- Thursday, 1pm

Everything above should be self explanatory, but if you're curious or new and don't mind that this thing keeps on getting longer:

Galavision (US)
- Since August of '06, Galavision has shown the AAA show from Mexico, and the main CMLL show is no longer available in the US.
  - When AAA had a three hour slot in Mexico, the full three hour show aired.
  - Since AAA has been shorted to 2:30 hours in 2008, an even more edited 2:00 version is aired in the US
- There is a three week delay from when episodes are broadcast in Mexico.
  - Galavision's weekend sports weekend show Accion always airs a clip of that weekend's AAA action as aired in Mexico, exposing the delay
- The Sunday "Lucha de Vuelta" shows have become same week repeats of the Saturday show.
- The same "first-run" episode airs on Saturday afternoon (usually at 2pm ET/PT, time slot subject to change around futbol airings) and repeat Saturday/Sunday overnight at 3am ET/PT. The same show repeats once more under the "Lucha De Vuelta" name on Sunday afternoon (usually at 1pm ET/PT, time subject to change for the same reasons.)
- Due to live futbol, airing times may be different depending on which version of Galavision you're getting - there's a feed available to west coast non-dish users. E: stands for the East (main) feed, W: stands for the West (alt) feed.
MVS produced shows:
- 52MX (US and Mexico, also known as Canal52)
  - A one hour show named Guerreros del Ring airs four times each weekend, showing two recent CMLL matches.
  - 52MX is an MVS owned digital network in Mexico. Due to ongoing issues with the leading satellite provider (SKY), it's not available on Mexican satellite packages, only cable systems.
  - In the US, 52MX never got satellite coverage, but was picked up by many cable systems (Comcast among them) for it's first years of existence, as it was free to all cable systems (some of which turned around and put it on pay digital tiers.) When 52MX started charging fees to use their channel in May of 2008, most cable systems dropped it. The network has a small reach and exists more as part of a long range media plan than a relevant network.
- Fox Sports (Fox Sports Latin America in Mexico)
  - A one hour show named Guerreros del Ring airs four times each weekend, showing two recent CMLL matches.
  - Both shows are produced by the same people, with the same graphics and announcers. Only the references to the network change.
  - This show aired on Fox Sports en Espanol in the US until the end of 2008, when it was not renewed. It continued to air on Mexico's equivalent.
- The two shows pull from a pool of Sunday (Arena Coliseo) matches and unaired Friday (Arena Mexico) shows.
- Historically, 52MX has tended to get the second match from Friday's and the main event from Sunday's show, leaving the the next two highest matches from Sunday's show to Fox. As time has gone by, these rules have been more flexible.
- Typically, any feud or storyline starting on one show will continue to air only on that show thru competition, regardless of where the match is scheduled on the card. There does seem to be attempts to make sure each show gets a fair amount of feuds/blowoff matches.
Galavision (Mexico)
- The main CMLL shows airs on Saturday, featuring the previous days Arena Mexico show. The length of the show varies from week to week, but it's most often on for around 1 hour and 45 minutes and shows the top three matches
- The main AAA shows airs on Sunday, featuring a recent TV taping. The show is now listed as a 2:30 show, but can change slot from week to week depending on sports program.
CadenaTres
- A two hours show airs, showing the top four matches from the previous Tuesday taping.
- The top four matches are usually shown, though they've occasionally shown the opener.

There's also lucha shows in airing the US on Canal52 and Fox Sports en Espanol. Those are listed below the Galavision listing. They're one hour shows, currently showing six day old matches from Arena Coliseo. Each show shows different matches from the event.

Like this paragraph, this week's shows are highlighted in gray.
