CMLL (SUN) 01/28 Arena Coliseo Results
1) Molotov, Sombra de Plata b Polvora, Vaquero
2) Danger, Super Nova, Trueno b Apocalipsis, Ramstein, Super Comando
3) Leono, Metro II, Tony Rivera DQ Hooligan, Loco Max, Mr. México
4) Felino, Mictlan, Negro Casas b Ephesto, Misterioso II, Shigeo Okumura
5) Dr. Wagner Jr., Místico, Volador Jr. b Atlantis, Olímpico, Último Guerrero

Clean finish in the main event.

Pop Matters has a long article about Lucha Libre in the US, including quotes from Keith of From Parts Unknown. I think there’s stuff that I’d quibble with if I was in a quibbling mood (and also if quibbling was a word), but it’s interesting read.

AULL (SAT) 01/27 Arena Lopez Mateos Results [El Halcon]
1) Angel de Fuego, El Conde, Siki Osama Jr. b Feniz, Mr. Potro, Yakuza
2) Rambo Jr., Supremo Jr. b Tortugullio Ninja II, Tortugullio Ninja III [AULL Tag, 2nd, torneo]
3) Astro Boy, Robin Maravilla b Dr. Karonte I, Dr. Karonte Jr. [AULL Tag, 2nd, torneo]
4) Coco Rojo, Coco Verde b Cerebro Negro, Fantasma de la Opera [AULL Tag, 2nd, torneo]
5) Mistico b Sepultuero [mask]
6) Olimpico, Rey Krimen, Sadico b Rey Bucanero, Terry 2000, Ultimo Gladiador

I’m thinking now that those are supposed to be the second part of the 1st round, not the 2nd round. We’ll see. As seems to be practice, Babe Richard was special referee for a Mistico mask match. Sepulturero had Mistico pinned and pulled him up a couple times; I’m surprised they’d be okay with that (but maybe he was kicking out anyway.) Sepulturero is Sergio Pancheco Hernandez. He’s 31, originally from Tlalnepantla (same city as the arena) and he’s been wrestling for 13 years.

I think the match order was switched due to people arriving late. People came for the mask match, and it sounds like people left before it finished. Rey Krimen got in a low blow on Terry 2000 and covered him for the win, setting up a Super Libre match for next week (and an AULL title match the week after?)

indy (FRI) 01/26 Auditorio de Tijuana Results [El Halcon]
1) Calabera b Hadez
2) Mr. Maldito, Voltio b Forastero, TG Power
3) Angel Negro Jr., Animaniac, Shamu b Hijo de Kendo, Kimura, Thunder Mask
4) Ninja, Ruby Gardenia, Super Astro b King Azteca, Pandillero I, Pandillero II
5) Espectro Jr., Inferno b Blue Demon Jr., Rayman

Espectro Jr. cheated to pin Blue Demon Jr. Setting up a rematch? Maybe? I dunno.

This Esto article talks about Los Dos Tigres plans for the future, if you go all the way down to the last paragraph. (Either a title shot or Dr. X vs Tigre Metalico, for some reason.) Slightly more newsworthy from Arena Mexico: Metro II got hurt, Sangre got in nothing before he yanked Dragon’s mask, and they don’t talk about Halloween’s injury either. Maybe it just looked more devastating on TV, because it looked like The End Of Halloween For All Time on TV.

El Manana talks about the beauty of masks.

Magazines
– Luchas 2000 353 speculates about a Corelone tecnico turn (I bet he’d still feud with Universo.) BTW, I believe Canek really went to the hospital, though not actually due to Mil and Rayo in LA/Chicago
– Super Luchas 197 headlines with Ricky Marvin winning in NOAH.

Lineups are below. Two notes
– Someone’s defending the UWF Middleweight Title. Or saying they are. Or whatever. Yay obscure titles.
– Mistico’s working three times on Sunday, which is three times more than any wrestler in the US is working on Sunday.

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.

Tackle? I guess you might as well put over the guy who’s going to be arond the most.

