Air Date
Mex: 07/22 – this was a 5 hour show live, so I still think there’s a possibility they split it.
US: 08/11

The following is cribbing heavily from Medio Tempo‘s report, because they’ve got the only detailed account I’ve seen. I’ve bolded a couple of changes I’ve noticed from early reports. You can read prior TripleMania coverage (live, and day after) elsewhere on this webpage.

Charly Manson exited the cage first, followed by X-Pac. X-Pac and Konnan teamed up to lay out Charly on the outside, and set up a whole bunch of tables. Mesias started to escape, Chessman went after him, and that’s when Chessman took the huge bump off the cage to the tables. This left Kenzo and Cibernetico inside. Mesias tried to help by blowing fire at Cibernetico, but Kenzo got it instead, and that lead to the pin.

Konnan got in a cheap shot on Zorro which lead to the Rikishi pin in the semimain. It sounds like Zorro being stretchered out was storyline (selling the Bonzai Drop) while Parka being stretchered out might or might not have been (landed on his bad shoulder while taking a bump for a Sabu move.)

Sangre Chicana and Octagon did work as seconds in the Guerrera v Guerrera battle. Tirantes was the ref, so you can figure how this went early. Octagon did indeed get tied to the ropes to prevent him from helping, and the comeback started with Pepe Casas coming out to cut him free. Somehow in the battle, Sangre Chicana was locked in ambulance to prevent him from interfering, and Juvi pinned Fuerza with Pepe Casas counting. Fuerza offered a handshake post match, but Juvi refused and walked off with Octagon. Juvi should totally decide to be Octagon Jr. now.

In the notLadder match, Extreme Tiger (second) set up Scoria (second) on a table on the floor and went to the top rope to put him thru, but Ozz shoved Extreme Tiger off, and Tiger hit the floor. The table remained unbroken, so Cuervo set up Lider on the table and did hit his dive thru the table, but Lider and Cuervo were hurt in the process. Crazy Boy overcame took out Escoira and Ozz, winning with a (wait for it) chair assisted flying move to Mexican Powers win the tag titles.

Box Y Lucha?/unmasked Super Calo

The Relevos Incredible matchup ended up being Gran Apache & Laredo Kid vs Super Fly & Super Calo, so it was change of plans. Apache & Calo opted to work it like they were tag partners early on, beating down the Fuerza Aerea duo. Somewhere in here, Laredo Kid missed a dive on Calo, but was all right (relatively.) Like recent AAA tag matches, this was one fall to a finish (not elimination style), so when Apache beat Super Fly, it was over.

The Super Fly vs Super Calo match was held after the ladder match and the Guerreras match. Super Calo was revealed to be Rafael Garcia of DF, 15 year wrestler. They did a bit with Alan Stone consoling him to set up the new alliance.

Alebrije & Cuije beat Scorpio Jr. & Guaptio with planchas to win that match.

Alfa beat Oriental with a Dragon Suplex to win the opener. Oriental was KOed in the process.

Lita performed after the show. Ricky Marvin was announced as coming in September.

Airs

US: 05/05

They worked an angle off Nicho’s firing. Konnan came oout early in the show, and protested Nicho being fired, seeing as he was an indy wrestler allied with the Legion, not an AAA one, so how could AAA fire him? Konnan vowed to cause chaos until he got a face to face in ring discussion with an AAA offical. Before the semimain, Konnan got that discussion – with Cibernetico, who decided he was good enough. Cibernetico claimed Nicho was irresponsible and a coward, so he ran. On the other hand, Cibernetico was happy Konnan didn’t run, because that would mean Cibernetico could end him for good. Unlike all the foreign guys who Konnan has brought into to end Cibernetico, Cibernetico was going to get the job done on Konnan.

Main event had interference, but the Hell Brothers ended up winning. Zorro won the semimain with a foul on Fuerza (I think), and then Fuerza and Octagon brawled. Ozz pinned Laredo Kid in the atomico, and Laredo had to be stretchered out.

