Not a lot on the main event. In the semimain, Shocker got Dos with the toque de espalda (Villano V cradle) for the win. Not only did Fabian repalce Mictlan in the fourth, he and Rey Bucanero did the stripping bit they were planning for the Lucha Libre Expo here instead as a Mother’s Day bonus. DQ in the minis match was Damian fouling Shockercito.
(Reforma via Jazzo) El Dandy is threatening to retire because no one will book him. That’s usually how it works. Here, Dandy is not as much complaining about not being offered matches, but not being offered what he feels is a fair price for a wrestler of his stature. He’s angry that they’re low, and he’s angry that they’re balking at things like flying him out, or telling him he’s not big enough star to be worth what he’s asking. Dandy specifically complains about IWRG stopping booking him after he asked for a pay raise. Dandy still wants that title versus career match with Blue Demon Jr., because NWA Mexico is the only promotion that’s treated him right (this says many things about NWA Mexico) but will choose to no longer wrestle before lowering his price. You know, El Dandy hasn’t been a regular in CMLL or AAA since 2003.
Satanico doesn’t like US wrestling or Konnan’s influence on wrestling. This is a non surprise. Neither really are Konnan’s comments to Box Y Lucha about bad wrestling and Perros del Mal.
Box Y Lucha #2921 has Shocker and Dos on the cover. Inside, Mistico says his tour to Japan is not canceled (I suspect time machine – or it’s just postponed, whatever) and it seems like Konnan and the Perros have nice things to say about either out suddenly. HMMMM.
Ohtani’s Jacket watches three good matches.
Schedule might be off the next couple days.

People act like Konnan is GOD or something.Like Konnan possess some kind of super power
He possess carny powers.
So Dos vs. Shocker and Blue Panther vs. Negro Casas now seem to be the top potential stip matches. One will have to happen Triplemania weekend under the name “Juicio Final”. I know Rob pointed out that Juicio has usually been a July show, but I can see it moving for Mania.
@LLL: Negro/Panther probably is more Negro Casas just throwing it out there because he thinks it’s be fun; they still have to book in that direction and haven’t yet. Maybe we’ll get lucky and they’ll do a title match for a fan appreciation show.
They ran the big cage match against TripleMania last year, so we’ll probably get something close to it in a month.
@Anonymous: He also possesses the power to still have a good physique at 44 after having gone through major surgery while still preaching to CNN that wrestlers are being forced to take steroids. HMMMMMMM.
HMMMMMM I SAY.
HMMMMMM.
How can your schedule be off? You just had 2 weeks off for the swine flu!:P
Strangely cmll.com says yesterday’s show was fantastic. All… *8*… matches. Hmmmmmm. That entire show could be the FSE tapings for the rest of the month!
