IWL (SUN) 10/16/2011 Auditorio de San Francisco Chilpan [Estrellas del Ring]

ATM replaced Low Rider, Tribal & Ninja de Fuego replaced Genesis.
7) Davey Richards & Juventud Guerrera b Mike Segura & Super Crazy
Daga and Heddi were supposed to team with Super Crazy; Segura switched to that side instead.
8) 2 Tuff Tony, Mad Man Pondo, Necro Butcher b Ángel o Demonio, León Rojo, Ovett and Cerebro Negro, Fantasma de la Ópera, Sepulturero I
Cerebro’s ATM team was the first out. Perico intefered, and helped Leon Rojo suplex Necro Butcher on a table for the win.

Daga not showing up after vacating his title and losing those matches is interesting. Maybe he just had somewhere else to be on Sunday. The first three shows in this tour are said to have drawn 800 people combined. That’s actually better than it looked to me. I hope that’s what they were expecting.

No results from Puebla, but TRT won in the main event, which sets up a Texano/Lyger title match.

Other News

Tonight’s Arena Mexico show includes the Silueta vs Ray title match. It’d be a big surprise if Silueta won the title, but this is interesting to see what they can do in a singles match at this point.

Joaquin Roldan says he talked to Octagon & Parka just two hours before the show about not letting La Sociedad ruin the show, so he was as shocked as anyone that they turned. Joaquin says they’re defrauding Pena and the fans with their actions, and the young AAA wrestlers will have to step up. I see Electroshock/Super Fly situations on the horizon.

AAA’s promising a statement from Octagon later today. La Parka is supposed to explain himself on Friday’s TV taping.

At a press conference to hype the 10/30 show in Arena Monterrey (with Demon & Santo), Rayo de Jalisco said this show would rescue Mexican wrestling.

CMLL continues to hype mysterious new wrestler, does not mention when or where he might be appearing. They should at least wait until they’re back on TV, but one never knows with this group.

LuchaWorld has KrisZ’s news update.

Random stuff noticed when leafing thru recent lucha magazines

• IWRG says they’re talking to TV Azteca about a deal to air TV on Sundays on both TV Azteca and Azteca America. They were careful to say no deal has been signed.
• Peresus of Nuevo Laredo (the QPPC finalist with the YouTube channel, I think) is another son of Sangre Chicana. He’s also got another daughter wrestling in addition to Lluvia.
• Camaleon is 32 and has been wrestling for 12 years! I couldn’t tell.

Lucha Libre in Japan:

10/18 AJPW: Ozz [O] & Cuervo b Kenzo & Kaz Hayashi [X]
I don’t think Cuervo has directly won a match.

Arkangel beat Mr. Cacao on Mr. Cacao’s show.

AAA Verano de Escandalo airs tonight (or did air tonight) on Samurai TV. Interesting that they hype up Ozz & Cuervo’s participation, but then they’re in Japan right now.  The full Anniversary show airs later this month; the opener is the only match not to turn up in some form.

Lineups

IWRG (THU) 10/20/2011 Arena Naucalpan
1) Astro de Plata, Astro Rey Jr., Bugambilia del Norte vs Alan Extreme, Dark Devil, Imposible
2) Dinamic Black, Multifacético, Oficial Spartans vs Apolo Estrada Jr., Comando Negro, King Drako
3) Cien Caras Jr., Hijo de Máscara Año 2000, Máscara Año 2000 Jr. vs Oficial 911, Oficial AK47, Oficial Fierro
4) Golden Magic, Hijo del Dr. Wagner Jr., Súper Nova vs Bestia 666, Hijo de Pirata Morgan, Pirata Morgan

via KrisZ. Main event is interesting. Oficials have better things to do than feud with Spartans. In surely unrelated news, the Castle of Terror show is just around the corner.

CMLL (SUN) 10/23/2011 Arena Coliseo Guadalajara
1) In Memoriam vs Ángel del Mal
2) El Alteño & Magnum vs Exterminador & Ráfaga

4) Héctor Garza vs Rey Bucanero

What??? Someone sat down and decided no people who are actually a team are allowed to team in this tournament of teams. So silly. I had to go look back at my notes to figure out why Bucanero and Garza are having a singles match (a foul last week, one week build.)

CMLL (MON) 10/24/2011 Arena Puebla
1) Camaleón, Metatrón, Stigma vs Artillero, Sauron, Súper Comando
2) Bam Bam, Eléctrico, Último Dragoncito vs Demus 3:16, Pequeño Nitro, Pierrothito

4) Blue Panther, La Máscara, La Sombra vs Dragón Rojo Jr., Negro Casas, Volador Jr.

Moderate chance of a title change there.

IWRG WAGNER (SUN) 10/16/2011 Arena Naucalpan[The Gladiatores]
***Dr. Wagner Sr. Passing 7th Anniversary***
1) Blazer b Silver Star (11), Avalon
All three are Silver King students.
2) Alan Extreme, Carta Brava Jr., Eterno b Astro Rey Jr., Dinamic Black, Golden Magic [lumberjack strap]
Eterno beat Golden Magic with a Super Styles Clash. Money was thrown in after the match.
3) Jennifer Blake & Sexy Star b Ludark Shaitan & Sexy Lady
turned into a hardcore match.
4) Joe Lider & Oficial 911 b Oficial AK47 & Violento Jack [Relevos Increíbles]
turned into a hardcore match. Lider pinned AK-47 with some lamps involved. The DTU guys (with Crazy Boy) challenged the Oficials to a rematch.
5) Monster Clown, Murder Clown, Nicho el Millionario b Electroshock, Psycho Clown, Último Gladiador [Relevos Increíbles]
Straight falls for the Nicho team, with Silver King running into foul Electroshock.
6) Silver King L La Parka and Taboo and Dr. Wagner Jr. [Relevos Increíbles, cage, IWRG IC HEAVY]
Parka, Taboo, and Wagner wagered their masks, Silver put his IWRG Heavyweight title on the line (so he was clearly losing.) Recap says the match lasted nearly an hour. Vikingo and Ultimo Gladiador came in the cage to help Silver King, then left. Turned into a hardcore match. Taboo and Silver King left to tease Parka vs Wagner for the masks, but then Taboo came back. Taboo started to leave again, Silver fought him at the top of the cage, then Electroshock joined in to fight both of them. Parka & Wagner climbed out the other side in the meantime, and Electro & Taboo dumped Silver back in the cage. Taboo wins the title by being the second to last one out.

Silver King invaded IWRG with the AAA guys, beat the IWRG pretty thoroughly, and IWRG gets the big win back by…uh, Taboo winning the title by escaping the cage. This is why IWRG is IWRG.
