CMLL (TUE) 08/21/2012 Arena Coliseo Guadalajara [MegaCable]
2) Exterminador & Malefico COR Demonio Maya & Ráfaga
Rafaga & Demonio Maya took 1/3. Exterminador was hurt on a tope in the third, grabbing his face. Malefico beat Demnio Maya, Rafaga armbared Malefico, and Exterminador could not return to the ring before the countout. Rafaga knocked Exterminador off the strecher post match.
3) Barbaro Cavernario b Stuka Jr., Fuego, Halcon de Plata, Leo, Virus, Raziel, Sádico [OCCIDENTE MIDDLE, semifinal, cibernetico]
Particapants not confirmed Participants
4) Psicosis b Hijo del Fantasma
One fall match, but not a lightning match. Mije was with Psicosis. Psicosis jumped Fantamsa, and him with a giant poster. Psicosis avoided the Phantom Lariat, flapjacked Fantamsan, and put him in an Indian Deathlock for his first CMLL singles win.
5) La Sombra, Super Porky, Valiente b Euforia, Terrible, Tiger
Tecnicos take 2/3.

3) Fuego, Rey Cometa, Stuka Jr. DQ Namajague, Puma King, Shigeo Okumura
Puma fouled Cometa and pulled his mask for good measure. After the match, Cometa yelled at him on the microphone until Puma superkicked him.

Rey Escorpion won with a cradle piledriver in 6:53. Sagrado was strechered out.
5) Blue Panther, Hijo del Fantasma, Super Porky b Averno, Ephesto, Niebla Roja
6) Ángel de Oro, Titán, Valiente b Felino, Mr. Niebla, Negro Casas
Angel de Oro defeated Negro Casas via casita and challenged him to a title match.
CMLL posted one two three video promos for 09/14. They hype the two matches, but also focus on Mistico (who does not yet have announced match for that show.)
AAA has plans for internationalization “in late 2012 or 2013”. I see the goalposts moving. (Article also says “they’re very close to getting to the US, but can’t talk about it.”)
LuchaWorld has KrisZ’s news update.
Rob has highlights of 01/02 & 01/09/12 Puebla and 09/28/2011 Perros del Mal.
Bill has highlights of 07/28/2011 IWRG and 08/11/2011 IWRG
