5) Hijo de Pirata Morgan, Máscara Año 2000 Jr., Universo 2000 b Pantera, Rayo de Jalisco Jr., Scorpio Jr.

CMLL (MON) 05/03 Arena Puebla [Fuego en el Ring]
1) Karisma & Mr. Rafaga b Black Tiger & Blue Center
2) Leono, Starman, Tony Rivera b Disturbio, Mortiz, Semental
3) La Comandante, La Seductora, Princesa Blanca b Estrella Mágica, Lluvia, Luna Mágica

5) El Alebrije, Histeria, Psicosis DQ Hijo del Fantasma, La Sombra, Shocker
In the third fall, Psicosis went to foul Fantasma, Fantasma avoided him, and Psicosis yanked his mask off anyway. Fantasma challenged Psicosis to a singles match next week, wanting to expel the invaders from CMLL. No sign of the Dinamitas.
ESTO looks forward to more Mistico vs Volador in today’s Arena Mexico main event. It’s technically relevos main event with Garza/UG/Mistico vs Volador/Sombra/Felino, but if Felino is willing to get along with his partners, it’s easily rudos vs tecnicos.
A poster on Box Y Lucha says the Perros SLP show drew 30% capacity, and the promoter lost 200,000 Mexican pesos ($16,104USD) on the show. Pictures from Tijuana look 50% full or less. There doesn’t seem to be a turnaround here, and I’d bet they’re not going back to these places with the same promoters.
Despite losing again (clean), Dragon Rojo Jr. vows not to give up feuding with Mascara Dorada. Mascara Dorada would like to have a mask match vs Dragon Rojo, but Dragon Rojo isn’t answering. (Well, duh, you keep beating him.) Sangre Azteca went on a photo shoot.
AAA and SuperLuchas announced Nicho & Lider vs Sabu & Super Crazy for the Lucha Fan Fest at the end of the month.
AAA has a video bit up with Nikia, Dorian Roldan’s new secretary. Looks like she’s the same person as the Nikkia who worked Rey Bucanero’s club shows but never made it onto CMLL TV.
DJ Spectro says Estrellita has been dealing with personal issues and may resurface with a different company.
Galactar lost his mask in Monterrey.
PWInsider says the MTV2/Marco Corleone show will tape shows in Las Vegas, on 05/29 and 05/30 and will not air until Spring. Differnet location, and a lot later air date than I had heard previously. The article also mentions MTV had talked to AAA, but changed their mind after an AAA pilot tested badly. I want to know what they actually said about the AAA show, but I got to to figure it’s the same stuff we would say.

I’m curious about the now-AAA’less lucha show. Will Marco be wrestling on it? Is it just going to be California indy lucha guys? Outside talent from everywhere if it’s no longer affiliated with any major promotion?
Wouldn’t common sense point to the Coreleone show involving Perros del Mal? I mean, he’s working with them now, it wouldn’t be such a stretch..
Good luck Marco Corleone. This is a huge venture.
