IWRG (SUN) 11/30 Arena Naucalpan [the gladiatores]
1) Shuriken b Imperio Azteca
2) Gemelo Fantastico I & Gemelo Fantastico II b King Drako & Nemesis (IWRG)
3) Judas el Traidor , Masada, Tetsuda b Goleador, Jack, Pendulo
4) Black Terry, Cerebro Negro, Dr. Cerebro b Oficial 911, Oficial AK47, Oficial Fierro [super libre]
5) Pendulo, Scorpio Jr., Tinieblas Jr. DQ Head Hunter I, Máscara Año 2000, Veneno

Pendulo replaced Dr. Wagner Jr. That’as a bit of a drop off. MascaraY2K distracted one ref, but got caught fouling Scorpio by the other ref for the DQ. That same referee, Reyes Rosas, refused to leave the ring in the semimain to allow that match to take place under super libre rules (ref outside the ring, only leaning in to count pinfalls) and had to be replaced by a different referee. There’s an angle here, I just don’t get it.

A couple more articles trickling out from yesterday’s stuff

– Averno says he doesn’t want to be considered the leader of the group that’s named after him. Don’t think that’s going to work. Ovaciones says he IS the leader, so this is not clear. What is worth knowing is they expect to add more members and never to know defeat. I guess losing by DQ is not knowing defeat?

– Mictlan says he’s happy to get a big win, despite coming in with an injury suffered on Friday. He’s up for whatever CMLL has for him next, though he’d like to demask Dragon Rojo someday.

– Loco Max was sad he lost to the ‘dancer’, but also that he hurt his ribs during the match.

(SuperLuchas) The NWA is not officially recognizing Sunday’s NWA Welterweight title match between Sombra and Ephesto. Which is the same as it’s been since at least 1991.

Leading up to Lucha Libre London, wrestling101.com has a really good interview with Mascarita Sagrada. He was not a fan of lucha libre growing up, he was a fan of martial arts and just happened to see some people practicing wrestling when he was working out one day and decided to try it as a hobby. Lots of talk about the Juniors Division, other Mascarita Sagradas and his career.

SuperLuchas looks back at the Villanos vs the Hawaiian Beasts.

The Gladiatores also has an interview with Abismo Negro and many from the Perros press conference. They also profile the Tampicools (Okuzono & Black Master)

Seattle’s the Stranger has a very positive review of the The World of Lucha Libre book.

There’s a lucha libre show in Chile next Sunday. They drew 3,000 for their premiere show, and tickets are going from $2000 to $6000 Chilean pesos. (That’s $3 to $9US)

Mr. Reyes posted photos of DTU wrestlers visiting a children’s hospital for the teleton.

CMLL (SUN) 12/07 Arena Coliseo Guadalajara

2) Virgo vs Samurai, Thunder Boy, Quazar, Neon, Milenio, Azazel, Relampago Azul [mask]
3) Hijo del Fantasma, La Mascara, Marco Corelone vs Lizmark Jr., Terrible, Texano Jr.
4) Shocker vs Mr. Niebla

Shuffled around to do the singles main event like it’s 1999.

CMLL (MON) 12/08 Arena Puebla
1) Blue Center, Legionario, SWAT vs Aguila Guerrera, Ares, Rafaga
2) Bam Bam, Nino de Acero, Pequeno Ninja vs Pequeño Black Warrior, Pequeño Damian 666, Pequeño Violencia

4) Dos Caras Jr., Marco Corelone, Toscano vs Atlantis, Mr. Niebla, Último Guerrero
5) Místico vs Negro Casas [CMLL WELTER]

This will be Mistico’s first defense of this title this year. Just made it.

CMLL (TUE) 12/09 Arena Coliseo Guadalajara
1) Plata vs Fraile de la Muerte
2) Silueta vs Magnifica
3) Nube Roja vs Exterminador
4) Magnum vs Infierno
5) Hijo del Fantasma & Valiente vs Misterioso II & Sangre Azteca
6) Terrible & Texano Jr. vs Héctor Garza & Volador Jr.

The big news here is there’s a local women’s match that isn’t Silueta vs Athena.

12/03: Mexico, GDL, press conference, press conference

CMLL (TUE) 12/02 Arena Mexico [ovaciones, ESTO, sololuchas]
1) Ángel Azteca Jr., Angel de Oro, Metálico b Artillero, Pólvora, Súper Comando
2) Dark Angel, Lady Apache, Sahori vs Amapola, Hiroka, Princesa Sujei
3) Dragon Rojo Jr., Okumura, Sangre Azteca b Mascara Dorada, Máscara Púrpura, Valiente
4) Mictlán b Loco Max [hair]
5) Hijo del Fantasma, Místico, Shocker DQ Averno, Mephisto, Texano Jr.

