5) Hijo del Fantasma & Rush vs Felino & Mr. Niebla
That’s interesting. (Not that main event.)
Guadalajara has operating under different rules since Apolo Dantes took back over, and Santo & Navarro have worked not just on the same shows as CMLL wrestlers, but the same matches despite also working with Santo. The much hyped Santo veto has had been weaker this past year. Still, Solar & Navarro working in a CMLL arena 6 days before they do the same match on Santo’s own show is weird. I think this points more to Apolo Dantes being able to do whatever he wants in Guadalajara than any big change on Santo’s status, but it’ll be interesting to see how far he can go with this.

Lucha Libre on KWHY? That station is owned and operated by NBC/Telemundo. WWE can grieve this and win.
@LLL: This is about the Masked Warriors show airing locally, right?
Boy did I misread that note about Xtreme Girl.
??? PDM’s could be Head Hunter and a local dude. Semi-main looks awesome.
Man those Sunday GDL undercarders just keep changing every week. Wonder if he’s just using guys with talent or just giving work to his friends/trainees.
Really hope CMLL isn’t doing Devitt vs Guerrero. I would think Guerrero wants to be recognized as a heavyweight and not a junior since when he goes to Japan he’s not treated as one.
@thecubsfan: Yes it is.
Scratch that. Telemundo/NBC dumped the station.
