Good performance from the AAA wrestlers, but the rudos took 2/3 to take the fight.

Golden Magic won the last two falls to take the match, winning via 450 splash.

Black Terry Jr. already has video of Carta Brava Jr. vs Golden Magic: fall 1, fall 2, fall 3. No video of the segunda yet, but BT Jr. raved about it on Twitter.
Lucha Libre USA
Matches for tommorow’s LLUSA redebut.
(all from 12/12/2010)
1) Rellik & Sydistiko vs Oriental & Tinieblas Jr.
2) Mini Park vs Rosetta Park [lumberjack]
3) Lizmark Jr. vs Marco Corleone, RJ Brewer, Charly Malice [LLUSA HEAVY]
According to PWInsider’s conversation with the people running the group, they’ve got a 13 episode season. They’ve taped far more than 13 episodes, so some of that is not airing for a long time. Charly was still working here thru March, so he’ll be on almost all of this season. Sydistiko is Paul London taking over the role from TJP. They’re planning on running house shows after TV gets rolling.
It looks like the group has gotten some attention by pushing the RJ Brewer vs Mexicans feud to the media. They’re also pushing a chat with Lizmark Jr. tonight if you sign up for the Lucha Libre USA fan club.
Other news
Colt Cabana’s Art of Wrestling podcast has a really interesting interview with Ricky Marvin, who talks about growing up as the son of a luchador who didn’t want his sons to be luchadors, his first match and his start in Japan. Ricky struggles a little bit with English but the content is very good.
The Sin Cara vs Black Sin Cara promo on tonight’s SmackDown includes “Mistico” being said by Hunico in reference to their previous issues, which is the first time that name has been used on the English version of the show. The announcers do not elaborate, but strongly push the idea that there will be only 1 Sin Cara after Sunday’s PPV. (Though you don’t have to wait until Sunday if you check out Kicids poster today.)
Rush explains that his high position in CMLL is due to his effort, and he’ll prove he deserves it in the cage. He’s looking to face Texano and help Blue Panther.
CMLL Gaceta has profiles of Rey Bucanero, Hector Garza, Blue Panther, Felino, Texano Jr., and Terrible. They’ve already posted Negro Casas & Rush profiles, so just Mr. Aguila is left out in preparationfor the cage match.
The AAA facebook page says the semimain in Leon – Metal/Electro/Lider/Chessman/Silver/Gladiador is a ladder match with a guitar hanging from the ceiling, and the first person to smash the guitar over someone else wins. If they actually do ‘near falls’ with the guitar, like near misses in a table match, that could be sort of amusing.

2 Tuff Tony is a roadie (i believe) and wrestler known for his work mostly with ICP’s Juggalo Championship Wrestling. He also worked a match with TNA.
@Chk: he was also a main player in the earlier days of Ian Rotten’s IWA.
Dude’s mostly a garbage wrestler, but he can be entertaining. I think he also tours Big Japan frequently with Pondo.
2TT is like Pondo-lite.
I think Daga vs Richards could be great… I think it will be more pseudo-Japanese style than “pure lucha” though.
Richards is atrocious. I would rather watch Heddi Karroui or Big Mama vs. Daga
@Travis:
Thanks, I wasn’t aware of that.
