AAA (SUN) 10/19 Salon Sagitario [SoloLuchas]
2) Killer Clown, Psycho Clown, Zombie Clown b Aerostar, el Ángel, Súper Fly
3) Cibernetico b Zorro, Kenzo Suzuki [AAA HEAVY]
Kenzo replaced Vampiro, who sure appears to be done here (as everyone figured after VdE.)
IWRG (SUN) 10/19 Arena Naucalpan [SoloLuchas]
1) Super Halcon Jr. b Diablo Jr.
2) Eragon & Jack b Furia Guerrera & King Drako
3) Gemelo Fantastico I b Dr. Cerebro
4) Freelance, Multifacético, Pendulo b Black Terry, Ciclon Negro, Terror Negro
5) Latino & Shocker DQ Head Hunter I & Veneno
Veneno fouled Shocker in the main event. Pendulo and Multifacetico fought over who got to pin Black Terry in the semimain; they both want a title shot. Cerebro Negro interfered in the tercera to help Dr. Cerebro, got caught in the first fall for a DQ, got caught in the second fall and was thrown out. While the ref was seeing to Cerebro Negro, Gemelo Fantastico II snuck in and piledrove Dr. Cerebro. That’ll work.
Today’s Ovaciones says CMLL plans to have Mistico & Perro Aguayo Jr. return on November 14. This is coming straight from Paco Alonso, so I don’t know how it connects with reality. This may have been the planned date, but Mistico’s recent re-injury was supposed to push him back a month or more. Alonso notes the wrestlers still have to be cleared (Alonso says they want to be back now, but he’s insisting until they’re 100% healthy. Well, it’s the thing to say anyway.)
CMLL (SUN) 10/19 Arena Coliseo Guadalajara [MT]
5) Atlantis & Mr. Niebla b Dos Caras Jr. & Dr. Wagner Jr.
Atlantis blinded Dr. Wagner, who struck out to foul Atlantis in return. Except, he got Dos instead. Rudos picked up the win, and Dos was livid with Wagner after the match. Looks like Dos vs Wagner vs Atlantis here next week. (Put all the titles on the line!) After the match, Dos Jr. says he doesn’t think it was an accident, and a built up torrent of Wagner complains were unleashed. I’m normally all for this, but then the article takes a turn for the very annoying:
The next Sunday could be the last fight of Dos Caras Jr. in Guadalajara before leaving with the World Wrestling Entertainment to pursue his career
…
“Before ending my campaign in Mexico, I go out with this victory the next week, is now virtually tied my exit, missing only a few details, and better than whatever comes, this would be as close to gold brooch my presentations in Guadalajara because this would be virtually my last fight here”
LA LA LA LA LA I’M NOT LISTENING LA LA LA LA LA LA LA. The last few months of this year sure flew by. Do not believe this until WWE announces it, Dos Caras Jr. has entered The Boy Who Cried Wolf territory.
Of course, Dos and Wagner team today in Arena Mexico. Will they remember this angle? Naaaaah.
Don’t have Puebla matches, but I do spot Ultimo Dragoncito and Fire in a singles match there next week.
This Saturday at Arena Coliseo, there will be a mass for Oro, who died 15 years ago.
According to this post, Freelance is changing his name to Mini Zumbido. If this is a plan to backdoor into CMLL thru the minis division, I’m all for it.
LuchandoLibre does the dirty work of post pictures (and information) on Dark Angel’s competition in that fitness competition coming up. It’s actually (ex-)WWE vs CMLL, since former ECW wrestler Brooke Adams is involved.
SCORPIO (FRI) 11/07 Arena Azteca Budokan [Al Filo Del Ring]
1) Super Calo, Veneno, Zumbido vs Hijo de Máscara Año 2000, Pantera, Toxico AAA
2) Juventud Guerrera, LA Park, Tinieblas Jr. vs Hijo del Cien Caras, Mascara Ano 2000 Sr., Universo 2000
Another Scorpio Tribute show. The man is well liked by his peers. They’re trying to get all four Moreno sisters (Rossy, Esther, Alda and Cinthia) for an undercard match, but Cinthia’s probably at the mercy of AAA’s whims.

Dos is the new Guapito with the flip flopping.
If Dos Jr. is already this much out of touch with reality, how messed up is he going to be after the WWE fucks with his head even more? This could end up one scary situation.
Please stop trying to make me believe Vamp is gone from AAA. I won’t believe it till Barnett says it. It’s always horrible to think you’ve finally gotten rid of the guy from regular TV only to have him pop up a few weeks later ready for a new major undeserved push.
“Of course, Dos and Wagner team today in Arena Mexico. Will they remember this angle? Naaaaah.”
Well that’s unfair since no angles really follow from arena to arena. I like it that way b/c it’s not like the average fan in Puebla is going to care about what happened the day before in Guadalajara. Their world is only the Monday night shows and Friday Arena Mexico shows.
“Don’t have Puebla matches, but I do spot Ultimo Dragoncito and Fire in a singles match there next week.”
Not a mask match! … Yet. This feud has been soooooooooooooooooooo
good and old-school. I’m glad they’re doing a straight singles match before the mask match. My early pick for who is losing in the end is Dragoncito b/c on the latest Puebla show he got destroyed and was sporting very stylish hair which should not be hidden under a mask. Of course I’m also all for Fire losing and turning tecnico.
“According to this post, Freelance is changing his name to Mini Zumbido. If this is a plan to backdoor into CMLL thru the minis division, I’m all for it.”
Fuck yeah. Anything to get him out of the IWRG wasteland. Bam Bam stole his look though so he’d already be coming in with one strike against him. Speaking of Freelance – that certain torrent site seems to have the trios titles match between the Oficiales and my dream team up. If it’s anything like the match the week before it could be something special!
First match was better.
@Kyle: First match was amazing but I watched the title match today and didn’t think it was too shabby at all. They edited some of the early matwork stuff which was the only thing I disliked. The dives were absolutely brutal. How 911 survived being crushed by Freelance is beyond me. Really now – IWRG has no problem rushing stip matches and taking masks or hairs for no reason at all so I’m pissed they didn’t follow this up with a captain loses his hair or mask match with Freelance getting shaved or one of the cops unmasking.
BTW, I’m like 99% sure one of the cops is the ex-El Millonario.
Los Oficiales are going to win trio of the year, right? They have like 5 or 6 full televised matches which should be more than enough, not to mention holding two sets of trios titles now.
If Freelance had more exposure there could be a strong case for calling him the current best flyer in the world. The spots he does are so difficult and he never seems to flub anything.
@Rob: “Los Oficiales are going to win trio of the year, right?”
Like, from the magazines? They really ought to, since only the Clowns have been successful as a regular trio act and they’re off TV half the time. From the accomplishment level, the Oficials sure have done the most. But the Oficials are IWRG and so it’ll go to the Circus or CMLL will talk people themselves into one of the CMLL championship trios (Sombra/Volador/Sagrado?) based on one or two matches, or the Laguernas or Villanos based on how hard they’re pushed the last couple of months.
From the TAPATIA awards? Someone needs to make a download-linky Best of Oficials to get the word out. Mobilize!
It’s a dirty work, but someone has to do it…
Enjoy!
@thecubsfan: The thing I hate most about year-end awards from the magazines is the typical ‘Mexicans are lazy’ theory which always proves to be true as the awards are always given based on what happens in the final two months. Box y Lucha is especially guilty of this.
I intend to get right on the Oficiales pimping! There is actually enough out there since you have these two matches, the match to combine both titles on youtube, vs Fantasma/Cerebros and a couple of trios matches from late ’07 that should still count towards voting.
