Dandy versus Satanico, added AAA match, Inquisidor, Arena Kalaka, Masked Mania

No IWRG show tonight; the show they announced earlier this week was for Sunday.

ChilangaMask held a press conference to hype their 04/27 El Dandy versus Satanico show. Dandy, who will be retiring at the end of his series with Satanico, says he wanted to stop wrestling while he was still good. Satanico wished there were many more “El Dandy”s. Dandy leads their series three matches to two, and they will have two more matches after this Arena Lopez Mateos match. They’ll fight on May 17th in Arena San Juan and May 18th in Reynosa, Tamalipas in a hair match.

Ludxor says he and Venum versus Eterno & Carta Brava Jr. has been added to Saturday’s AAA TV. It might be the local dark match, where AAA uses their own guys as locals. It also might turn out to be the best match on the card, and it’s not a bad card.

Record has a story on Inquisidor selling fruit to make ends meet. The article starts off with a quote from Inquidor about how there’s not much lucha libre work and it’s not paying well. Inquisidor mentions he’s been helping out with the fruit business since he was young and his father was in it. Today, it’s more about moving heavy boxes for his two uncles. He’s working three days a week (Friday to Sunday), from 5 to 11 before going to work at his lucha libre job. Inquisidor only gets two CMLL main arena matches a month, usually openers. That’s only going to work out for him if there’s a lot of full roster spot shows to work on, and there aren’t those for CMLL right now. He’s also a guy in danger of being pushed out completely as CMLL continues to add wave after wave of new luchadors.

Arena Kalaka of Ciudad Juarez will be closed for the next four months after an incident where a luchador attacked a fan. The local lucha commission is enforcing the suspension, and it reads like the luchador (who’s name I haven’t seen) is also suspended.

LuchaWorld has KrisZ’s news update.

Somehow, I never posted the MaskedMania show to the database? It’s 10 days away, it’s $10 on iPPV. I’m probably watching live (though also probably watching CMLL at the same time if they do anything for that Arena Mexico Anniversary show.) Kevin Kleinrock has an interview about the show here.
