The story going about Bucanero is he hasn’t signed with anyone yet (if I’m reading this right.) Neither side is going to use him till he signs with them. Add these names to the list of people rumored to be thinking about leaving (and maybe just looking for better money): Volador Jr., Zumbido, Averno, and Mephisto. I may need to start a list of awesome people who aren’t rumored to jump.
CMLL (TUE) Arena Coliseo 05/03 Results
1) Fire & Sombria b Bracito de Oro & Fantasy
2) StarMAN, Ultimo Vamprio, Brazo de Plata Jr. b Koreano, Jeque, Reyes Veloz
3) Maximo, Alan Stone, Chris Stone b Veneno, Sangre Azteca, Arkangel
Said to be a good match
4) Zumbido, Sagrado, Safari b Emilio Charles, Hijo de Pierroth, Bestia Salvaje Sangre Azteca
(via google.translation)
[Besita] could not arrive at its commitment in the semifinal fight, reason why it was replaced by [Sangre], that little by little is demonstrating its quality and deserves a great opportunity.
5) Mascara Sagrada, Dos Caras Jr., Lizmark b Mascara 2000, Universo 2000, Black Tiger
First two falls were “dry”, but they picked it up with mask ripping in the third. Caras pinned Universo clean in the final fall, and called for a title match.
There were over 2000 people at Saturday’s Coliseo Kid’s Day show – and that’s just the people who were stuck outside wtihout a ticket.
Averno and Mephisto did retain the tag team titles in Puebla.
los dos Tigres (Metalico and Blanco) are getting over with fans and working well together, they hope to challenge for tag team titles soon. No, not Averno and Mephisto’s – Chris and Alan Stone’s. That’d be the Arena Coliseo Tag Team Championship, I believe. Have they defended those in the last three years?
IWRG
There was a lot more news about IWRG yesterday – but I sadly didn’t get around to it. They did announce the IC Trios Tournament will take place two matches at a time each week, until they get to the final.
Heavy Metal will celebrate my birthday by getting a rematch for the IWRG Heavyweight Championship, versus champion Scorpio Jr. No word if they’re actually going to do something to prevent Veneno in.
Tijuana
Negro and Felino take the feud there, facing Halloween and Damian this Friday.

As much as I like Volador Jr. I like seeing him for free in 2/3 Falls matches in CMLL. Zumbido, who I also like but is a sleazy bad man, leaving would be preferable to Volador Jr..
“los dos Tigres (Metalico and Blanco) are getting over with fans and working well together, they hope to challenge for tag team titles soon. No, not Averno and Mephisto’s”
WICKED AWESOME! Which titles would they contend for if it not the tag titles? They could hook up with Felino and go after the National Trios Titles. That would be cool.
The Arena Coliseo tag team titles. Alan and Chris won them long long ago from – Guerrero del Futuro and someone? Robert knows this.
Yeah, they won a one night tournament over…erm…shit this was like the best tournament ever, I should know…Virus and someone. Virus and Fugaz I think. They got awarded the belts and have made two defences, once against Sangre Azteca and Valentin Mayo and the other… not sure. Might have been the same team a few months later. Pretty sure they also hold the Distrito Federal Tag Titles which used to be important and all.

I think the guy who wrote that meant Volador Jr., Zumbido, Averno and Mephisto have signed since they are getting bigger chances on upcoming cards such as Zumbido working the semi-main at Arena Coliseo and Averno/Mephisto all over the place.
I’ll go with Heavy Metal taking the IWRG Title. It used to be his home arena and all.

Their other title defence was against Damian El Guerrero and Guerrero Del Futuro.
