This past weekend’s Toryumon Mexico setup an Ultimo Dragon vs Tiger Ali match for their May show.
Just like two weeks ago, this Wednesday is another big AAA day. Only one show is airing tonight, but two are taking place
Lucha Underground has three matches
- Angelico vs Johnny Mundo (clip)
- Aerostar [2] vs Drago [1], match 4 in the best of five
- the start of the Lucha Underground Trios Championship tournament.
There’s also early video of a Mundo & Alberto segment which will air, and of Big Ryck introducing some new friends to Dario Cueto. There was also a bonus post show interview with Son of Havoc on his new status quo.
Dario makes an announcement that sets up match three, and a whole bunch of matches for the next month. The last few shows were knocking down the pins, the next couple is about setting those pins back up (while having good matches.)
This is the first episode I saw live and, given this show’s tendency to break normal patterns, I went into the Aerostar/Drago match thinking there was a chance it could actually end without going all five matches.
Meanwhile, in San Luis Potosi, AAA holds it’s first TV taping since the death of Perro Aguayo Junior. The show is being billed as Hijo del Perro Aguayo tribute, with fans encouraged to bring and wear their Perros del Mal shirts. Rey Misterio Jr. is unofficially officially scheduled to appear to be part of a tribute, and the tribute is the important thing. They’ll be having matches because that’s what they do and that’s what they’ll eventually need on TV, but this is more a celebration of Perro Aguayo Jr.
Yesterday’s AAA podcast cleared up the changes in the card (and there’s an updated poster to match it):
- main event is now Alberto el Patron vs Cage, in a make up for Rey de Reyes
- semimain is Blue Demon Jr. & Myzteziz vs El Mesias & Hijo del Fantasma
- Fenix drops down to the tercera to replace Super Nova
Mesias replaces Perro Aguayo Jr. on the Xalapa show this Friday.
Perros del Mal rep Kahn (who is Perro Aguayo Jr.’s cousin) says the Perros del Mal concept will continue on to keep Perro’s legacy strong.
Cruz de Silencio, a deaf luchador from Morelia who’s appeared on DTU shows, says he’s been invited to wrestle in Japan as a show featuring wrestlers with disabilities, and and is looking to raise money for air fare.
All Elite announced Negro Casas & Octagon vs Blue Panther & Fuerza Guerrera for their 04/19 show in Arena Coliseo Guadalajara.
Syuri talks about coming to Mexico again, suggests facing Marcela. The always entertaining thing about the Japanese women coming to CMLL is there are suddenly very detailed reports of inconsequential Puebla matches available in kanji.
LuchaWorld has a recap of this week’s +LuchaTV and today’s KrisZ news update.
LuchaTV has highlights of Black Fire & Slayer Pack vs Los Malkariados, Drastick Boy vs Hormiga vs Lokillo vs Lanzelot vs Articuz vs Rocky Lobo, Los Nerds vs Super Boy (not that one), El Flaco and Guerrero Infernal, Crazy Boy vs Super Mega, Los Porros vs Los Masizos vs Ursus & Dance Boy, Los Tortugas Ninjas vs a Neza Boys/exoticos team, Impulso vs Danger, and Skyman vs Rayo Star. There’s also interviews with Crazy Boy (challenging for a title, noting he never gets a title shot), Impulso and Danger talking about a hair match and CaraLucha honoring Hijo del Perro Aguayo.
Segunda Caida reviews 09/21/14 CMLL and Guerreros in Japan

Recent Mascara Dorada action in trios and atomicos. His title match is coming up this weekend.
SuperLuchas writes about a magazine article talking about the problems of luchadors. Ray Mendoza Jr. says he’s still not been paid what was promised to him for his mask loss; he’s brought this up before.

Lineups
CMLL (TUE) 04/07/2015 Arena México
1) Stukita & Último Dragoncito vs Pequeño Nitro & Pequeño Violencia
2) Flyer, Magnus, Robin vs Artillero, Disturbio, Súper Comando

5) Blue Panther, Titán, Valiente vs Ephesto, Hechicero, Luciferno
6) Dragon Lee, Dragón Rojo Jr., La Máscara vs Euforia, Kamaitachi, Negro Casas
Will Dragon Rojo be back this week? Maybe, it’s in the window. Nice to see Dragon Lee & Kamaitachi rewarded in with a main event.
Panther vs Virus is an exciting match. Hopefully a title match if Virus is still champion at this part.
All the matches on this show have a chance of being good.
CMLL (TUE) 04/07/2015 Arena Coliseo Guadalajara
1) Brazo De Oro Jr., Leono, Magnum vs Espanto Jr., Furia Roja, Jocker
2) Dark Angel, Goya Kong, Syuri vs Amapola, Dalys, La Comandante
3) Brazo de Oro, Delta, Guerrero Maya Jr. vs Misterioso Jr., Pierroth, Sagrado
4) Mistico vs Mephisto
5) Atlantis, Máximo, Super Porky vs Bárbaro Cavernario, Felino, Mr. Niebla
Brazo de Oro returns to the ring yet again to face off against Pierroth and introduce a new son, both of which are frightening prospects. (On the other hand, if you’re hoping CMLL is going to ran a tournament featuring new luchadors, one’s finally debuting.) This Brazo de Oro Jr. has been working on the (likely Brazo run) CMLL Arena Aficion shows.