The mystery team in the segunda was – uh, no one. Exciting! Gran Apache beat Oriental, so we might have a mixed tag title defense coming up. After the minis won the opener, Kenzo and Mesias beat them up to set up Konnan’s first bit.

Next:
– 04/15 @ Boca del Rio Veracruz; I’m guessing we don’t get a lineup this week
– 04/20 @ Xalapa
04/27 @ Hidalgo

Bonus:

For the first time I can recall, AAA also posted detailed house show previews on their webpage – they’ve been nondescript listings previously. They don’t actually say much, but…

AAA (FRI) 04/06 Arena Azteca Budokan Lineup
1) Canibal & Kaori vs Takamura & Takuya Lee
2) Kumo & Maxima vs Galactico & Skyderman
3) Mascarita Sagrada & Octagoncito vs Mini Apache & Mini Cibernetico
4) Crazy Boy, Joe Lider, Oriental vs Escoria, Ozz, Scoria
5) Chessman & Cibernetico vs La Parka Jr. & Super Porky

Funny thing is, they’ve already posted the 04/13 lineup here. There’s not much related between the two, except Maxima and Skyderman are apparently feuding.

The other lineup is the 04/03 Feria Internacional del Caballo one. The preview talks about AAA running this building for 20 years, which…no. There’s a math issue there.

03/03 AAA TV Results

Updated on 03/07

These may be updated later in the week, after TripleA posts their version and I get corrections.

previous: 02/09, 02/16, 02/23

AAA TV (SAT) 03/03 Plaza de Toros La Concordia [El Volador @ Satanico’s Mansion]
1) Estudiante, La Maravilla, Ray Richard b ?, ??, Rey Cobra
2) Fabi Apache, Gran Apache, Mini Charly Manson b Billy Boy, Mascarita Divina, Sexy Star
3) Alan Stone & Zumbido DRAW Pegasso & Super Fly [AAA TAG, torneo]
4) Alan & Decnnis b Escoria & Espíritu [AAA Tag, torneo]
5) Fuerza Guerrera, Pirata Morgan, Sangre Chicana b Crazy Boy, Joe Lider, Juventud Guerrera
6) Alberije, La Parka Jr., Laredo Kid, Latin Lover b Abismo Negro, Antifaz del Norte, Histeria, Mr. Niebla
7) Black Magic, Head Hunter I, Nicho b Charly Manson, Chessman, Cibernetico

Air Date (projected)
Mexico: 03/11
US: 03/31

Black Magic is Norman Smiley, back in Mexico for the first time in a while. If I remember the story right, the last time he wrestled in CMLL, Ovaciones ripped his performance apart, so I hope he was better here. Nicho and Konnan (in a wheel chair) both interfered in the main event, Konnan cracking a bottle over Cibernetico’s head near the start. Manson got put thru a table to set up the win. After the match, Prez Roldan threatened to suspend Nicho and deport Konnan, Cibernetico argued against it, and Kenzo Suzuki debuted, killing the Hell Brothers.

Nothing else much big on the rest of the show. There was more Apache drama in the non-local opener, and I believe Fabi and Billy refused to fight each other. I know Robert posted differently in a comment, but I read the results as Zumbido pinning Super Fly to win that tag match. I may be wrong.

UPDATED STANDINGS (chart)
P M
12 4 Crazy Boy & Joe Lider
12 4 Cuervo & Ozz
10 5 Alan Stone & Zumbido
10 5 Super Fly & Rey Cometa/Pegasso
6 5 Alan & Decnis
6 5 Espiritu & Scoria
3 2 Antifaz & Histeria
3 3 Alebrije & El Brazo
3 3 Charly Manson & Pirata Morgan
3 3 Chris Stone & Hator
3 3 Mascara Divina & Oriental
3 3 El Angel, Laredo Kid
3 3 Alliens, Gran Apache
3 3 Juventud Guerrera & Psicosis II
3 4 May Flowers, Pimpinela Escarlata
0 1 El Elegido & Intocable

No further tournament tag matches are scheduled, so is it a three way final? Do Stone and Zumbido get left out because they’ve had more matches? Dunno. If it was a draw, that’d eliminate both the Guapo and the Air Force team.