Rudos ripped up Mistico’s mask for the DQ, with Ephesto (who missed his match) and Terrible . Micltan won the first fall, Loco max came back to win the second fall, and Mictlan took the third. It was a nice one hair match winning streak for Loco Max. Okumura replaced Ephesto, who must’ve been too busy dieting for the big title match.

CMLL (TUE) 12/02 Arena Coliseo Guadalajara [MT]
5) Casanova b Super Maquina [hair]
6) Black Warrior, Euforia, Mr. Niebla b Leon Blanco, Máximo, Volador Jr.

Toscano wasn’t really back until he missed a show. Leon Blanco replaced him here. Casanova kept his hair, Super Maquina did not keep his hair. Nice Frank Gore jersey anyway.

(CMLL, Notimex) Before Tuesday’s show, CMLL held a press conference to announce a few things
– the Jauria del Terror is no longer than Jauria del Terror. Averno’s group is now Los Hijos del Averno. Same members, new name.
– Sangre Azteca has left the Guerreros to form his own group. The Guerreros are down to Rey, UG, and Atlantis.
– Shocker wants to restart the Guapos. No lineup announced, but Corelone, Garza, Toscano and Maximo are discussed.
– promotion for CMLL photographer Rosalio Vera’s “101 Llaves y lances de la Lucha Libre”. I want to get that.
– Hype for this Sunday’s show in Arena Mexico and next Sunday’s in GDL as well.

It surely was a massive coincidence the Perros del Mal promotion already had announced they were running a press conference for this same day. News from there, via ESTO (1, 2), WagnerMania and SoloLuchas
– Perro explained their offices are next to Arena Mexico because they were planning on working with CMLL to start. Not so much now; Perro’s not happy about CMLL running a big show agianst them, and will give CMLL a war if they want one. Looks like CMLL’s tickets are cheaper than Perros.
– Olimpico was present, so that confirms his jump. He was added to the rudos in the semimain, with Rayman adding to the tecnicos. Olimpico doesn’t look happy in the pictures. Ayako Hamada and Martha Villalobos were there as well, so they’re probably in the women’s match.
– Dr. Wagner Jr. declared Perro has won, and CMLL has lost. I guess they don’t need to run a show then! Wagner also declared CMLL could not veto him, because he would veto CMLL first. He must’ve vetoed CMLL already, because Box Y Lucha has CMLL saying he’s banned again. He’s on a CMLL show in Pachuca on Saturday, so we’ll see how that goes.
– Dr. Wagner Jr. and Cibernetido didn’t get along and teased problems for their match.

Box Y Lucha also posted a few articles from #2899
– the headline story is Cibernetico saying he rejected an offer from CMLL. I’m not sure this means that actually happened.
– Konnan is sad to see Cibernetico leave AAA, and vows to push people regardless of nationality. I’m sure every comment on this post will agree to take Konnan at his word on both points.
– Parka Jr. is also sad Cibernetico left, but wishes him well. Parka says the doctors told him it’d take a year after his shoulder surgery for him to totally heal, so he’s still getting better every day. At the same time, he says he only takes one day off per month, which can’t help.
– Aerostar doesn’t remember anything between diving on Teddy Hart and waking up in the ambulance. That’s not a good sign. The doctor said he had a Cerebral contusion, so Aerostar sat out five whole days.

El Martinete has a nice Pierroth theme this month.

Slam Canada writes about a showing of the Vampiro documentary.

SuperLuchas looks back at Scorpio Jr. vs a Ninja Turtle

AAA (THU) 12/04 Tormenta del Oeste, Tulancingo, Hidalgo
1) Crazy Boy, Fabi Apache, Ultimo Gladiador vs ?, Decnnis, Tiffany
2) Abismo Negro & Alex Koslov vs Black Abyss & Chessman

Okay, either Abismo Negro is back on the road or Black Abyss is better than anyone ever figured. (Or there’s a third Abismo Negro, but I refuse to consider that possibility.)

According to Ovaciones, Leono and Maximo will be out two weeks. Leono hurt his right elbow, Maixmo hurt an ankle.

CMLL (TUE) 05/01 Arena Queretaro Lineup [Knotty @ el martinete]
1) Alasthor b Furia Dorada Jr.
2) Drabek I, Drabek II b La Flecha, Lince [1, LLQ TAG]
3) El Corsario, El Toro b Espiritu Negro, Ozuno
4) Loco Max, Nitro b Mictlan, Satanico
5) Dr. Wagner Jr., Rey Bucanero b Olimpico, Tarzan Boy

Satanico turned on Mictlan, naturally. Show on the 15th will have a cibernetico with Stuka Jr., Super Nova, Maximo, Leono, Flash, and Astro Boy.

