6) Black Metal L Gallo, Cavernario, Rey Cometa, Boby Zavala, Sádico, Esfinge, Demonio Maya [cage, hair, mask]
Black Metal lost his mask to Cavernario. No name announced.
Big weekend for Cavernario. He won En Busca de un Idolo, and then won a mask. It was Metal who came with Cavernario for their Mexico City debuts, a year ago Monday. Cavernario looked good, Metal struggled, and their careers have gone in different directions since before crossing paths one more time here. I’m surprised Black Metal lost his mask when he was still trying to get into the main roster; maybe he’s getting a new character? Maybe plans changed.

I’d assume we get a Black Metal name later.

5) Kamaitachi, Puma, Shigeo Okumura b Delta, Guerrero Maya Jr., Stuka Jr.
Rudos took 1/3, Kamaitachi beating Delta after an Okumura distraction.
6) Dragón Rojo Jr., Pólvora, Rey Escorpión b Máximo, Super Porky, Volador Jr.
Rojo snuck in a foul on Volador.
Terra feed never worked during the show. There was an explanation of technical problems. I asked if they would reair the show at some later date – they said they’d ask. It would’ve been a really frustrating evening if it was a more interesting card and if I wasn’t already watching World Cup anyway.
Semimain seems like a sure set up to a Arena Coliseo Tag Team Championship match. Okumura seems like the only one interested in challenging for those. Main event might go somewhere too, but seems less likely.
Solar, Huracan Ramriez, Fantasma defeated Blue Panther, Pirata Morgan and Negro Navarro in Tijuana.
LuchaWorld has KrisZ’s news update and a review of the En Busca de un Idolo tournament final.
Rob has highlights of 03/29/14 AAA and 08/31/01 CMLL, which is the first lucha show I ever recapped.
Super Libre had Mephisto & Titan as guests.
Vice writes about lucha libre and Masked Republic’s show back in April. Both Casandro and someone named Dr. Lucha get quoted.
Lucha Libre in Japan
06/22 NOAH: Kenou [O] & Hajime Ohara b Rocky Lobo & Jinzo [X] – debut match, not part of the tournament (but they probably would win if they were meant to be a threat.) I hope Lobo & Jinzo get something out of the experience. I wouldn’t have a lot of hope for them to get a lot in the win column.
NJPW used a CMLL-style (Alexis Salazar created) cartela as an alternate program to their PPV this weekend.

Unrelated to today’s blog entry, I saw Latin Lover on Univision last night. Good thing I did not change the channel after US vs. Portugal game. So whatever that show is at 8p with people dancing, he’s on it. He still looks good(OMG I’m turning into Daniel).
C’mon Lucas – we need an XMW report! Was the AAA vs XMW atomicos match as good as 3ra Caida says?
it was a good match with the guys from XMW basically without any chance, it was like fenix vs everybody chopping Impulso chest bloody,impulso jumping with his trademark move on toscanos head and fly warrior with an very good performance vs fenix— sets up impulso fly warrior vs fenix daga at a later show.
First match which Doller won was a fight for your XMW with local luchadores from arena fusion which Blacky won (but he won this spot already on the last show which was never reviewed here)does anyone wants these results ?
arez vs pentagon well arez without any chance humiliated from pentagon gets his gear completely torn apart,pentagon working with a knife, glass, lightubes,chairs .Impulso ran in to help Arez get bloodied as well,mamba ran in so this sets up pentagon mamba vs arez impulso.
woman’s hardcore fight wasn’t really my thing , but magnifica said she will drop the “la” and just go by magnifica and will team up vs someone with ludark from now on.
tag team match had toxin boy and fly star vs fly metallik and wotan in focos both team with extrem violence get discualified from the match , but return later and set up mask vs mask toxin boy, fly stark vs wotan,metallik (later metaleon and wasson came into the ring and said they wanne be part of this match aswell) but i dont know if there were included, cause el Wasson doesnt have a mask.
All in all good show, not as good as the one in El deportivo oceania or the one in Rancho rosario but good with the XMW vs AAA match and the tag team match, but rain and in the end a flooded arena was a little downer…and because this one was sooo far away .
