Almost forgot about this
GALLI (FRI) 07/11 the Odeum, Villa Park, IL
3) Darin Corbin & Ryan Cruz vs Arik Cannon & Tony Scarpone
4) Meteoro II vs Chilango [hair, mask]
5) Centella de Oro, Joey Marx, Nemesis (GALLI) vs Guerrillero, Pentagon del Infierno, Tokio Lee
6) Samuary vs Negrotistico, Gringo Loco, Amenaza del Siglo [TLC, GALLI]
Since I’ve last checked in with this group…
– Charly Manson Jr. apparently left, vacating the title. Haven’t seen his name on another lucha indy, and no idea what the deal is
– the tag title tournament they were pushing heavily last time in this building is apparently on hiatus
– No idea where the mask vs hair match came from, but okay
Main event was not actually called a TLC match, but that’s what it is. Amenaza del Siglo is taking Charly Manson Jr.’s spot, and doesn’t seem to fit the match, he’s a veteran rudo (with comedy) guy. I also wonder if this means Negrotistico has switched sides yet again and is back to being a tecnico to balance out the match.
Haven’t seen Tokio Lee previously, but I’d assume he’s one of the novatos getting a gimmick. Two young guys in a big singles match looks like it might be trouble on paper, but I’m guessing they’ve been working thru it for the last couple weeks and you just hope they don’t get derailed. The Northstar Express is good, right? I have no idea and haven’t seen Arik Cannon in many a year.
Tickets are $10 for Kids GA, $15 for Adults GA, $20 for ringside. Doors open at 6:30, show starts at 7:30. Say hi if you see me hanging out there.

I know I’m late on this post, but Tony Scarpone is the weak link in that match no doubt, especially if he’s working face, guys a natural heel. Hopefully it was a decent show, I await your comments.
