If you have a huge chunk of time and/or are willing to do some skipping, the Copa Jr. match is worth watching. If you’ve never seen a UG/Atlantis match, the main event was too.
AAA’s show in Naucalpan drew well. No full results yet. Pro Wrestling Revolution has a show on FloSlam tonight, with Octagon, Atlantis and Juventud Guerrera.
Not much of note this weekend. CMLL has the Dragon Lee/Cavernario title match (which should be taped but probably won’t.) IWRG has their Guerra de Golfo series of cage matches.
Promociones Junior says the next AAA TV taping they’re promoting is 09/02 (Saturday) in Irapuato. That seems to replace 08/30 SLP taping on the schedule (and they promote both cities, so that makes sense.)
RobViper has a music video of ELITE 08/11/2015.
Hijo del Santo did an interview to hype his son’s match on Sunday on Sunday.
Rey Mysterio is headed back to Chile on 05/21.
DJZ’s video update says he’s hoping to be back in the ring in June.
Lineup
CMLL (FRI) 04/21/2017 Arena México
1) Flyer & Robin vs Canelo Casas & Espanto Jr.
2) Drone, Fuego, Rey Cometa vs Nitro, Raziel, Virus
3) Guerrero Maya Jr. vs Luciferno [lightning]
4) Blue Panther Jr. vs Esfinge, Magnus, Stigma, Star Jr., Sansón, Forastero, Artillero [Copa Junior Nuevos Valores, semifinal]
5) Diamante Azul, Stuka Jr., Valiente vs Euforia, Gran Guerrero, Niebla Roja
6) Carístico, Dragón Lee, Volador Jr. vs Cavernario, La Máscara, Negro Casas
Volador replaces Mistico in the top team, so either they have a big showcase match or maybe that fight in the Reyes del Aire goes somewhere.
The poster has Mr. Niebla in the semimain, the text as Niebla Roja in the match. Niebla Roja makes more sense given the angle but we may not find out.
I have no idea why this Copa Junior is in the fourth and the other one was in the second. (And I wonder if Blue Panther Jr. actually was hurt and they swapped the Panthers around, because Blue Jr. would’ve made more sense as the surprise early elimination last night.) Artillero, a 12 year veteran of CMLL under that name, being in a nuevo valores tournament is something special. Five tecnicos means they may actually have to do a battle royal next week. Magnus gets his one match this year to do something. Sanson makes the most sense as a Soberano partner but CMLL may not be predicatable.
LyP (SAT) 06/10/2017 Arena Lopez Mateos
1) Imposible vs Ciclón Black, Emperador Azteca
2) Flamita vs Sádico
3) AR Fox vs Aero Boy
4) Rey Horuz vs Jack Evans
5) Jeff Cobb & The King vs Juventud Guerrera & Súper Crazy
Full card for the Lucha y Pasion show, who’s site is mostly based around pirating shows (like WWE PPVs.) I don’t know how the math works on any of this, but I’m hoping someone pirates this show, should be good.
