AAA-US: Last Rey de Reyes qualifier, another Electroshock/Metal match, Mesias is so hurt from Park’s devastating attack that the tecnico wrestles totally normally the following week.
CMLL-US: Only God knows and he’s not returning my texts. I think other people are more excited about this return than me. When CMLL disappeared from Galavision in 2006, there was only the one hour airing on 52MX if you had that. Today, there’s four hours airing on US TV, plus up to seven more hours from Mexico that often turn up on YouTube (which didn’t have much lucha five years ago), including this same show. It’ll be a lot less of a pain to just get the show on my TV, but I could’ve found a way most weeks.
Worth noting CMLL’s made zero total mentions of this show now airing in the US (the same amount they’ve made about the Teleformula show.) I don’t think they’re opposed to being on Galavision, but it doesn’t seem to be of any particular interest or spurned on by their own interest.
52MX: maybe things get bumped around to get the veterans/Gen11 match on this show? It’s bumped off TV entirely otherwise. Ephesto/Okumura/Vangelis vs Fantasma/Sagrado/Sangre should air either way.
LATV: no idea.
GDL: Gallo/Sagrado/Sangre vs Escorpion/Misterioso/Polvora looks interesting, Felino/ReyBuc vs Dorada/Maximo leaves us with perilously few color announcers.
————-
CMLL-MEX: Only listed as one hour. They never aired Sin Piedad’s main event, and perhaps they pull the same thing here? That’d leave time for Averno/Dorada and Peste Negra vs Sombra/Rush/Toscano. Controversial opinion: I’d rather see Toscano than Mil Mascaras in 2011.
CMLL-FOX: Kami-Robo + Atlantis/Niebla/ReyBuc vs Garza/Aguila/Olimpico
C3: Atlantis/Garza/Volador vs Mascara/Sombra/Maximo
CMLL-Mega6: swing match is Maya/Starman vs Leon Blanca/Rafaga, two local who don’t make TV much.
Puebla: Loco Max/Escorpion hair match should air this week, the one week delay is back here.
Monterrey: Possibly both Tiffany/Sujei and the main event trios?
IWRG: Trios title match that hasn’t ended as I type this.

CMLL-TFN: not sure, things seem to have got derailed here.

Hey crazy lucha fans, sorry this is OT. What is the website that does all the cool lucha drawings? It’s one of the news sites, but don’t know which one.

You sir, are a great man.
i think the significance of cmll back on gala is that it’s basic cable. all other channels they’re on are either part of a premium package or you gotta pay a la carte as far as i know. either way, you gotta pay extra. with gala, you don’t. that’s gonna be added exposure that’ll help them more than any other show they have going on. for a while, there were no downloads or streams available like now. for those not willing to put in the time to look for their shows, now they don’t really have to plus they’ll get it in higher quality in a preferred medium. why gala would downplay a return to basic US cable is beyond me.
LATV had a rerun (http://www.thecubsfan.com/cmll/?p=10727 and http://www.thecubsfan.com/cmll/?p=10749) Looking forward to cmll’s gala show because I can finally watch something better than the openers on the Arena Mexico shows on MY tv rather than wait for Downloads.
Galavision aired, oddly, a Polvora/Sangre Azteca Match from January before airing the first half of Dos Leyendas. Well, I wasn’t disappointed.
