CMLL (FRI) 06/22/2012 Arena Mexico [CMLL, Kaiser Sports]
1) Molotov & Tigre Blanco b Disturbio & Inquisidor
2) Rey Cometa, Starman, Stuka Jr. DQ Puma King, Sangre Azteca, Virus
Tecnicos took falls 1/3. Puma fouled Cometa. They meet in a lightning match on Tuesday.
3) La Seductora, Lady Apache, Princesa Blanca b Dark Angel, Estrellita, Goya Kong
Rudas took straight falls. Lady Apache threw white powder in Dark Angel’s face, allowing Blanca to roll her up for the win.
4) Dragón Rojo Jr., Rey Escorpion, Último Guerrero DQ Diamante Azul, La Máscara, La Sombra
One of Rey Escorpion’s holds is called “Decapitacion Guerrera”; it’s what he used to be Sombra in the first. Tecnicos took 2/3, rudos DQed when Guerrero had Mascara beat, and Rey Escorpion put on his own hold as well, drawing an excessive violence DQ. UG was unhappy.
5) Titán b Euforia [En Busca de un Idolo]
Colombo and Atlantis were with Titan, Salazar & Guerrero were with Euforia. The secret trainer story never seems to have paid off. Euforia jumped Titan, which seemed like a risky move when Titan is now wearing wristbands with nails sticking out. They had the clock, even though it was an untimed one fall match. Titan’s mask was ripped up, Euforia’s mask was ripped off, the top of his mask removed. Handstand ropeflip moonsault for the win. All the finalists got trophy cups and flowers. Panico was part of the award presentation. Diamante was wearing his new mask. Dragon Lee was not.
6) Black Warrior, Mr. Águila, Volador Jr. b Atlantis, Delta, Guerrero Maya Jr. [MEX TRIOS]
Volador was wearing an Mr. Aguila style mask. Warrior beat Atlantis in the first, Guerrero Maya and Delta beat Volador and Aguila in the second. In the third, Mr. Aguila beat Maya, Delta beat Aguila, and Volador escaped the Atlantida to beat Atlatnis and win the titles. After the match, the rudos said Atlantis was good, but his kid partners are not experienced enough and the rudos are great. Volador and Warrior, who had a few run-ins with the old Mistico, are also not impressed with the new one.
Fuego en el Ring caught up to Titan after his win; he’s proud of raising Guadalajara’s name hi, wants to bring Triton up to the main events with him, hopes Dragon Lee does well to, and will soon start preparing for Dragon Rojo.
