CMLL (SUN) 11/28 Arena Coliseo [CMLL, Cesar]
1) Mortiz & Zayco b Freesbe & Principe
2) Guerrero Maya Jr., Sensei, Tigre Blanco b Bronco, Demus 3:16, Disturbio
3) Hooligan, Pólvora, Virus b Ángel Azteca Jr., Fabián el Gitano, Fuego
4) Metro, Rush, Sagrado b Dragón Rojo Jr., Negro Casas, Sangre Azteca
5) La Sombra, Strong Man, Toscano b Atlantis, Rey Bucanero, Volador Jr.
Last week, Volador pulled off Sombra’s mask and rolled him up for the win. This week, Sombra pulled off Volador’s mask and rolled him up for the win. Sombra challenged for an apuesta match; Volador was not down for that. Next week is a fan appreciation show, so perhaps they’ll have a singles match.
Every since Dragon Rojo joined Los Guerreros, Sangre Azteca has given angry interviews about how Dragon Rojo left without telling him, he doesn’t understand why, and Dragon Rojo and he still haven’t had a chance to talk. (Here’s the most recent version, this time without accusing Ultimo Guerrero of ruining his career.) Both Sangre & Dragon were also saying they had not talked since Dragon Rojo had left the group, which seemed very unlikely. Anyway, this is CMLL, where everyone teams with everyone, and this was finally the time where Dragon Rojo teamed with Sangre Azteca again. Sangre & Dragon did not work well as a team, started accidentally hitting each other, then started arguing totally on purpose. Negro Casas tried to play peace maker, but the team still lose in two falls. Dragon and Sangre declared war on each other after the match.
Hooligan replaced Nosferatu in the tercera.
Remember Tuesday, when Mascara Sagrada Jr. lost his mask to Hijo del Dr. Wagner Jr.? Despite being best known under that name, and actually wearing his Super AAA gear, he used the “Mascara Jr.” ring name as to not offend AAA enough to get in trouble. That seems to have worked…for AAA. Arena Aficion’s deal with CMLL is now in jeopardy because CMLL feels a Mascara Jr. losing his mask is infringing on La Mascara’s name. It sounds like a decision has not been made but there are angry Brazos involved.
Maybe he really should’ve just used Mascara Sagrada Junior. As pointed out here yesterday, and as expanded on by Cesar today, Latin Lover seems completely able to use the Latin Lover name. He’s skipped around it the previous visits, but he and CMLL seem to have no concern about being prevented from using it. AAA’s threats and lawsuits may win out in the end, but no one seems particularly concerned about them right now. The only person who’s working under a different name to switch his name is LA Park, and he’s working for AAA right now.
(which means they should’ve just called the Invasors “Los Vipers” and been done with it. Maybe they’ll save it for the recharge. Cesar’s article says La Secta were talking about leaving AAA too, which is the obvious explanation for ongoing events. )
Both Arturo Rivera and Dorian Roldan took to Twitter to mock ‘serious and stable’ CMLL for using Latin Lover and other AAA cast offs.

They’re doing another father/son tournament. This time, it’s all the fathers in the semimain and the juniors in the main event. (Kinda expect that to get flipped.) Oficial Spartan is not Oficial Marshal, but it may be the other unnamed Oficial who turned up over a month ago.

I guess Mascara Sr. or Pirata Morgan could lose their hair, but there’s one name that really doesn’t belong there. Actually, two: Gran Markus Jr. looks like the obvious loser, but isn’t Rayo supposed to be in Guadalajara?
Trauma II has been gone from here since June. Didn’t get to be in the main event this time.

Did we ever get a reason as to why Trauma 2 disappeared? He was turning up on other shows, but not IWRG – was it a dispute with them, or perhaps a scheduling conflict with like, real life?
Weird – I have been reviewing lucha matches all day for Project 33, and I watched Sangre vs. Rojo from ’08. I expect big things from them. I’d say ol’ Sangre Azteca can kiss his mask goodbye…
There was a reason. It was revealed in a chat but I’m not sure if I’m supposed to say. I may have hinted at it.
Konnan footage is from 1988-89. I got the tape 10 years ago. Sorry for the confusion…
Then again, you should have known that already given you watched lots of WCW back in 2000.
Thanks. It didn’t really make sense to me but somehow I went with it anyway.
@thecubsfan: I’ll just file that under “suspension” then :-)
Why is Dr. Cerebro’s name in Red for the Thursday show but in green for the Sunday show? I thought he was a tecnico now?
Wasn’t the whole Trauma II story about him being basically a dick to the wrong person?
Did Pegasso return and I missed it? If not – why does he keep being listed in lineups? The guy basically broke his leg. He ain’t coming back 100% any time soon.
Radio CMLL says they’re transmitting Tuesday’s show.
The fact that Lover can use the name may explain why Dorian is all pissed off this time. Rivera called the CMLL front office a bunch of crooks.
AAA called Mr Niebla, Mr Niebla.
AAA called Mark Jindrak, Marco Corleone
AAA called Sean Waltman, X-pac I believe (or was it Syxx?)
AAA continued to call Art Barr the Love Machine.
AAA is the first one to bitch about wrestlers names they think that they own, but turn around and do the same damn thing.
@Tim: I don’t know what to do with the Cerberos and Terry, so sometimes I make random changes.
Traumas got in trouble with DTU about getting into a fight with the wrong person, but that wasn’t the issue in IWRG (as far as I know.)
They’re going to stop advertising Pegasso right after they stop advertising Tony Rivera.
So “Both Arturo Rivera and Dorian Roldan took to Twitter to mock ‘serious and stable’ CMLL for using Latin Lover and other AAA cast offs.”
These guys are jelouse and feel threatened by Latin Lover’s presence in CMLL because he is a legit star who can and will draw. IF Dorian wasn’t stupid AAA would still have Latin Lover.
