Shocker’s gone from CMLL.
Juan Manuel Mar, “head of programming of CMLL” (and the guy who’s been making the public statements all week) confirmed it, saying Shocker didn’t give a reason but did say thanks. Mar said no one is indispensable and they’ll find a guy to replace him.
AAA hasn’t said anything about Shocker yet.
re: the NWA Title: Dr. Wagner Jr was confirmed as new champion, but he’ll to defend within the title in the next 30 days versus (wait for it) Rey Bucanero. Again, need these rankings. May make my own up if I don’t get them.
Olimpico has started working out again. He’s about two to three (leaning to three) weeks from showing up again. Besides the near broken neck, he also hurt his toe. So sad.
IWRG: Heavy Metal has filed a protest (!) over Veneno costing him the Heavyweight Title last week. He wants a rematch, and for Veneno to either be suspended or forced to face him in a hair/hair match. Good luck with that.

1) Panterita vs Mr. Libra

I love watching CMLL (on SAMURAI-TV in Japan) !
and I visited your blog.
What is Mistico’s finishing move?
That’s like flipping piledriver…
That’s great!
I’m not sure if that move – he doesn’t have a name for it, but it’s Amazing Red’s Code Red and generically a bodyscissors powerbomb – is his finisher, because he uses the Torando Armbar near as much.
But what do I know, you saw that list of unrecapped CMLL.
Thank you for your response.
That Rolling Clutch Pin(?) is very beatiful!
I watched Mistico got pin Averno in Arena Mexico on February 12.
The tornado armbar is called “La Mistica”.
