In one of the recent WO.com news updates that I don’t feel like sorting thru at the moment, Steve Sims expected a title change here becuase Hiroka’s heading back to Japan. She is scheduled for a CMLL VIP show on 01/20, so it’s a temporary departure and it’s not like they had to have the belt around for two months. Kinda thought this was coming but didn’t want it to be.

This is the second time Lady Apache’s held both the Mexican and CMLL Women’s Title at the same time. You’re supposed to drop the Mexican one when you win a world title, but…we’ll see.

The big question: what’s the deal with that ref’s pants?

Black Warrior tried to low blow Mistico, but ended up low blowing the ref. That’s going to get you a DQ.

Octagon was recoginized in Xalapa for his 25 years of wrestling. Octagon said sports are good for keep adults from alchol and drug addiction. No comment!

El Halcon #82 is up. There’s an interview with Kenzo (his finisher is called the Hagakure, he wants a title match vs Universo!), a look back at a Centurion Negro/Gran Hamada title match, a Fishman bio (he’s got a fishman fan myspace), Aguila Venezolana bio, and a short profile with Cobalto, which is awesome because I was trying to figure out which guy was Cobalto last week. It turns out, it’s the guy with the C on his mask. Cobalto says he’s wrestled since 94, in Arena Coliseo Guadalajara, but this is the only name he’s ever used.
