicos challenging for mask vs hairs match, which is normal. According to Record, the rudos actually accepted, which is very much not normal. ESTO just has the challenge, and CMLL hasn’t said anything on their website. (They updated the photos on the Tuesday recap this morning, but not so much the text.)
No word on the DQ in the second match, but at least Guerrero Maya’s injury from Friday doesn’t seem severe. No result for the opener, but Escorpion is clearly Escorpion Negro. He’s still wearing his Metrosexual gear – maybe Shocker can recruit him for the Guapos too!
CMLL (TUE) 09/01 Arena Coliseo Guadalajara [Fuego en el Ring]
1) Idolo & Thunder Boy b Relampago & Skaxy
2) Ebola & In Memoria b El Divino & Magnum
3) Neutrón & Palacio Negro b Mr. Trueno & Rey Trueno
4) Flash, Mictlán, Stuka Jr. DQ Máscara Mágica, Misterioso II, Vangelis
5) Terrible & Texano Jr. b Shocker & Toscano
Terrible got the deciding pin on Toscano with his feet on the ropes. Mascara Magica destroyed Mictlan again, making him bleeding and fouling him for the DQ.
AAA “reminds us” (of something none of who weren’t there have seen yet): Konnan vowed to return for the Antontio Pena show, which I take just to mean he won’t be on this weekend’s taping. AAA also catches up with Sugi, who’s knee injury is not serious but he says it’s the first one he’s ever had, and posts the obligatory we wish Alex well in his future endovers post. Meanwhile, Alex writes about Hector stealing his stop sign and the joy of blasting people via the press. This explains 90% of Mistico’s interviews.
Cesar guesses John Strongman will be successful, but won’t be around long.
Ras de Lona #61 is 90% about the anniversary show.

Has Ayako Hamada ever been romantically linked to a male wrestler like her sisters? I’m trying to crush someone’s dreams and say she plays for the other team
@Rondo: Samoa Joe when he worked Japan regularly.
Jose tells a great story about how Gran Apache used to stand outside the showers after his daughters would finish wrestling and make sure nobody bothered them. Contrast that with Gran Hamada once being on the same show as his daughters and a Mexican wrestler (I forget who – maybe Black Warrior?) asked him “where is your daughter?” and the proud father replied “probably fooling around with someone out back.”
@Rob: Superboy told me about a weird conversation he had with Gran Apache and his views on training female wrestlers. Best part was Superboy’s Gran Apache impersonation when telling us about it. Kind of freaked us out since I believe Gran Apache trained his own daughters.
Ayako is probably bi. I don’t really see the attraction anymore. She was kind of cute 10 years ago but she’s not aged well.
Hector Garza does do the stop thing better than Alex Koslov. Maybe Alex can go back to CMLL and he and Hector can have a feud over that.
Having seen Hamada live just days ago, I could certainly believe her playing for the other team. Not a very attractive woman at all. Helluva wrestler, though.
On a side note, Dark Angel is even more attractive in person than on TV. Her autograph skills impress the hell out of me, too.
I remember hearing something about her and X-Fly (Original Mosco) years ago.
What exactly are “impressive autograph skills”? Does she draw a cool picture with it like how Balzac Jaws of Death draws himself when he signs?
@tromataker: I mean that she had the amazing ability to snatch a program out of a random hand and quickly sign a nice signature, no problem. With either of her hands. It’s hard to explain, but it was something I observed as I watched her make her way around ringside (while I stood in line to pay too much money for a picture with Mick Foley).
Lesson of the day kids, all ugly women are lesbians
I was going to say these responses will make Cubs think twice before mentioning any Ayako news again… and then I realized Cubs never even mentioned her in the original post.
