CMLL (SUN) 02/20/2011 Arena Coliseo [Cesar, CMLL]
1) Disturbio & Semental b Astro Boy & Camaleón
CMLL’s recap notes the rudo fans were chanting for Astro Boy to join their side.
2) Fabián el Gitano, Leono, Starman b Durango Kid, Hooligan, Puma King
3) Dr. X, Nitro, Skándalo b Ángel de Plata, Fuego, Guerrero Maya Jr.
4) Máximo, Sagrado, Sangre Azteca b Felino, Shigeo Okumura, Yoshihashi
Cesar reads into Sagrado being captain here as a punishment to Maximo. CMLL’s pretty random about captains.
5) La Máscara, La Sombra, Máscara Dorada DQ Averno, Ephesto, Mephisto
Finish came down to Averno vs La Mascara. Averno took advantage of Tigre Hispano getting knocked down by trying a foul, but La Mascara blocked that. Averno tried again, taking off his mask and handing it to La Mascara. Ref spotted it, called the DQ. Everyone made challenges for next week.
SuperLuchas #402 includes an interview with Mr. Niebla, who says he’ll be back in Arena Mexico on 03/04. The interview was in CMLL’s offices, so I believe him. (Unless his knee acts up again.)
Luchas 2000 #558 has Maximo & Porky vs Texano & Terrible, Mr. Niebla and Mistico. Cesar wrote about that last story – that interview claims Mistico is still with CMLL and that he’ll be on a TV interview Monday night. Meanwhile, RJ Figueroa talked to Mistico’s lawyer, who says he’s out of CMLL but still in Mexico. I’m certain Mistico is (still) headed to WWE, but he’s (still) working the shows they’ve got him scheduled for this week and any other dates he’d agreed to, and they’re probably (badly) trying to keep this quiet until that’s all done.
LuchaWorld has KrisZ’s news update and a video of Pierrothito vs Mascarita Dorada.

Inquisidor is getting a shot? I’m totally in favor of more people getting title shots, just to see what they can do.
