Rayo/Universo, Rayo/Mendoza, Casandro

CMLL (SUN) 06/20 Arena Coliseo Guadalajara [Fuego en el Ring]
0) Javier Cruz Jr. & Nocturno b Metalik & Templario
1) El Divino & Leo b Acertijo & In Memoriam
2) Dalys la Caribeña, Dark Angel, Lluvia b Mima Shimoda, Princesa Blanca, Seuxis
3) Dragón Rojo Jr., Shigeo Okumura, Yoshihashi b Fuego, Stuka Jr., Valiente
4) El Alebrije, Histeria, Psicosis b Felino, Negro Casas, Último Guerrero
5) Rayo de Jalisco Jr. b Universo 2000

51st Anniversary show. Seemed like they drew a good crowd, but definitely not a sell out.

Universo jumped Rayo to win fall one, Rayo brawled his way to winning fall. Rayo tried to get rid of the referee for the third fall so they could settle it themselves, but the referee (Bestia Negra) was not down with that. Rayo accidentally kicked the referee in the third fall, Unvierso not accidentally fouled Rayo, but the ref was still down. Universo counted his own three, then went to check on the ref. Ref awoke, Universo turned back around, and Rayo small packaged Universo for the win.

Psicosis stole Ultimo’s mask and pinned him to win the semimain, setting up a rematch next week. They can have Ultimo Guerrero lose to Psicosis, but they couldn’t have Shocker, Fantasma or Mascara lose to him on Sin Salida? Huh.

Yoshihashi surprised Valiente with a big German suplex for the win, and was overjoyed after getting the three count.

indy (SUN) 06/20 Arena Neza [The Gladiatores]
1) Ving-Sun b Bizarro
2) Chico Che & Enrique Vera Jr. b Trauma I & Trauma II
3) Carta Brava Jr., Dunkel, Enrique Vera, Rayo Tapatío II b Dr. Muerte, Macabro Rojo, Malevolo, Vampiro Metálico
4) Negro Navarro b Ramstein [AMERICAS LH]
5) Rayo Tapatío I DQ Ray Mendoza Jr.

Mendoza jumped Rayo, tore his mask and bloodied him before winning the first fall. Rayo stole the second fall when Mendoza was over confident. Mendoza got caught fouling Rayo in the third for the DQ. By the stipulations of the match, this means these two will have a mask vs hair match. No date was announced and I wouldn’t think too much of it until one is, but Rayo Tapatio I is 46 years old and not a guy who needs to go to his grave with his mask.

Semimain was listed as Ramstein vs Skayde for Skayde’s NWA Mexico Welterweight championship. Instead of Skayde, Negro Navarro appeared defending the Americas Light Heavyweight championship. That title was held by Trauma II last anyone knew.

The Arena Azteca Budokan tribute show for Casandro looks well attended. The Gladiatores’ recap says Santo worked fourth from the top; he had to have another show to work or another place to be.

Aventurero won the FILL Light Heavyweight championship from Hator on Tuesday in Arena Coliseo Monterrey.

El Pancracio talks to the Invasors, who feel they made the right move invading CMLL, since they would’ve been out in the cold if they stuck around when Los Perros invaded AAA, and feel like that is a copy of what they’re doing. Pancracio also has interviews with Satanico and Disturbio, as well as backstage interviews from Friday’s Arena Mexico show and a report on a Tinieblas talking about his career to fans.

SuperLuchas asks “Is CM Punk’s mask a copy of Kempo Dragon’s?” No, probably not. Though I do see the similarity.

Rob reviews a ton of mid November ’09 lucha.
