CMLL (MON) 08/19/2013 Arena Puebla [El Popular, Porra Fresa]
1) Asturiano, Camaleón, Milenium b Artillero, Blue Center, Súper Comando
Tecnicos took 1/3. The finishing spot with Artillero & Asturiano went badly (recap says Artillero is at fault) and Asturiano suffered a dislocated left shoulder. Asturiano would later say he will be out six months.
2) Leono, Starman, Stigma b Cancerbero, Espíritu Maligno, Raziel
Stigma & Espiritu are still feuding, but the other guys finished the match.
3) Hijo del Fantasma, Stuka Jr., Titán b Kráneo, Morphosis, Psicosis
Invasors took 1/3.
4) Atlantis, Rush, Thunder b Mr. Niebla, Niebla Roja, Terrible
Tecnicos took 1/3.
5) Rey Escorpión b Último Guerrero [CMLL LH]
Escorpion is champion. Seconds were Niebla Roja and Terrible. UG submitted Escorpion in the first, Escorpion submitted UG in the second, and Escorpion used a cradle and the ropes to beat UG in the third. 3rd defense.
Porra Fresa thinks they might be setting up a Espiritu Maligno versus Stigma title match. Espiritu Maligno is Puebla middleweight champion, but it’s been years since the title has been defended. (I don’t even have any record of a defense in Arena Puebla.)
El Popular’s recap mentions the 09/16 show will start at 6pm (instead of the usual 9pm.) That day looks like it’s going to be the hardest day to pick where to go.
CMLL (TUE) 08/20/2013 Arena Mexico [Black Terry Jr. (Flickr), CMLL]
1) Bengala & Sensei b Akuma & Ramstein
Tecnicos took 2/3.
2) Dalis la Caribeña, Estrellita, Goya Kong b La Comandante, La Seductora, Tiffany
Tecnicas took 1/3. Goya splashed Tiffany for the win.
3) Delta, Hijo del Fantasma, Tritón b Boby Zavala, Sangre Azteca, Shigeo Okumura
Triton moonsaulted Okumura.
4) Tiger b Diamante [lightning]
CMLL recaps says TRT has confirmed Tiger is still in the group. Tiger actually won here.
5) La Sombra, Super Porky, Thunder DQ Mr. Niebla, Negro Casas, Rey Escorpión
Volador pulled Sombra’s mask for the DQ. Sombra and Volador demanded an extra fall but the commission said no (again.) They still fought some more.
6) Dragón Rojo Jr. b Niebla Roja
Dragon Bomb for the win.
Dragon Rojo looks, at least from the pictures, like he’s dropped some weight.
Goya pinning Tiffany and those two not on the card next week may mean that feud is done already. Their match last week was very not good.
Clarity on TRT! Until someone changes their mind.
CMLL (TUE) 08/20/2013 Arena Coliseo Guadalajara [@acogdl]
1) Esfinge & Metatrón b Demonio Maya & Évola
Tecnnicos took 1/3.
2) Magnus, Sky Kid, Soberano Jr. b Disturbio, Herodes Jr., Sádico
Tecnicos took 1/3, Sky Kid top rope plancha on Disturbio.
3) Amapola, Princesa Blanca, Princesa Sugheit b Lluvia, Luna Mágica, Marcela
Rudas took 2/3, Amapola defeating Marcela. This sets up a title match next week.
4) Ángel de Oro, Blue Panther, Titán DQ Ephesto, Mephisto, Pólvora
Tecnicos took 1/3, Polvora fouling Angel de Oro.
5) Máscara Dorada, Mistico, Valiente b Euforia, Gran Guerrero, Último Guerrero
Tecnicos took 1/3, Mistica on Gran Guerrero for the win.
Marcela versus Amapola probably will be a good match. Going out on a limb.
AAA has put up this week’s UTDN show early. It inculdes the opener, which didn’t air on the GalaTV show, and is apparently really good.
ChilangaMask says Shu el Guerrero is off their card, and Negro Navarro will face Rey Escorpion instead this Sunday. The promoter also says he’s talked to Valiente and he is on the show Sunday.
Mr. Reyes has photos from a weekend full of shows and more. “America VIP” appears to be another Wrestle-1 trainee using Pantera’s old America gimmick.
Perro Aguayo Jr. is relaunching his store, now with AAA merchandise along with Perro del Mal gear, and discounts this weekend. He says he does not know the reason Halloween left the group. Perro declares the only real celebration of 80 years of lucha libre was the Cibernetico vs Perro Aguayo Jr. hair match.

Lineups
CMLL (MON) 08/26/2013 Arena Puebla
1) Black Tiger & Robin vs El Malayo & Guerrero Negro Jr.
2) Hombre Bala Jr., Metálico, Tigre Rojo Jr. vs Akrón, Hijo del Signo, King Jaguar
3) Fuego, Sagrado, Tritón vs Namajague, Puma, Sangre Azteca
4) Diamante Azul, La Máscara, Super Porky vs Kráneo, Mr. Águila, Psicosis
5) Atlantis, La Sombra, Mr. Niebla vs Rush, Terrible, Volador Jr. [Relevos Increíbles]
King Jaguar’s first appearance since May. I don’t like the chances of Volador Jr.’s team keeping it together (though there really should be some Sombra/Volador vs Ultimo/Atlantis tension at this point.)
CMLL (TUE) 08/27/2013 Arena Mexico
1) Oro Jr. & Robin vs Herodes Jr. & Inquisidor
2) Soberano Jr., Stigma, Súper Halcón Jr. vs Artillero, Nitro, Súper Comando
3) Pegasso, Starman, Tritón vs Cancerbero, Raziel, Taichi
4) Rey Cometa vs Shigeo Okumura [lightning]
5) Delta, Guerrero Maya Jr., Super Porky vs Hiroshi Tanahashi, Namajague, Rey Escorpión
6) Atlantis, La Máscara, Thunder vs Euforia, Gran Guerrero, Último Guerrero
That semimain is interesting. Namajague seems to be Tanahashi’s designated partner, not Taichi or Okumura. Makes for much better matches. Also, looks like the first step in Guerrero Maya Jr. winning the G1 next year.
Cadetes del Espacio team up for the third time still looking for their first win. They’re not the favorites in that one.
CMLL (TUE) 08/27/2013 Arena Coliseo Guadalajara
1) Black Metal & Leo vs Espectrum & Maléfico
2) Diamante, Fuego, Magnus vs Arkángel de la Muerte, Hooligan, Skándalo
3) Marcela vs Amapola [CMLL WOMEN]
Marcela is champion. Seventh defense.
4) Ángel de Oro, Blue Panther, Titán vs Dragón Rojo Jr., Misterioso Jr., Pólvora
5) Marco Corleone, Máximo, Rush vs Negro Casas, Terrible, Volador Jr.
First time Bufete del Amor has teamed up since Marco’s injury.
