This week’s monkey wrench is the aquatics world championship. No, really. In Mexico, Galavision has coverage of the event, likely focusing on their past medal winning divers (the things I learn about doing this) on Saturday and Sunday afternoon. Lucha gets cut, as it often does. Both Saturday CMLL show and AAA’s return to Sunday are cut down a single hour. For AAA, this is extra problematic; they actually added a show to the taping which should air, so they’ve got about 180 minutes of footage to squeeze into a single hour, and it’s all got to set the card for Verano de Escandalo next week. CMLL is much more simple – they ran one fewer matches last week, so the only match that gets cut (the opener) is the same one that always gets cut. CMLL either got alerted to the time change ahead of time or ends up quite lucky.
52MX: It will be the Arkangel show, so hopefully they choose the two matches most related to Arkangel, the cibernetico and his trios match.
LATV: should be onto a kind of bleh taping, good guys mixed with not so good in random matches. Dr. X vs Fuego continues.
Teleformula: the same rerun again
——————
CMLL-Gala: Double title matches. Both the Generacion Dorada vs Hijos de Averno and Polvora vs Valiente feuds have been going on here, so should the title matches.
AAA: six matches in one hour isn’t going to work; they have to be considering (or planning) to split this up into a double taping and just eliminate one taping down the road. (That would also explain adding the extra match.) The main event and the Psycho Circus/Perros stuff is most important for Verano, so figure on it.
FOX: Estrellita as a tecnica, and Atlantis vs Negro Casas. Hey, maybe they can do Negro Casas/Mr. Niebla vs Atlantis/Blue Panther for anniversary?
C3: Fuego vs Dr. X, this time in singles.
Mega6: Demus 316 vs Electrico
Puebla: Yoshihashi vs Rush
Monterrey: Konnan Big. Always, Konnan Big.
Perros: I dunno, but I do know the cage match with the Perros, Psychos, and Payasos aired tonight.
IWRG: Oficial 911 vs Multifacetico.
