10/19 news

CMLL (TUE) 10/18 Arena Coliseo Results [cmll]
1) Polvora & Vaquero b Espiritu & Karimsa
2) Super Comando, Flecha, Ramstein b Leono, Sombra de Plata, Molotov
3) StarMAN Volador Jr., Sagrado, Trueno b Safari, Pantera Misterioso II, Metro
Nice subs. If Safari’s going out, he’s going out with a match the people at Coliseo really enjoyed; they both got money post match.
4) Brazo de Plata Felino, Lizmark Sr., Black Warrior b Terrible, Emilio Charles Jr., Canek Jr.
5) Mistico, Dr. Wagner Jr., Negro Casas DQ Ultimo Guerrero, Averno, Mephisto
Ultimo low blowed Wagner.

Off of that main event finish, the current plan is to do Dr. Wagner Jr. vs Ultimo Guerrero for the UWA Heavyweight Championship next week. That could be fun.

Brazo de Plata debuted in a vignette last night for Friday Night’s SmackDown. SPOILER: He ate a ham. Also debuting were someone in a Mascarita Sagrada (I don’t dare guess which one), possibly Pierrothito and one guy. They debuted backstage, as ideas from the heel Network executive (so they’re bailing on this already) and did not wrestle. If I get definite names, I’ll update this later.

Ovaciones followed/stalked Mistico for a day. It’s perfect Ovaciones, because while they talk much about Mistico being impressed by the printing presses when he came by the newspaper, they just off hand mention he had a meeting with the bookers and don’t give any more detail, because that’s far less important than the presses.

StarMAN and Sangre Azteca are in Japan from 10/19 to 11/08 – actually, perhaps since yesterday, given Starman’s no show.

Satanico is forced to team up with FdT in Arena Neza this week. No word on who they’re facing.

Blue Panther will be out one week, after hurting his left elbow at last week’s Arena Mexico show. That’d put him out of the Santo show tomorrow, and the Ring Side show on Saturday.

Box Y Lucha #2736 is up. Inside
– Cover of Mistico and Famous Soccer Player exchanging gear. Inside, they talk about how great the other one is, and how great futbol and lucha is.
– Poster of Mil Mascaras in a couple of movies. It’s neat looking.
– Mil Mascaras talks about the new movie he’s filming.
– Words with Sagrado, Texano Jr., Maximo on winning the Mexican Trios Titles. The lead in is all “we didn’t think they had any chance – guess we were wrong.” Sagrado dedicates the win to Texano Sr. Texano Jr. invites all challenges. Maximo says they’re three very different person with one common goal.
– Lady Apache sorta explains her situation. She would’ve loved to be in the CMLL Women’s Tournament, but she had to wrestle in the US that night. She denies she’s no showed any show at any time ever, more or less.
– Lucha Horoscopes. I’ll just point you towards it and back away.
– Head Hunter I is trying to get back in CMLL.
– A column about the life of a luchadore.
– Ultimo Guerrero explains that Rey Bucanero, Tarzan Boy, Olimpico and Atlantis are all on the same page. Rey’s completely okay now, and please forget we teased the split.
– Jado & Gedo hype. Like elsewhere, they mention they’ve got history in lucha libre, but not their past gimmicks.
– How did you start in wrestling: Olimpico. He talks more about his career than his start, though.
– Axxel talks about his start.

After seeing the pictures, I can kinda see new HsN = Safari, but I don’t completely buy it. I need to see him blow something in the ring before I’m completely sure.

I’m taping the radio bit in about 3 hours. This’ll be interesting.
