CMLL (FRI) 11/17 Arena Mexico Lineup
1) Bam Bam, Fantasy, Shockercito vs Mini Damian 666, Mini Halloween, Mr. Aguilita
2) Fabian el Gitano, Leono, Texano Jr. vs Arkangel, Loco Max, Sangre Azteca
3) Blue Panther, La Mascara, Volador Jr. vs Olimpico, Tarzan Boy, Ultimo Guerrero
4) Dos Caras Jr., Rey Bucanero, Shocker vs Kenzo Suzuki, LA Park, Marco Corelone
5) Mistico, Negro Casas vs Averno, Mephisto [CMLL TAG]
They’re going to premire the Quinto Estacion with Mistico (and Heavy Metal!) at Arena Mexico, before the main event, and the group will be there root Mistico on. Univision has a brief article about the teamup. Given the cross over they’re pushing and the Assassins being dominant leading in, I can’t imagine Mistico going down to defeat; I’m flipping my picks and expecting both titles to be retained this weekend. I still think Averno & Mephisto are the next tag team champions, but it may be a while before we get there.
With the potential added audience, I’d think they setup either something for Monday’s show or something to build to a hair match out of that semimain.
LA Park, who turned 41 this past week, told a paper he expects to feel a little nervous, returning to Arena Mexico for the first time in 3 months.
Main event should be really good, because it was on the title switch. There’s a lot of hope for some of the undercard stuff, so this is a promising show. After I post this, I’m gone for the evening, but there may be an early AM post if I stumble onto finding the results and have something to say. I may throw a party if The Assassins win.

As expected, Mistico and Negro retain to celebrate Mistico’s music video. I wonder what they do with Mistico for the rest of the year. I kinda want them to end with a bang and bring in Santo to create that magical run in August…