If you are in the general vacanity of Tijuana, RUN! On Thursday, the 2,300 man police force walked off the job. There’s an ongoing federal investigation into police corruption in Tijuana (it pays better than police work), and as part of it, they wanted all the Tijuana police to hand over the weapons. The police complied, but decided they didn’t want to go out on patrol without a weapon, so they’re just all hanging out at the head quarters. The federal government had already moved the army in, but that was more to weed out the corruption (and the weed) than to take over police duites. If you’re in So Cal and thinking about heading down for a show, think again. (LA Times, via Steve Sims)

Tonight’s Arena Mexico Lineup

CMLL (FRI) 01/05 Arena Mexico
1) Mini Olimpico, Tzuki, Ultimo Dragoncito vs Mini Damian 666, Mini Halloween, Mini Mr. Agulia
2) Lady Apache, Marcela, Sahori vs Amapola, Hiroka, Mima Shimoda
3) Felino, Heavy Metal, Negro Casas vs Damian 666, Halloween, Mr. Aguila
4) Dr. Wagner Jr., Lizmark Jr., Rey Bucanero vs Atlantis, Olimpico, Ultimo Guerrero
5) Mistico vs Averno

This feels off season like, but then you’ve got the Casas brothers working third on the card, so it’s not completely there. If this was a regular Friday card, I’d think we get one more match – we usually do when it’s a single main event.

Mistico and Averno can have good matches in their sleep and this point, so this should be fine. Nothing else seems to be going on here, which means something I’ve completely forgotten about will be the lead story on Saturday.

Bracito de Oro and Fire were missing for the opener, so they just did a singles. Loco Max worked on the tecnico side in the tercera to replace Valiente – and then turned on his partners. Mictlan was subbed out of the fourth match for Leono, and I still don’t have a full idea of what’s going on with him.

Still missing Monday’s results.

12/22: Negro, Perro, Warrior suspended in Tijuana

thecubsfan 5 Comments

Muerte Cibernetica
back when he wasn’t lost at sea

Negro Casas, Perro Aguayo Jr., and Black Warrior have been suspended from wrestling in Tijuana for a year. The Box Y Lucha commission is suspending them for actions on a show last Friday:

– Black Warrior attacked a fan who either attacked him or threw something at him.
– Perro Aguayo Jr. had his trunks pulled down by Santo
– Negro Casas mooned the crowd.

El Sol de Tijuana has the commission’s side. They’ve suspended Latin Lover in the past for similiar incidents, so they’re being consistent. By suspending Warrior, they want to make it clear that they’re not allowing the fans to do stuff to the wrestlers, they’re going to be insisting on better work by the security companies (or changing them altogether) and they’d like the police to be at some of these shows to help throw out unruly fans when necessary.

Twelve months is an awful long time to suspend these guys. I don’t have a big problem with it Black Warrior’s case, but a year’s suspension for pulling the trunks down seems high, because that’s a spot done with no (public?) penalties elsewhere in Mexico. It’s also been pointed out (rafasilva) that Santo is mysterious escaping prosecution here, despite being the one who pulled down Perro’s trunks.

I didn’t hear anything about any of this until people started talking about it on message boards yesterday. If what happened was this offensive, you’d think someone would’ve said something about it much sooner. Maybe I missed it?

Suspensions took effect on Wednesday and run till 12/20/07. All the local promoters and CMLL have been informed they can not use these three guys in Tijuana until the suspension is up.

CMLL (TUE) 12/19 Arena Coliseo Guadalajara Results
1) Milenio b Thunder Boy
2) Fraile de la Muerte b Estrella de Jalisco
3) Asesino Negro b Lider
4) Azazel b Guero Loco
5) Fabian el Gitano, Gallo, Metro II b Hombre Sin Nombre, Mascara Magica, Toxico
6) Cien Caras Jr., Mascara Ano 2000 b Leon Blanco, Rayman
7) Mistico b Ultimo Guerrero

Rayman was going for a top rope springboard when the top rope, and he fell hard. Last I heard is he’s alright. The CMLL report was all “when you’re doing athletic things, sometimes bad things can happen”.

AAA (MON) 12/18 Gimnasio Municipal Irapuato Results [El Sol de Irapuato]
1) Chiva Rayada I, Chiva Rayada II b Muerto Viviente I, Muerto Viviente II
2) La Parkita, Mascarita Divina, Mascarita Sagrada b Mini Abismo Negro, Mini Charly Manson, Mini Chessman
3) Brazo de Plata Jr., El Brazo, Oriental b Chris Stone, Pirata Morgan, Pirata Morgan Jr.
4) Charly Manson, Chessman, Cibernetico b Cuervo, Espiritu, Ozz, Scoria

Zorro’s out due to injury, so Oriental replaced him in the tercera. Muerte Cibernetica was supposed to be part of the main event, but he’s still trapped in that coffin.

AAA posted a lot of pictures from the Toluca taping on their website.

ESTO has quick bios of Volador Jr. and Averno, leading into their title match today. (They kinda give away that El Hijo del Cien Caras is not related to Cien Caras.)
