IWRG (SUN) 11/30/2014 Arena Naucalpan [Black Terry Jr. (Flickr), The Gladiatores]
1) Centvrión, Dragón Celestial, Metaleon b Diva Salvaje, Estrella Divina, Miss Gaviota
Centvrion returns (first match here since April) with a win.
2) Leo, Mike, Rafy, Teelo b Apolo Estrada Jr., Avisman, Danny Casas, Imposible
Another win for the Ninja Turtles.
3) Rayan, Trauma II, Universo 2000 Jr. b Dr. Cerebro, Emperador Azteca, Relámpago
4) Oficial 911 & Oficial AK47 © NC Canis Lupus & Eterno [IWRG IC TAG]
Scheduled to be a rematch for the titles, but Oficial AK47 did not show and match did not occur. Titles were declared vacant.
5) Danny Casas & Oficial 911 DQ Canis Lupus & Eterno
Replacement match. Bloody match with Canis and Eterno going after 911. Danny fouled 911 (circumstances unclear), the referee thought Eterno did it and gave the match to Casas & 911.
6) Chicano, Hijo de Máscara Año 2000, Veneno b Golden Magic, Súper Nova, Toscano
Veneno and Toscano feuded and bled. Straight falls for the rudos, Toscano beating Veneno.
Trying a different way of illustrating forfeited matches. That finish suggests they still plan to keep the Oficials/Eterno/Lupus feud going, but they probably just did the match they were planning on doing and any rethinking won’t come until later.
Veneno turning on Toscano and beating him in two falls suggests Arena Naucalpan is going to find out how many people will turn out for a Toscano hair match in 2014.
LyC (SUN) 11/30/2014 Arena Coliseo Monterrey [@MrIguana (1), @MrIguana (2), @MrIguana (3), @MrIguana (4), @MrIguana (5)]

4) Hijo de LA Park b El Pulpo, Angel Blanco Jr., Silver Star, Temblor, Tigre Universitario, Antifaz del Norte [UMLL CHAMP, #1 Contenders]
Hijo de LA Park beat Antifaz (not originally in the match) to win the title shot at some future day.
5) LA Park b Dr. Wagner Jr., El Hijo del Solitario
Parka beat Solitario with help from Wagner.
This was originally the Mil Mascaras show before plans changed. The Park/Wagner/Solitario match didn’t seem to draw well from the few pictures that have turned up.
Valiente challenges Mephisto for the Mexican Light Heavyweight Championship for the fourth time tonight in Puebla. It seems unlikely he’d finally get the win in Puebla but there’s no reason he can’t.
NJPW launched their njpwworld service earlier this morning for about $9USD. It’s solely NJPW stuff – my CMLL theory didn’t pan out – but there are some luchador matches in NJPW. (Two Solar matches from 1981 sound like good ideas.) The live airings mention the two FantasticaMania Korakuen Hall shows as airing live, and those are usually the big shows of the tournament. The NJPWWorld system has access to the TV Asahi broadcasts, which were only a few of the shows last year. I wonder if SamuraiTV will still be broadcasting the other shows, and if that means they’ll be available thru niconico.
Carta Brava (not-AAA version) took Mike Segura’s hair in a cage match on Sunday in Arena Lopez Mateos.
+LuchaTV has interviews from Super Fly and Aerostar. Also, Alberto del Rio talking briefly about CM Punk and Ricardo Rodriguez talking about coming to AAA and leaving WWE.
LuchaWorld writes about Sunday’s UIPW show with Negro Casas.
Segunda Caida reviewed Black Metal and Cavernario’s trip to Puebla.
SuperLuchas #537 has Brock Lesnar and Alberto del Rio covers.
An interview with Chamaco Valaguez; it reads like he’s working as a butcher and a taxi driver now.

6) Marco Corleone vs Terrible
Terrible hasn’t defended the title in a year, Terrible is about six months away from having the longest ever heavyweight reign, there’s no reason this isn’t a title match, this isn’t a title match. I dunno.
Estrellita is out for a while, still booked on to next week’s show. I dunno.
Sobreano, Star, Cholo and Ramstein are all back together in the segunda. This is a real thing.

I’ve always wondered, what happened with Toscano? He seemed a big deal around 2002-2003 main eventing the Aniversarios.
Did he not draw well, was he a problem personally? I know he went with the rest to Perros Del Mal, did that mean no going back to CMLL?
@jay: Everyone says it’s because Toscano personal problems; Konnan hinted that way in a podcast too.
Ah thank you, I remember the Konnan comments a while ago, maybe too much too soon. Thanks for the info as usual :)
