CMLL (FRI) 03/11/2016 Arena México [CMLL, Kronosport, thecubsfan]
1) Astral & Stukita b Mercurio & Pequeño Nitro
16:32. Tecnicos took 2/3. Astral & Stukita replaced Shockercito & Ultimo Dragoncito on Monday.
2) Blue Panther Jr., Fuego, The Panther b Cancerbero, Raziel, Virus
14:42. Tecnicos took 2/3.
3) Blue Panther, Stuka Jr., Súper Porky b Rey Bucanero, Terrible, Vangellys
11:49. Tecnicos took 2/3.
4) Dalys b Marcela © [CMLL WOMEN]
12:39. Dalys took 1/3, the last with a casita, to win the championship. She’s the 18th champion. Marcela falls in her 3rd defense, first since September
5) Cavernario, Kamaitachi, Negro Casas b Máscara Dorada, Súper Parka, Volador Jr.
5:40. Straight falls. Volador had Casas beat in the second fall, but Tiger and Puma interfered to help Casas foul Volador and win. The rudos beat up the tecnicos post match.
6) Marco Corleone, Máximo Sexy, Último Guerrero b La Máscara, Rey Escorpión, Rush [Relevos Increíbles]
8:20. Tecnicos took 2/3, Maximo kissing Rush in the third fall.
There weren’t any stand out matches but it worked as a build up to next week’s big matches. They set up two plot points – Volador being overwhelmed by the Casas family and Maximo’s kiss being deadly – which seem like they’ll play into next week’s title match.
Dalys winning her first title the week before Negro Casas has a hair match is interesting timing.
The broadcast barely mentioned the iPPV, if they did at all. There is a promo for it on their YouTube channel.
Seemed like an average or below average turnout.
Tonight’s Arena Coliseo show has Ultimo Guerrero defending his title against Atlantis. This another thing CMLL’s barely promoted! Atlantis has his own title so it’s unlikely he’s going to win this one. It’s the first of three straight show in Arena Coliseo – there’s no matches in Arena Mexico until Friday due to work being done.
There’s also a Cara Lucha show tonight, with Ciclope vs Joe Lider vs Danger vs Wotan in the main event, and Daga vs Rayo Star in the semimain.
Tonight’s also RIOT’s third show, with Caifan vs Dralion vs Arez on top.
The Guadalajara Homenaje a Dos Leyendas will now take place on 04/05, according to Super Libre

Monterrey’s Arena Jaguar has a YouTube channel now. The Pedro Navajas injury mentioned a few days ago is up there and looks ugly.
