IWRG (SUN) 02/05/2017 Arena Naucalpan [+LuchaTV, Estrellas del Ring, The Gladiatores]
1) Araña de Plata b Aramis
Arana de Plata declared himself #1 contender to Relampago for the middleweight title
2) Black Dragón & Dragón Fly b Hip Hop Man & Pibe Alfajor
3) Eterno DRAW Demonio Infernal
both guys submitted each other at the same time
4) Mosca (Argentina) b Cerebro Negro © [IWRG IC WELTER]
Mosca won the title. Arana de Plata was Cerbero’s second, but purposefully hit him with a chair to set up Mosca’s win. Arana de Plata unmasked to reveal it was actually Hip Hop Man under the mask. Cerebro Negro loses the title on this second defense.
5) Danny Casas, Dr. Cerebro, Villano IV b Herodes Jr., Negro Navarro, X-Fly
Villano IV submited Negro Navarro. Danny Casas replaced Heddi Karoaui.
6) Máscara Año 2000 Jr. © DQ Trauma I [IWRG Rey del Ring]
Second defense. (Estrellas del Ring has Mascara 2000 Jr. winning the IWRG Juniors title instead?) Negro Navarro got caught hitting Mascara to cause his son to win.
7) Mr. Electro & Pirata Morgan b Golden Magic & Pirata Morgan Jr. [relevos suicidas]
Mr. Electro beat Golden Magic, then Pirata Morgan defeated his son. Pirata Jr. & Golden Magic will have an apuesta match on 02/12. The Piratas beat up Golden Magic after the match, with Herodes Jr., Mascara 2000 Jr. and Mr. Electro trying to make the save. Villano IV and Negro Navarro attacked them. Pirata said Villano IV and Navarro were now together as Los Consagrados.
Negro Navarro, Villano IV and Pirata Morgan against Herodes Jr., Mascara 2000 Jr. and Mr. Electro is not a feud for me. On the other hand, everyone’s going to show up to yell at Golden Magic again next week and that’ll be fun. Pretty strong evil plan for Hip Hop Man.
Today’s Arena Puebla show has a promising tercera. Puma, Tiger and Okumura take on Drone, Soberano and Esfinge. The Casas kids are usually good, Drone & Soberano are usually good, and the other guys can usually be pulled along in good matches.
The rest of the show, I’m not sure about. the main event is Rush, Volador and Pierroth against Diamante Azul, Euforia and Valiente. The Diamante Azul & Pierroth feud was dreadful on Friday. They’ve got better people around them but it’s also a Monday ngith in Puebla. Maximo, Stuka and Titan versus Negro Casas, Felino and Cavernario could be a good match, but it’s probably more likely an easy crowd friendly match. The women are in the segunda, with Vaquerita, Jarochita and Marcela against Dalys, Zeuxis and Seductora. The six random people picked for the opener are Arkalis, Hijo de Centella Roja (first match without his father), Meyer versus Malayo, Fuerza Chicana, and Perverso. Chicana’s been around forever, but the others are young guys who might be motivated to do something.
CultIcon has a preview of the show. The show airs on CMLL’s YouTube at 9pm.
AMW says their show of random indie matches will now be on Green TV, Saturdays on 9pm. The channel does stream free on the internet (and AMW started to put up their episodes.) It’s unclear when that starts; they’re not on the website’s schedule right now. The promotion was airing on EfektoTV until the end of the year, but had been in reruns for months. There was an AMW show this weekend, so they might have new content whenever they turn up.
La Rebelion are going to Monterrey on 02/20 for a a fan meeting.
Psycho Clown & Pagano are coming to New York on 03/25 (which is a different show from Psycho Clown coming on 02/18.)
