Here’s this weekend’s problem: This is going up on Friday because I couldn’t figure out when or when or how long the main shows are. Televisa (and another site I use to double check their listings) say they’re both one hours shows at 3 pm. AAA helpfully posted a preview again, but lists the start time as 2:30 pm. Here in the states, Galavision’s website says CMLL is a two hour show at 10, while my TiVo says it’s a one hour show at 6.

On screen listings seem to have the best accuracy, so I’m going with those. But I’d check to see if AAA was on a bit early.

I’ve only gotten to the minis tournament from last week, so don’t listen to me about anything. Totally swamped otherwise, and just found out I missed about 1600 video links on YouTube because I had one too many “s”‘s in retros80s90s. On the bright side, that means a ton more matches get video links.

I have plans of doing plenty of stuff (maybe another column, because the Hall of Fame comments have given me thoughts about my vote, and there’s something really obvious I’d like to write about) but we’ll see what happens.

Plan on a chat on 09/23.

————

52MX: Panther/Rush/Toscano vs Avernos + Black Warrior makes an appearance.

LATV: Second week of build towards Ruuuuuuuuuuuuush vs Mr. Aguila! Get excited! Gen11 vs Rayos Tapatios feud comes to Tuesday nights and BOMBS! Also, the returns to action of Toscano, Diamante and Lady Apache!

TF: if they follow in order, the swing match is the GDL Duo vs the Evil Kittens. That must air, got to put the announcer’s match on. Women’s match was semimain, Invasors vs Warrior (two matches in one weekend!), Fantamsa, Maximo is the main.

————-

CMLL: Another one hour show probably means Fantasma/Misterioso and TRT vs Garza/Sombra/Shocker (to set up a direction that seems already dropped, unless they are doing the cage match.)

AAA: last half of the Queretaro taping: Mixed trios, Maniacos vs Aero/Drago/Electro, and Perros vs Mesias/Lider/Zorro

FOX: Champions of Justice vs Guerreros continues here (and they clearly should be getting the title match next week, which is odd for a main event) + hat picked midcard match.

C3: Felino/Bucanero in the main event, and probably a five match show since they did stuff in the women’s tag. This is the show with the interesting relevos incredible match which apparently went well.

GDL: swing match is a women’s trios with a new girl, but the match you probably are looking for here is Virus vs Stuka for Virus’ title.

Puebla: Tanahashi’s return plays background to UG/Atlantis issues.

ACM: Antifaz/Hator/Heddi vs Anibal/Ninja/Purpura. There are some guys in that match I have strong feelings about.

PdM: the Perros/XPW main event aired this past Thursday (and is already on YouTube, links in the db), and they teased X-Treme/Peligro for next week. Possibly the minis match to pair with it.

IWRG: they’re been airing only the top 3 since the judging/time limit idea was abruptly dropped, expect the same again.
