Full house. More details later today if I have time; I’m sure they’ll be plenty of posts on the ChiPro Wrestling board.
Of course, the big news at least as far as people in Chicago are concerned – are the local lucha shows this weekend. It’ll actually seems part of a bigger mini split tour by FMLL and ELLMEX and I’m sure all sorts of acronyms that don’t actually mean much.
There’s info about the California shows on the So Cal Uncensored board; Park and Wagner are working in the area on Friday and coming to Chicago on Saturday, Rey and Mistico are working in the area on Saturday and then everyone heads to Congress on Sunday.
If you didn’t see the comments down below, I’m working under the assumption that Meltzer is wrong about Rey going to Italy; he wouldn’t have been booked as a replacement for Averno if he knew he was going to Italy.
Saturday: LA Park & Aguila de America vs Dr. Wagner Jr.& Maleficio I main events at the Las Lomas Restaurant in Waukegan. (442 N Green Bay Rd, Waukegan, IL 60085 – Google Map) Doors open at 5pm, tickets are $15. I’ve never been there, don’t know the answer, wondering about parking but guess I’ll figure it when I get there.
Sunday: LA Park & Mistico vs Dr. Wagner Jr. & Rey Bucanero main events at Congress Theatre. (2135 N. Milwaukee Avenue, Chicago, IL, 60647 – google map). Doors open at 6pm, the show is supposed to start at 7pm – even though it shouldn’t be more than a 2:30 show, I’ve got zero chance of making a 10:20 train home, I’m thinking. You gotta get there early to park in the parking lot they direct you towards, and police do ticket the side streets (for concerts, at least.) Tickets are FREE for General Admission and $10 for ringside. I was able to show up very late last time and get a good ringside while I would’ve been stuck way in the back on General Admission, so I think the $10 is worth it.
Full cards are over there in the event lists, but the rest of the matches always are subject to change and I think people are going for the main events anyway.
I’m planning to go to both, but things may come up. I�ll write stuff if I do go.
It’s supposed to rain, and pretty significantly, Saturday night. It’s a good thing it’s not as cold as it should be, because snow would be piling up again. It’ll be nice on Sunday.
