AAA-Televisa: Recap of TripleMania?

== CMLL ==

FOX: Titan vs Negro Casas.

52MX: Build for the hair match should air from GDL, while two generic trios from Sunday are scheduled to air.

C3: Casas Family vs Panther family, Rush/Stuka/Titan vs Bucanero/Terrible/Virus

TVC Deportes (Puebla): MOVED TO FRIDAY FOR SOME REASON. This should be the Stigma/Camorra show.

Lucha Azteca: Leyenda de Plata Block B

Terra Friday: There may be no way of knowing if Negro Casas & Volador Jr is airing until the moment the match happens. Estetas del Aire face the Invasors in the scheduled main event.

Terra Sunday: Peste Negra vs Atlantis, La Mascara, Super Porky.

== Other ==

IWRG-AYM Sports: Thursday’s show has already started airing; they managed to run late twice on Thursday, cutting off end of the cage match. That should mean Sunday’s taping airs the same day, but there’s no sure thing.

Noches de Coliseo: maybe Sunday’s show? This feels more like rerun time.

DTU: about to air when I’m typing this, but including an Aero Boy/Dement Extreme/Miedo Extremo/Ciclope four way and Mexican Powers vs Violento Jack/X-Fly vs Angel o Demonio/Ovett main event.

01/25 AAA TV Lineup (Guerrero Negro, BC) – Rey de Reyes Group 1

thecubsfan

AAA TV (SAT) 01/25/2014 Estadio de Beisbol, Guerrero Negro, Baja California
1) Faby Apache, Jennifer Blake, Lolita vs Mary Apache, Sexy Star, Taya Valkyrie
2) Monsther Clown, Murder Clown, Psycho Clown vs Hijo del Fantasma, Máscara Año 2000 Jr., Texano Jr.
3) El Mesías vs Fénix, Zorro, Silver King [Rey de Reyes, semifinal]
listed as Group 1
4) Cibernético, Jack Evans, La Parka vs Dark Cuervo, Dark Ozz, Dark Scoria

Air date: 02/08? This is a late surprise addition to the calendar so no telling if AAA builds up a big gap between taping date and air date or if one of these tapings scheduled to air over 2 weeks will be cut to 1. This is definitely a 1 week taping, but all 4 matches figure to air on UTDN.

The biggest business in Guerrero Negro is Exportadora de Sal, a salt exporter. They’re also front and center on the poster; this is a show happening in an unusual location because of the sponsor, like the last couple of 2013 tapings. It’s probably more like the Puerto Vallarta show where it’s more like a televised spot show than something where much progression should happen. (Consejo/Circus!)

This does seem like a deal that came thru late so they couldn’t announce it. I wasn’t too close on the type of deal.

The one definite storyline is the Rey de Reyes. Now that we’ve found group 1, here’s the field so far

El Mesías
Fénix
Zorro
Silver King

La Parka
Blue Demon Jr.
Parka Negra
Chessman

Cibernético
El Elegido
el Hijo del Perro Aguayo
Electroshock

All we know about the Rey de Reyes is it’s on these shows; I’d guess there’s a fourth block to take the field to 16 but not sure. My hunch is Zorro comes out of this group (Mesias being distracted to a loss by Texano), Demon in Group 2 (Parkas take each other, Chessman exists to lose), Electroshock in Group 3 (Perro/Cibernetico take each other out, Elegido exists to lose) and one more rudo in group 4. Plenty of time to change my mind.

Sin Cara first anniversary show, Star Jr., Espiritu Negro

thecubsfan

Mistico/Sin Cara/whatever says he’s promoting a lucha libre show for the first anniversary of his Sin Cara Gym. No date announced, but that should be a fun time. This is my favorite recent Sin Cara retweet.

Ultimo Dragoncito replaces Astral on Friday’s show.

New CMLL luchador Star Jr. was interviewed ComunicateDigital. As noted earlier, he’s Star Boy Jr. with a slightly different name and has been training with Virus and Franco Colombo in CMLL. He says he likes the work of a lot of luchadors, but Ricky Marvin’s style is the his favorite. That’s a good guy to emulate.

Arena Queretaro confirmed the Espiritu Negro in Puebla next week is Queretaro’s Espiritu Negro. He is Rey Cometa’s brother (Cometa is the first guy to congratulate him in the comments)

The CMLL TuriLuchas bus resumes it’s schedule this Friday. It had been off the last two weeks during the holidays (which actually makes some of those holiday crowd more surprising.)

DTU announced La Magnifica & Aero Boy vs Keira & Drastick Boy in a tables with light tubes match for their 02/01 Arena Lopez Mateos show.

CMLL has video promos from Barbaro Cavernario and Familia Panther.

Coliseo Coacalco has a main event of Magnifico, Iron Love, Negro Navarro vs Super Comando, Artillero and Principe Odin Jr. That last trio are all brothers.

LuchaWorld has KrisZ’s news update.
