Ovaciones interviews Negro Casas & La Mascara, who respect their opponents but will not let DF finish second. When asked, Negro says Mistico might have been getting booed, but that doesn’t make him a rudo and figures he’ll go back to being a boring old tecnico.
AAA recaps the Pimpi/WagnerManiacos devolpments, and wonders if Pimpi will join the group. This has to be discussed on Slammin’ Stan.
Laredo Kid visited a local school to talk about his job and how kids need to train in a school before wrestling.
A title match in Cuernavaca was announced as for the local welterweight championship, but Estrellas del Ring noted the belt actually said “Torneo Novato de Oro 1996“. Ring announcer gamely attemped to cover by declaring they were actually fighting to see who was better in 1996.
Cronicas y Leyenda has part II of it’s look at Mil Mascaras vs Billy Graham.
Segunda Caida has more 06 & 07 Cassandro.
One lineup of note:
AAA (SAT) 02/27 Coliseo Centenario, Torreon
1) Esther Moreno & Goddess vs La Hechicera & Tiffany
2) El Dorado, Pimpinela Escarlata, Yuriko vs Rió Bravo, Tigre Cota, Tito Santana
3) Gronda II, Hijo del Dr. Wagner Jr., Octagón vs Monster Clown, Murder Clown, Psycho Clown
4) Black Warrior, El Elegido, La Parka Jr. vs Dr. Wagner Jr., Electroshock, Silver King
Yep, Black Warrior. He could just be back home and working this as a one off, but since there were already rumors of Warrior joining AAA, this is probably a bit more permanent. Wagner III has been working around here when not working with the Perros, so his status is a more murky. The women in the opener still do work for AAA, though you wouldn’t know it from TV.

Coliseo Centenario is huge. Wonder if it’s a Wagner Promotions show? Interesting lineup.
Felino/Sombra finish was actually Felino using a low blow after Sombra was distracted by a fake Felino who came out and stood on the ramp.
@LLL: KrisZ listed it as a Wagnermania show in his update.
Virus wrestled the Arena Mexico Semi Main Event, not Ephesto.
