Dragon Rojo has a plan to beat Valiente for the title: Valiente tires fast, so he’s going to fight at a high rate to tire him out. I think this might’ve worked better with a previous year’s version of Valiente, but we’ll see. What I really want is the interview with Sangre Azteca about his partner/protege getting a shot at his title before Sangre gets a chance to win it back.
Matuk has video of the AAA demo showed off last week. There is that Zombie Clown footage (under that name) and he looks really good. Not so sure about the collision detection, or the 10 second countout. Pepe Casas is very visible as the tecnico ref. Watch as the power goes out part way thru the interview, but they keep plugging along anyway.
Fuego en el Ring has an interview with Ultimo Guerrero, who sounds as though he still expects CMLL to run a Gran Prix tournament to close the year. I wonder if they’re still doing the Leyenda de Plata. UG says he has plans for the Guerrero, but they’re waiting for Bucanero to get healthy.
During a typical “wrestler teaches TV host some moves” segment, Martha Villalboos supposedly hurt the host’s right arm. The host – Alicia Machado – is a former Miss Universe of some note and scandal. Haven’t seen the clip, but I’d guess this was stunt.
Box Y Lucha has interviews with Delta and Diamante about their starts and one with Ultimo Dragoncito and his father, who’s even more badly burnt than Dragoncito. It’s quite an intense picture, you may want to skip it. Dragoncito was told he’d have to be out three months, but is pushing himself to get back in 2. Villano III talks about a fan sneaking into the locker room.
ESTO has an interview with long time CMLL Photographer Rosalio Vera. Beside the 101 Llaves y Lances book, another book of his photographs is supposed to come out next year.
El Siglo de Torreon totally uses the luchawiki for it’s then and now of photos of Ephesto. Which reminds me, we need an updated photo of Ephesto.
Segunda Caida is mostly disappointing with IWRG 07/30/09

Martha Villalboos should’ve gave Alicia Machado a seton or a plancha. Good for Martha.
Man I feel bad for Dragoncito. He looks awful and his father even worse. I really hope CMLL takes care of him while he is out since he’s been loyal to them from day one. He says in the article they haven’t done anything yet…
HOW DID THAT WHOLE THING WITH ULTIMO DRAGONCITO & HIS FATHER HAPPEN???
The AAA game actually doesn’t look horrible. Sure, the animations are shaky as all hell, but it can’t be any worse than the TNA game.
I can’t lie, my heart sank when I saw that picture of Dragoncito and his dad.