Next: 03/10, 03/18 (Rey de Reyes)

03/18 AAA TV Lineup (Rey de Reyes)

02/23 (results), 03/03 (lineup), 03/10 (lineup)

Let me be the last person to report this…

AAA’s confirmed who’s going to be in the Rey de Reyes match, and it matches the lineup that was circulating around, as does the main event, so I figure this is as much confirmation as we can expect to get that the lineup is correct, 16 days out.

Updated on 03/05: AAA Tag Tournament finalists are announced.

AAA TV (SUN) 03/18 El Toreo De Naucalpan [Mario Rivera @ box y lucha foro]
1) Mascaraita Sagrada, Octagoncito, Mascarita Divina vs Mini Abismo Negro, Mini Chessman, Mini Charly Manson
2) Crazy Boy & Joe Lider vs Joe Lider & Crazy Boy vs Super Fly & Pegasso vs Alan Stone & Zumbido [AAA TAG]
3) Billy Boy vs Apache [hair]
4) Super Porky, Zorro, Alebrije vs Antifaz, Histeria, Mr. Niebla
5) Abismo Negro vs Latin Lover vs La Parka Jr. vs Rhyno vs Octagon vs Fuerza Guerrera [Rey de Reyes]
6) Cibernetico, Chessman, Charly Manson vs Scott Steiner, Kenzo Suzuki, ?

AAA is/was trying to get Kurt Angle for that last main event spot, but the price for him is/was too high.

Rey Misterio Jr. is scheduled to appear in a non-wrestling capacity. WWE’s supposedly is aware that he’s going to be appearing on a show with TNA guys and is supposedly okay with this. I keep waiting for the other shoe to drop.

Thinking about it now – if the Dark Family is facing the Mexican Powers before this show in a non-tournament match, obviously it ought to be Ozz & Cuervo as the other team in the tag final.

Now: Top four finishers move on. I guess I was right, with one of my five hundred guesses.

02/22: Coliseo, IWRG, Tijuana, Monterrey,

CMLL

CMLL (TUE) 02/20 Arena Coliseo Results [cmll]
1) Mini Fantasy, Mini Olimpico b Mini Violencia, Sombrita
2) Apocalipsis, Hooligan, Ramstein b Astro Boy, Explosivo, Trueno
3) Stuka Jr., Tigre Blanco, Tigre Metalico b Dr. X, Loco Max, Mr. Mexico
4) Felino, Mictlan, Ogun b Emilio Charles Jr., Misterioso II, Okumura
5) Black Warrior, Mascara Ano 2000, Universo 2000 b Dr. Wagner Jr., Heavy Metal, Lizmark Jr.

Ramstein and Astro Boy were tearing masks in their match.

The Marco/Alex/Rey vs Atlantis/Ultimo/Universo Arena Mexico semifinal is now listed as a Relevos Increible – I don’t remember that being there when the lineups went up. Maybe not a tecnico turn?

Hijo del Santo says he was contacted by WWE, but turned down the offer because he wanted to remain an independent. He may not return to Arena Mexico until late in the year,, he thinks it’s far too soon to compare Mistico to his father – Mistico’s got to make some movies first. Santo says his Cartoon Network show is for 15 episodes. (Ovaciones)

Ovaciones also has an updated lineup for today’s IWRG card:

IWRG (THU) 02/22 Arena Naucalpan Results
1) Mr. Randal vs Volcan Negro
2) Antaris, Kai, Yamato vs Black Jaguar, Black Stone, Vampiro Metalico
3) Coco Blanco, Coco Rojo, Coco Verde vs Macho II, Trauma I, Trauma II
4) Freelance vs Avisman [IWRG IC WELTER]
5) Bestia Salvaje vs Villano III, Electroshock, Black Pentagon, El Dandy, Hijo del Diablo, Fantasma de la Opera, Suicida [hair, mask, IWRG IC MIDDLE]

The whole undercard changed – maybe Nosawa and Kaz can’t make it now and they shuffled everything else. That title match was originally scheduled for Sunday. That match got changed to a tag match with hair and the title on the line, adding Black Terry and Suicida – guess he isn’t losing his hair tonight.

