Alex Koslov is still in AAA. If you didn’t believe me before, and if you didn’t read Meltzer mocking the angle in yesterday’s Observer, here’s two articles that might get you to believe:
– Alex Koslov told Record he’s planning to sue AAA to get his job back, claiming unfair dismissal. Which doesn’t quite flow from neither the angle where he was fired for losing a match he agreed to, either from the fake-shoot-angle where he was leaving AAA for opportunities elsewhere.
– Luchas2000 included an interview with CMLL’s booking crew, who said they had not heard from Alex and would definetly not be bringing Alex back.
This is just a vacation, during a slow period in spot shows. (Slow enough that people are complaining to the Observer about it; not enough work is the reason cited for Oriental leaving.)
Shocker explains the new Guapos will be himself and Jon Strongman, because they don’t need anyone else. In fact, they’ll be so great together, they could battle trios, or atomicos, or five men teams, or street musicians, or soccer teams that want to tkae on the Guapos. It’s good to believe in yourself.
Speaking of shows, CMLL has an odd looking schedule next week, moving shows on to accommodate Independence Day on Wednesday

This replaces the usual Arena Mexico show. Sunday is also an Arena Coliseo show, with the idea that Arena Mexico will be shut down for the week leading up the anniversary show. IWRG will be moving it’s Thursday’s show to Wednesday as well.
La Raza has a preview of Lucha Va Voom in Chicago, including what looks like an actual lineup of matches. No way that can be right.
The Gladiatores has interviews with Nosawa and Oriental.
LuchaWorld has KrisZ’s news updates.

“Héctor Garza, Hijo del Fantasma, La Máscara vs Averno, Ephesto, Mephisto [CMLL TRIOS]” Title change alert.
Yeah, I can’t see them failing at the titles for the third time in less than 6 months. Should be a good match (better than the Puebla mess) and hopefully we can get some nice title matches vs Dorada/Valiente/Sagrado and Guerrero/Atlantis/Bucanero when he’s healthy.
Maybe they’re doing the Giant Silva gimmick with Strongman where he = 2 wrestlers.
BTW, LATV’s youtube put up a video hyping their CMLL program. No mention that it’s all repeats from over a year ago.
Ooohhh… a title change could turn the Anniv. show especial into a title match!

I’d go there, but i’m not. So I won’t. But that’s funny.
So does that XLAW stuff just not have stips listed, or did they stop doing all that barbed wire stuff?
