Piratas win in IWRG, Shadow Phoenix headed home, Terrible

IWRG (SUN) 06/24/2012 Arena Naucalpan [Estrellas del Ring]
1) Eita & Imposible b Centvrión & Charly Madrid
Eita replaced Alan Extreme
2) Chicano & Dr. Cerebro b Carta Brava Jr. & Heddi Karaoui
No Dinamic Black, Eita was moved to the previous match.
3) Head Hunter, Súper Nova, X-Fly b Danny Casas, Niko, Veneno
Poor debut for Niko.
4) Hijo de Pirata Morgan & Pirata Morgan b Danny Casas & Ultraman and Bestia 666 & Damián 666 and Hijo de Mascara Sagrada & Máscara Sagrada and Hijo del Pantera & Pantera and Cien Caras Jr. & Hijo de Máscara Año 2000 [Gran Legado]
Danny Casas replaced Ultraman Jr., Cien Caras Jr. replaced Mascara Ano 2000. Final three were Bestai 666, Hijo del Pirata Morgn and Hijo de Mascara Ano 2000. The fathers remained at ringside as seconds, and conspired to eliminate Bestia 666, then Pirata moonsaulted Mascara for the win

IWRG’s website says Shadow Phoenix is returning home to Mexico, “without his mask, proving Mexico wrestling is the best.” He may return, someday. Next Sunday will have the return of Mascara Sagrada, and a Juniors title match between Bestia 666 vs Hijo de Mascara Ano 2000 for the Juniors titles.

Terrible says his whole game plan was making sure to escape Yujiro’s finishing hold. Mission accomplished. The Japanese may make computers and cars, but Terrible said he showed the Mexicans can prove their intelligence in the ring. Yujiro was not as eager to do the mask/hairs vs mask/hairs match after the loss.

6) Marco Corleone, Máximo, Rush vs Kráneo, Olímpico, Psicosis [CMLL TRIOS]
Bufete are the champs

I can’t believe I’m posting lineups for July already. I also can’t believe Marco and amigos are in any danger here.

Interesting assortment of people for the semimain.

Mr. Cacao posted that he’d be working this show (which should air live on Terra), Puebla on Monday, and Arena Mexico on Tuesday. And so will Arkangel and probably Fuego & Skandalo.

CMLL (SUN) 07/01/2012 Arena Coliseo Guadalajara
1) El Divino & Halcon de Plata vs Gran Kenut & Infierno
2) Esfinge, León Blanco, Metatrón vs Èvola, Exterminador, Taurus
3) Dark Angel & Luna Mágica vs Princesa Blanca & Tiffany
4) Leo vs Barbaro Cavernario [hair]
5) Valiente vs Último Guerrero

I would have been hyped for Valiente vs UG in 2009. I would still be hyped for Valiente vs just about anyone in 2012 (the match with Namajague was fun!).

By process of elimination, Javier Cruz Jr. must’ve lost his hair last week. And the winner of this match will face themselves in a hair match next week.

Speaking of bald people, the tercera could be the first bald match for one of those four. (It probably won’t be, those four seem pretty safe.)
