CMLL (MON) 10/19 Arena Puebla [Fuego en el Ring]
1) Black Tiger & Lestat b Fuerza Chicana & Siki Osama

4) La Sombra, Valiente, Volador Jr. b Averno, Ephesto, Mephisto
5) Shocker, Strong Man, Toscano b Atlantis, Karisma, Último Guerrero

Karissma, not seen here since May, replaced a MIA Mr. Niebla. Strong Man took out UG with a powerbomb again. Volador, feuding with Averno on Fridays, pinned Mephisto.

SuperLuchas notes CMLL’s altered lineup for tonight’s Guadalajara lineup.

CMLL (TUE) 10/20 Arena Coliseo Guadalajara
1) El Divino & Saturno vs Acertijo & Ebola
2) Hierro & Palacio Negro vs Ángel del Mal & Drago
3) Lady Apache & Marcela vs Hiroka & Princesa Blanca
4) Blue Panther, La Máscara, Máximo vs Dragon Rojo Jr., Misterioso II, Sangre Azteca
5) Brazo de Plata, Héctor Garza, Shocker vs Black Warrior, Terrible, Texano Jr.

The big news is Super Porky has been added to the main event. It was originally a tag match, and Black Warrior is added to the rudo side. SuperLuchas notes, with the addition of Porky, Super Porky and soon Val Venis, CMLL has bulked up it’s heavyweight division (in the strangest, most eclectic way possible.) I would guess Brazo de Plata doesn’t work that IWRG and Perros date. This seems like a late change, because ESTO has an article up promoting Sunday’s show as his debut.

Besides the great stuff with Dragon Rojo, Misterioso, Stuka, and Fantsama in France and Monaco, Ras de Lona mentioned Blanca suffered a waist (maybe tailbone) injury in her title match with Lady Apache. It sounded like she was going to be out a while, so I’m surprised to see her listed here.

Ovaciones also notes IWRG will be reopening up a restaurant on the outside of Arena Naucalpan. It’ll be renamed in honor of Adolofo Moreno, who passed away last year.

Fuego en el Ring has an interview with Dragon Rojo, who has nothing against the people of Guadalajara, but wants them to know the wrestlers from La Laguna are clearly better. He unmasked Mictlan and will do bad things to Mascara Dorada if the lightweight champ crosses him. Angel de Oro is less interesting.

An artist blog has illustrations of Kid Salvaje, a lucha libre spin on Where The Wild Things Are. There’s no publisher, but the art looks great.

Al Filo del Ring writes about what tickets give the rights to the fans to do and what they do not.

Kcidis has defeated Black Warrior and a cheery Monito.

LuchaWorld has KrisZ’s news update

Mexico: 11/14

A minimal of notable events here.

Mini Charly picked up the win on Mini Psicosis in the minis match.

With no Nikki Roxx, the women’s match was changed to a tag. Rudas won, but Goddess turned up to attack them post match.

Guapito is using a walker, after the Herminadad killed him in the cage match. Decnnis vowed revenge, and got killed. So did Tiger.

4th match was just a match. AAA recaps are high on Pimpi this weekend.

Mesias, who was too hurt to wrestle on Saturday, is noted as being in perfect physical condition in the semimain. Hmmm. Cibernetico worked as a rudo and was booed, but his team still won when Zorro caned Parka and Hijo de Tirantes allowed it. Did Zorro only get a win so they could point out how Hijo de Tirantes is rudo again? I know that’s a vastly cynical way of looking at the series of events, but I think I shall go with it.

Chessman isn’t definitely stated as being in the Legion, just being allied with them here. Main event turns into a hardcore brawl, and Konnan gets his team DQed by fouling Wagner and pulling his mask.

After the match, Konnan cut a promo on Cibernetico. His point this time seems to be “Cibernetico is a star, because Mexicans don’t know who real stars are (me)”. Cibernetico, now cheered by the crowd, came out to brawl, but security kept them separated. You don’t want people fighting on a lucha libre show. Actually, I’m not sure you want those two fighting at all, but I don’t think we can avoid that.

AAA ends the recap saying the non-fight left the audience wondering what would happen if “the two biggest icons in the history of AAA” were to fight. I can’t decide who should feel most dissed by that hype – Parka? Octagon? Misterio? Maybe they should go with the two biggest rudos in the history of AAA, because at least Abismo isn’t around to be offended.

It doesn’t get said enough, but it is pretty great to get same day (even live!) taping results. I’d hope they’d mention the taping on Friday. If they even have a taping on Friday; Ovaciones today says it’s October 31st, which makes me wonder about the 10/30 taping. Confused.
