Day: February 7, 2013

This week’s Tercera Caida has more info on Astro de Plata and lots of IWRG guests as they return to TVC Deportes this weekend.

On his Twitter account, Konnan’s been going back and forth with the Penas about going AAA to overturn their firing. Almost like there’s problems with this story. For his part, Dorian just promises more surprises. It’s possible Konnan and Dorian will be gone for zero (o) weeks depending on how they play out this story, but then it’d be even weirder to have broken up the rudo faction. I don’t know. We’ll find out on the 02/18 show. I did enjoy that the entire storyline goes totally unmentioned in Estrellas del Ring‘s recap of the show.

CMLL Gaceta has an interview with Stuka, saying he could challenge Namajague to a mask match after Friday’s match. This suggests Namajague is still wrestling in that match, but I wouldn’t be sure about that until it happens.

Next Tuesday’s card Arena Coliseo Monterrey card lists a tag team of Xtreme Boy & Black Spirit as “Dinastia Tapia”. The Tapia’s are LA Park, Super Parka and family, but Black Spirit was the name Hijo de LA Park started out using. New LA Park son? Something else?

R de Rudo has an interview with Xtreme Tiger about his independent track.

Arena Queretaro has an almost full CMLL show on 02/28. Pesta Negra vs Bufete del Amor seems to have replaced Mistico as the touring CMLL main event attraction.

AAA posted the first part of their interview with Fabi Apache & Cuervo. They’ll be doing a webcast Pentagon Jr. & Parka Negra tonight. It’ll be the first time Parka Negra has talked since debuting; they’ve been keeping him quiet to conceal his identity. My understanding is the current Canis Lupus in IWRG is the same deal – it’s someone who’s been in IWRG previously under another identity (and this guy‘s heard the same name I have)  – and that’s possibly why it sounded like he had something in his mouth when he was talking on Tercera Caida, he was purposefully trying to disguise his voice. I wonder if they’ll do something like that on the AAA webcast with Parka Negra.

AAA now has a Mascarita Dorada paper toy.

Lineups

CMLL (MON) 02/11/2013 Arena Puebla
1) Aereo, Astral, Pequeño Halcón vs Mercurio, Pequeño Olímpico, Pequeño Violencia
2) Camaleón, Höruz, Leono vs Espiritu Maligno, Fuerza Chicana, King Jaguar
3) Dark Angel, Goya Kong, Marcela vs Princesa Blanca, Princesa Sugheit, Zeuxis
4) Marco Corleone, Máximo, Thunder vs Euforia, Niebla Roja, Terrible
5) Rush vs Último Guerrero

Rush and UG had a match before; I remember as the point where I gave up on Ultimo Guerrero having an interesting singles match at any point in the future.

Minis working the opener instead of the locals is different, but it’s probably just knock off from having a singles main event and only five matches.

1) Bengala & Metatrón vs Akuma & Zayco
2) Acero, Bam Bam, Fantasy vs Pequeño Nitro, Pequeño Warrior, Pierrothito

4) Guerrero Maya Jr. vs Pólvora [lightning]
5) Marco Corleone, Máximo, Rush vs Rey Escorpión, Terrible, Tiger
6) Felino, Mr. Niebla, Negro Casas vs Blue Panther, Máscara Dorada, Shocker

Sombra/Niebla over, so back to nothing in particular. Main event has Panther vs the Casas.

Thunder continues to work Monday Puebla, Tuesday Guadalajara and no where else.

CMLL seems to putting keeping the main event trios groups – Peste Negra, Guerreros, Bufete del Amor in these lineups – all together in matches. Not sure if it’s a plan.

Post here. IWL hasn’t usually used CMLL guys, but they will be for this show. I wonder what we’ll get out of the main event.