CMLL (TUE) 05/08 Arena Coliseo Lineup [CMLL Magazine]

4) Mr. Aguila, Damian 666, Halloween vs Sagrado, ?, Mictlan
5) Jushin Liger, Atlantis, Ultimo Guerrero vs Dos Caras Jr., Hijo de Lizmark, Ultimo Dragon

Jeque lives! Also, Liger. (The ? is Maximo, but obviously no.)

According to this post (El Halcon), Mistico no-showed the SLP show yesterday and a riot ensued.

indy (FRI) 05/04 Arena Monterrey
1) Perla Negra vs Paty Rey
2) Indio Payutla & Mosco vs Dark Side & Sika
3) Cazador, Ejecutor, Tormenta Negra vs Puma de Plata, Relampago Azul, Zorro Plateado Jr.
4) Calaquita & La Parkita vs Mini Batman & Mini Killer
5) Black Power, Hijo del Diablo, Shu el Guerrero vs Angel del Amor, Azteca Warrior, Casanova

Note because they haven’t been running Friday shows previously.

Ovaciones also hypes up the Luchas 2000 show for this weekend.

A new arena has opened up Monclova, which they’re calling “Arena Monclova“. That must’ve been tough. They’re planning on twice monthly AAA shows along with boxing and other entertainment on other days. Judging from the picture, it’s not a building, just an open space with bleachers and chairs set up.

Univision has an article on Intocable, who’s apparently in one of their telenovals. The subtitle of the article is “El nuevo latin lover” and that’s very amusing.

El Halcon #85 is up. Inside
– Q&A with Canek Jr. His favorite foreigner? Dennis Rodman. Well, he did wrestle.
– Second part of their interview with the Kaoma Family
– Interview with Zocar, middleweight champion of Morelos.
– Profile of El Africano, a rudo from the 60s and 70s in Morelos, who passed away last August.

Noticas de Oaxaca profiles Vuelo Espacial, who wrestled a lot around there and Mexico City, including a long tag run with Rayo Tapaito and CMLL wanted to sign, but he turned them down so he could go back Oaxaca and finish his medical degree, and I have trouble believing it for some reason. They mention Vuelo Espacial was winner of the 2001 Gran Alternativa – except that was Psicodelico Jr. I’m confused here.

CMLL (SUN) 01/07 Arena Coliseo Results
1) Molotov, Sombra de Plata b Artillero, Zayco
2) Starman, Tigre Blanco, Tony Rivera DQ Apocalipsis, Loco Max, Ramstein
3) Arkangel, Okumura, Sangre Azteca b Mascara Purpura, Mictlan, Virus
4) Alex Koslov, Averno, Mephisto b Felino, Sagrado, Volador Jr.
5) Dos Caras Jr., Lizmark Jr., Shocker b Black Warrior, Olimpico, Tarzan Boy

It appears Mictlan wrestled, so I guess he’s okay.

Mictlan’s one of the interviews in the newest El Halcon. Mictlan says he debuted in 1990 in Arena Coliseo Guadalajara, and his brother and his uncle trained him, but doesn’t reveal their names for obvious reasons. There’s also interviews with La Nazi – she worked as another gimmick before this one? in AAA? – Polvora, Sombra de Plata (who missed the 1st half of ’06 with an hand injury – which could be reinjuried with any strong tug – and gives a long rant about it being up to the 1st/2nd match guys to force the schedulers to move them up rather than complaina bout not giving oppurtinties), and a bio of wrestler turned referee El Judio (the Jew).

Magazines
– Super Luchas #194 hypes Ultimo Dragon’s plans for 2007.
– Luchas 2000 #350 has new champions and hair losses
– Lucha 2000 Special #17 has a year in review.

Newspaper articles
– Atlantis was visiting children’s hospital this Saturday as part of Dia de Reyes celebrations. So was Super Parka.
– El Vanguardia hypes up local wrestler El Relampago.
– Noticias Oaxaca has a obit of local wrestler Ray Alcantara.
– El Tiempo has an article about former famous rudos in Columbia now living in poverty.

Lineups:
– Hiroka/Apache rematch tonight in Puebla.
– Still no word about AAA tapings. They haven’t updated their site in 18 days.

01/07: Accion

thecubsfan 4 Comments

CMLL.com is under the impression that Averno accepted a challenge for a mask match, and not a title match. They would know, but we’re probably still a ways from having it.

Mictlan is listed as working next Sunday, so…[throws up hands].

Accion highlights

CMLL: Mistico vs Averno. All the usual spots, plus Avenro got to work his tope con giro in. They gave these clips a lot of time, and there were a lot of highlights to show.

AAA: The Relevos AAA atomicos match which led off GdT, but that they didn’t actually show. I guess they showed it this week? (Well, obviously, or it wouldn’t be here.) This set of clips got a lot of time too – I guess Accion was running short this week. Seemed like as good as these things are. Gran Apache ends up shoving Billy Boy into Fabi Apache, and Fabi goes flying to the floor. That never helps a relationship. Also, they lose.