Does “Mr. Randal” have some dramatic meaning in Mexico? Such an odd name for a wrestler.

WWA (FRI) 02/23 Auditorio Fausto Gutierrez Moreno Lineup [Sol de Tijuana]
1) Angel Negro Jr., Silver Star vs Thunder Mask, Thunderbird
2) Depredador, Fobia, King Azteca vs Black Spider, Rubi Gardenia, Super Astro
3) Blue Demon Jr. vs Dos Caras Jr., Espectro Jr., Hijo de Rey Misterio, Infierno, Mil Mascaras, Olimpico, Coco Rojo, Rayo de Jalisco Jr., Tinieblas, Super Muneco, Volador Jr. [mask]

This was the show I was thinking of last week. It’s Espectro or Infierno, right? Right.

indy (TUE) 02/20 Arena Coliseo Monterrey
2) Corazon Adicto b Burrito
3) Golden Boy b Black Diamond
4) Pancho Tequila b Hijo de Senor Tormenta
5) Humberto Garza Jr. & Ultraman Jr. b Medico Asesino Jr. & Potro Jr.
6) Konan Big b Vudu

The next VIP card is supposed to be announced tomorrow (Ovaciones); Coco Rojo/Super Muneco for the masks has been rumored (which means they’re not losing in Tijuana.) Over on Superluchas, Migrejok responds to responses about a column critical of the VIP concept.

Box Y Lucha 2806 has Mistico, Televisa Deportes winner.

CMLL and Mexico Secretary of Health are partnering in a campaign against tuberculosis. Atlantis and Damian spoke at a clinic about the condition. Even rudos are against infectious diseases. (Ovaciones – pretty good day for them.)

La Presna has a basic preview of the 02/22 AAA TV taping.

Has Kenzo jumped to AAA? They’re always looking for more members of the Foreign Legion. I would put him ahead of Head Hunter I.

CMLL 12/15 Results

CMLL (FRI) 12/15 Arena Mexico Results [superluchas, ova]
1) Flash, Super Nova DQ Artillero, Super Comando
2) Dark Angel, Marcela, Sahori b Amapola, Hiroka, Princesa Sujei
3) Dos Caras Jr., Dr. Wagner Jr., Rey Bucanero b Eclipse, LA Park, Olimpico
4) Mistico, Ultimo Dragon, Volador Jr. b Averno, Efesto, Mephisto
5) Atlantis, Tarzan Boy, Ultimo Guerrero b Damian 666, Halloween, Hector Garza [CMLL TRIOS]
6) Shocker, Universo 2000 b Kenzo Suzuki, Marco Corleone [hair]

In the final fall of the main, Universo beat Kenzo, Marco beat Universo, but Universo came back to foul Marco, who was then pinned by Shocker for the win. Ovaciones points out the match was much longer than the 5 minutes Kenzo has vowed; Ocampo has it at 22 minutes, longest of the night.

Not much said about the semimain. It was the shortest match of the night. CMLL.com indicates we’re not done with Guerreros/Perros title matches yet. When do the tecnicos get a shot at the belts?

Ovaciones has a challenge being made after the fourth match (the second longest of the evening, at 18 minutes) by the tecnicos, but apparently the wrong belt. CMLL.com clears it up: Volador wants a shot at Averno’s CMLL Middleweight Championship, and will get it next week. That could be quite good. FWIW, CMLL’s preview has Volador a big favorite (and you know, they might be right.)

Amapola hurt her hip in the main event. Tecnicos won the opener when Artillero pulled Super Nova’s mask.

Lineups for next week’s DF shows are up on CMLL.com. Of note, we’re short one match on next Sunday’s Coliseo show (which will actually be on Monday), and the main event of Arena Mexico are the trios champs versus a top tecnico team – Wagner/Dos/Rey – in a non title match. Maybe they will get a shot soon?
