Kaiser Sports has two part interview with Puma King about the big mask match. His big point of emphasis is he’s proud to be part of the Casas family, but he wants to prove he can do it on his own. Puma wants to raise the name “Puma King” high, so don’t expect to see a family member in his corner, though he does say he’ll celebrate with them after. Puma feels he has the advantage in this match; he’s seen Rey Cometa wrestle for years so he knows all Cometa will do, but he’s got a few surprises saved up. Puma plans on training at 130%, so he can go 100% in the title match and have an extra bit in reserve if he needs it. Puma promises this match will be worth the ticket price alone.

In a separate interview with MedioTiempo, Puma again repeats the story about how he’s been a fan of Rey Cometa since he was a kid. That always seems suspicious, because Cometa has not been around that long, but Puma is also not that old. In this one, Puma says he even had a Rey Cometa mask. Puma says he started to train under Satanico without letting his father know. Puma says he’s not scared of losing, because some times the loser does better than the winner going forward, and anyway Puma is always a winner.

Atlantis did an interview, and mentioned how proud he was to be on every Anniversary show since he debuted in 1983. It is a good story, but maybe Atlantis’ memory must not be as good as it used to be. He was not last year’s show, and did not have a match on the 2005 and 1987 shows. Atlantis wasn’t on what I have as the 2002 Anniversary show (09/13), but on the 09/27 card CMLL has called the anniversary show. Same deal in 1995, where there are two different cards that could be the Anniversary show and he was only one one of them. He’s not on the 1991 lineup we have, but we could be missing an opener from that show. And, of course, no one was on the 1985 Anniversary show because the earthquake canceled it. Getting back to the point, Atlantis thinks himself versus Ultimo Guerrero should main event the 80th (next year’s) Anniversary show.

Julio Cesar Rivera & Miguel Linares were at Arena Puebla this Monday, so maybe they’ll be doing commentary live? It’s something they could do much easier in Puebla then Guadalajara, which would explain why they’d bother switching tapes. (That and more DF guys.)

  2. @Adam: Diamante Azul (or Kukluxklan) is the Distrito Federal (Mexico City) Heavyweight Champion, but Diamante is the Occidente (Guadalajara) Heavyweight Champion. I know it may sound confusing but – no, it’s totally confusing.

  3. Great show on Figure Four with Cubs and Dr. Lucha.

    I’d like to see a double turn in the Terrible vs. Roosh match.

    Terrible can get over as a crazed wild-eyed type like Macho Man Savage(as an example). Roosh is a natural heel.
