5) El Mesías, Extreme Tiger, Jack Evans vs Halloween, Héctor Garza, Nicho el Millionario

Air Date: 04/08

Lineup via AAA.

Mostly just a taping to fill TV, nothing really popping out as an important- of the three native guys who had the biggest roles on Rey de Reyes (LA Park, Perro, and Mesias), only the new champ in on the show. No Teddy Hart either. AAA seems to be teasing something with Nicho and his old Psicosis mask, so maybe more on that here?

Halloween did say he would work whatever scheduled dates, and perhaps he had many of them. Or they ran out of Perros. It feels like Consejo should be treated like a bigger deal than them, but they’re in a semimain rematch and three Perros who aren’t really doing anything are on top.

Daga may or may not actually be back in time for his match.

Sexy Lady or Ludark Shaitan making their TV debut makes sense as the mystery luchadora. Not sure how they do a lumberjack match as an opener.

Next taping is two days later in Pachuca.

5) Hijo del Dr. Wagner Jr. & Rossy Moreno b Chik Tormenta & Hijo de LA Park
6) El Mesías & Joe Lider DQ Blue Demon Jr. & Último Gladiador
Ultimo Gladiador replaced Daga, and fouled Lider for the DQ. Mesias & Demon challenged each other for title matches.

CMLL (TUE) 03/20/2012 Arena Mexico [CMLL]
1) Bobby Zavala, Cholo, Disturbio b Freesbe, Robin, Soberano Jr.
2) Aereo, Eléctrico, Fantasy b Pequeño Nitro, Pequeño Universo 2000, Pequeño Warrior
3) Dragon Lee b Raziel [Toreno Sangre Nueva]
Dragon Lee took falls 1/3 to win the tournament.
4) Diamante Azul, Fuego, La Sombra b Rey Bucanero, Terrible, Tiger
Fuego replaced Fantasma. Tecnicos took falls 2/3 to win, Diamante Azul suplexing Terrible after a screw up with La Comandante.
5) La Máscara b Psicosis
Mascara took the last two falls. Psicosis unmasked Mascara with the ref distracted, but Mascara covered up and fouled him to get the pin.

According to a poster on CMLL’s Facebook Wall, the Tijuana show using CMLL wrestlers was promoted by Psicosis using a local promoter’s license, and the promoter is now canceling future shows with Psicosis. According to the promoter, Psicosis did not pay any of the local luchadors (sorry Mortiz), did not play the required cleaning costs for the arena, did not pay ticket printing costs, and did not pay for advertising. The promoter does seem to think he’s talking to Paco Alonso by posting on the CMLL Facebook, so maybe he’s not a totally trustworthy source, but it does not sound good.

Kcidis draws the new, lonely, Rey de Reyes. For his part, Perro Aguayo says Los Perros del Mal are stronger than ever after his win. The promotion has a new poster, featuring Perro, Hector Garza, and a whole lot of people who work for AAA. Zumbi is on the poster, which is surprising since he appears to be with the FdT crew.

Lineups

CMLL (TUE) 03/27/2012 Arena Coliseo Guadalajara
1) Brillante & Virgo vs In Memoriam & Metalik
2) Black Metal & Sensei vs Inquisidor & Magnum
3) Goya Kong & Marcela vs La Comandante & Princesa Blanca
4) Diamante Azul & Rush vs Mr. Águila & Terrible
5) Atlantis & Máscara Dorada vs Averno & Mephisto

An all pairs match show. Top two are listed as a double main event.

No sign of the 03/30 Friday show they had previously announced. Plans change?

IWRG AAA (SUN) 04/08/2012 Arena Naucalpan
1) Charly Madrid & The Mummy vs Chicano & Miss Gaviota
2) La Chiva, Ludark Shaitan, Mascarita Divina vs Mini Charly Manson, Sexy Lady, Tiger Lee
3) Aerostar, Argenis, Drago vs Oficial 911, Oficial AK47, Oficial Fierro
4) Negro Navarro, Trauma I, Trauma I vs Fabi Apache, Gran Apache, Mari Apache
5) La Parka Jr. & Taboo vs Dr. Wagner Jr. & Hijo del Dr. Wagner Jr. and Silver King & Silver King Jr.

This is listed as an AAA show, but appears to be a Wagner Promociones one. They’re the only ones using Taboo. Family vs Family theme thru the show. It’s the first match of Silver King Jr., but it wouldn’t be a surprise if he’s one of the Silver King trainees who’ve been here and or in Neza the last few months.

Tercera is “AAA Family” vs “IWRG Family”, while the opener is Wagner trainees vs IWRG ones. Segunda is family members vs each other – which means La Chiva & Tiger Lee are related?

recap

taped 2012-02-28 @ Arena Mexico

Demus is crazy

Bengala & Robin vs Cholo & Ramstein : basic opening match. Nothing much of interest. Bengala is good enough to a level above this, but you need guys like him to keep these matches from being poor.

 

Cacao

Astral, Fantasy, Pequeño Halcón vs Demus 3:16, Pequeño Nitro, Pierrothito : despite Pequeño Nitro being off on Mars multiple times during this match (wrong place, lots of the time), this was really good. Surprisingly so considering the iffy técnico side. It was very rudo dominated, but didn’t follow usual form – no beatdown, no comeback, no big dives, just the one at the end that was counted. Pierrothito is underrated as an athlete, and Demus seems like one of the most over luchadors in CMLL.

Fuego, Mr. Cacao, Pegasso vs Arkángel de la Muerte, Nitro, Skándalo : This is total build to a tag match in another promotion I probably will never see. It wasn’t bad, but it didn’t feel like I really need to see the tag match. Cacao is different than the CMLL técnicos, but he’s more notable for getting Arkangel to do stuff than his own actions.

 

Warrior making sure this pin counts

Black Warrior, Sagrado, Sangre Azteca vs Morphosis, Shigeo Okumura, Vangelis : Black Warrior is NOT on the list of people allowed to lose trying leglocks. This was a match that happened and that’s OK.

 

this seems vaguely illegal

Atlantis, Delta, Guerrero Maya Jr. vs Rey Bucanero, Terrible, Tiger : strong win for the challengers, to set them up as the challengers. Técnicos only got in the sneak first fall win and the run of offense in the third fall. This was not an exceptional match by itself but it did make me want to see next week’s match.
