CMLL (FRI) 05/26/2017 Arena México [CMLL]
1) Cancerbero & Raziel b Flyer & Oro Jr. 
2) Misterioso Jr., Sagrado, Virus b Fuego, Star Jr., Stigma
3) Puma, Sam Adonis, Tiger b Blue Panther Jr., Rey Cometa, The Panther
4) Stuka Jr. b Pólvora [lightning]
Stuka won in 8:54 with the torpedo splash
5) Ángel de Oro, Mistico, Niebla Roja b Euforia, Gran Guerrero, Último Guerrero
Niebla Roja’s return to the tecnico side. UG pulled off his mask for the DQ, then took a second mask later. He already had the Niebla Roja mask from last week and continued to demand Niebla Roja change his look.
6) Bárbaro Cavernario, Pierroth, Rush b Carístico, Marco Corleone, Valiente
Cavernario replaced Mr. Niebla on Monday. Rush Driver on Caristico for the win.
I didn’t see most of the show, but it sounded like it was just OK.
Polvora told the press that CMLL has rules and Bobby Villa broke them, but didn’t get much more specific than that. Rush talked about Los Ingobernables expanding to the indies; it didn’t sound like he was planning on leaving.
Niebla Roja says he’s not changing his mask. That seems like a poor decision.
CMLL has added a basic Q&A section to their page.
Chris DeJoseph was interviews on the Last Real Heels podcast, answering questions about Lucha Underground. He seemed completely confident about a Season 4 for the series and thought it would happen this fall. He said he was “helping out” in AAA, and being closer involved in that promotion has given him more ideas about people he’d like to bring to Lucha Underground. (Which would seem to make even more people off limits to Impact; I don’t understand how that thing is going to work.) DeJoseph even brought up the possibility of Nightclaw returning, though it sounded as if it might be a different person as Nightclaw. He did not answer answer the running joke of El Bunny’s identity; I know it’ll be end times when someone finally reveals that secret.
La Mascara & Rey Escorpion face Penta & Daga on 06/15 in Arena Lopez Mateos.
A Brazo de Oro tribute show is being planned for September.
The FULL show scheduled for Friday in Queretaro was canceled. They end the tour today in San Luis Potosi.

2) Drone, Fuego, Guerrero Maya Jr. vs Disturbio, Misterioso Jr., Virus
3) Hechicero, Pierroth, Rush vs Negro Casas, Rey Bucanero, Vangellys
4) Atlantis & Esfinge vs Sansón & Último Guerrero and Mistico & Star Jr. and Forastero & Shocker and Blue Panther & Pegasso and Cuatrero & Máscara Año 2000 and Stigma & Titán and Espanto Jr. & Kráneo [Gran Alternativa, semifinal]
5) ? & ?? vs ??? & ???? [Gran Alternativa, 8f]
6) ? & ?? vs ??? & ???? [Gran Alternativa, 8f]
7) ? & ?? vs ??? & ???? [Gran Alternativa, 8f]
8) ? & ?? vs ??? & ???? [Gran Alternativa, 8f]
9) ? & ?? vs ??? & ???? [Gran Alternativa, quarterfinal]
10) ? & ?? vs ??? & ???? [Gran Alternativa, quarterfinal]
11) ? & ?? vs ??? & ???? [Gran Alternativa, semifinal]
The Gran Alternativa returns not that long after the similar Copa Jr. ended. I think Pegasso is the only guy here who couldn’t have been in the Copa Jr. (and is just to make up the numbers.) This is Shocker return attempt #2, hope it goes better. Tournament shows are not usually good so the next weeks are going to be iffy.
