05/15: Mistico to return tonight?, La Parka Jr. to return tommorow?, Puebla, Magazines

Ovaciones reports Mistico will wrestle tonight in Palenque de la Feria de Celaya, Guanajuato. This is far ahead of the most optimistic return, which means all that praying paid off for Mistico or he decided “screw it” and is going to be wrestling in pain for quite some time.

The lineup is something like

CMLL (TUE) 05/15 Palenque de la Feria de Celaya
1) ? & Ultimo Dragonicto vs Mini Damian 666 & Mini Halloween
2) Dark Angel & Lady Apache vs Amapola & Princesa Sujei
3) La Mascara, Mistico, Volador Jr. vs Damian, Halloween, Mr. Aguila

CMLL

According to an interview with the promoter in El Sol del Bajio, La Parka Jr. will defintely return for his show tomorrow in Ceyela. I guess no one wants to miss a date in that town?

A post on Box Y Lucha says Pimpinela will be out 2-3 weeks due to injury.

PYVC (SUN) 05/13 Poliforum Zamna de Merida [Yukacoolgráfico @ elmartinete]
1) Buitre Lee & Dr. Siniestro b Panther Boy & Rey Persa
2) Espartano, Lizmark Sr., Proverbio b Blade, Cachorro, Chupacabras
3) Black Soul b Titanick [OLX HARDCORE]
4) Dr. X, Eclipse, Mictlan b Cachorro Jr., Pierroth, Pierroth Jr.
5) Damián 666, Halloween, Universo 2000 b Marco Corelone, Super Parka, Villano III

This was supposed to have a Hijo del Solitario vs Villano III super libre bout, but Solitario hurt (arm? shoulder? something where he needed to use a sling!) and Villano III replaced Shocker, who appears to have gone AWOL. They did offer refunds for those who wanted, but judging from the pictures, they didn’t draw that much to start with.

CMLL (MON) 05/14 Arena Puebla [hugo999 @ box y lucha]
1) King Jaguar & Super Star b La Mafia & Mr. Rafaga
2) Fuerza Chicana, Toro Bill, Toro Bill Jr. DQ Forajido, SWAT, the Tiger
3) Loco Max, Misterioso II, Virus b Centella de Oro, Leono, Tigre Rojo
4) Damian 666, Halloween, Mr. Aguila b Ares, Fureza Chicana, Sangre Azteca
5) Averno, Mephisto, Texano Jr. b La Mascara, Rey Bucanero, Volador Jr.
6) Marco Corelone, Negro Casas, Ultimo Dragon b Atlantis, Jushin Liger, Ultimo Guerrero

4th match was an unannounced random bonus match. I think Marco pinned Guerrero, but whatever happened, it sets up a singles match for next week.

Ovaciones says El Hijo del Diablo will replace Lizmark Jr. in Coliseo tonight. Which means Diablo, who hasn’t worked CMLL in as long as I can recall, is lined up to work as a tecnico. Strange. I’m thinking that was a typo.

A blog entry on Milenio complains about the state of lucha libre. Hector Garza is quoted as complaining that wrestlers don’t need to know how to fight and just need a pretty face, a good body and know how to dance. Sure sounds like he’s talking about himself, based on his recent work.

Magazines:
Luchas 2000 #368 is all highlights from their show.
Guerreros del Ring #87 has Mascara Sagrada on the cover
El Halcon Net #90 has interviews with Santo, Texano Jr., and Brillante, and the first part of a story about Gimnasio Ham Lee. Brillante is 17!

Canek chats on Box Y Lucha tomorrow.

IWRG’s site is still down. No Sunday or Tuesday Coliseo results.

Can someone explain the Dr. Morales/Brazos thing?

05/13: Mexico, VIP, TV notes

ESTO

CMLL (FRI) 05/11 Arena Mexico [superluchas, ESTO]
1) Euforia, Nosferatu, Virus b Brillante, Leono, Stuka Jr.
2) Averno, Black Warrior, Mephisto b Felino, Heavy Metal, Negro Casas
3) Último Guerrero b Dr. Wagner Jr., Dos Caras Jr., Sagrado, Atlantis, Lizmark Jr., Rey Bucanero, Olímpico, Marco Corelone, Jushin Liger, Alex Koslov, Último Dragón, Hirooki Goto, Minoru Suzuki, Pierroth, Shigeo Okumura [Gran Prix, ciber]

It did indeed turn out to be a ciberentico, and 45 minute one at that. As seems to be the more common practice of late, most everything before the first elimination was cut out on TV. Ocampo has the elimination order, and the story points were

– Sagrado replaced Shocker (no explaination no show yet again). They seemed to give Sagrado the push they would’ve given Shocker, lasting to the final three over much usual higher profile guys. Wouldn’t be a bad idea to continue this trend – I think I’d like to see a summer long Sagrado/Ultimo feud as much as the proposed Shocker/Ultimo one, and I’m not sure there’s much of a difference in drawing power at this point.
– Alex and Atlantis got the token double elimination, so they may still be tied to each other for future matches.
– Ultimo and Rey teamed up a bit before Rey got tossed
– Minoru Suzuki got DQed on interference (Takayama came in and helped put the boots to Ultimo); no surprise the Triple Crown champ wasn’t taking a pinfall here
– Corelone pinned Dos after the Superman dive, and they teased that as future feud
– Liger pinned three men (Rey, the Doc, Sagrado) but was beaten by Ultimo Guerrero via Guerrero Special for the win.

Ultimo’s the first two time winner and first back to back winner. I think this means he’s entitled a shot at Open the Dream Gate championship, but please note only I think that.

The feud that was set up out of all this was…Negro Casas vs Black Warrior. Not sure why no Ephesto, except they needed Warrior in there to start a quickie hair match, which somehow came out of an otherwise unremarkable semimain. No date was announced, so I’m somewhat iffy on this, but from the reports and CMLL’s news update on it, we’re evidently supposed to take this seriously.

Opener was said to be good. It looks like Virus may have an alliance with the newest Infernals.

VIP (SAT) 05/12 Roots Magic Club [ESTO]
1) King Fish, Leon Guerrero, Super Nino b Black Heart, Halcon Guerrero, La Mosca
2) Coco Amarillo, Coco Azul, Coco Rojo b Axxel, Caramelo, Super Muneco
3) Negro Navarro & Solar I DRAW Black Terry & Mano Negra
4) Blue Demon Jr., El Dandy, Último Dragón b Villano III, Villano IV, Villano V

Odd sounding show – it reads as if either the commissioners want to enforce their powers on smaller shows, or there was just strangess. The Cocos came out for their match wearing their masks, and the comissioner demanded them to take off their masks (and they did.) Villano III wore his mask out for his match, and the same thing happened. I dunno. Dandy and Villano III ran in after the third match to demand to be in the next maestro match, and this led to a classic style tournament being announced for a future show.

Next Week’s Cards

CMLL (TUE) 05/15 Arena Coliseo
1) Pequeno Olimpico & Tzuki vs Fire & Sombrita
2) Danger, Sombra de Plata, Trueno vs Arkangel, Dr. X, Jeque
3) Fabian el Gitano, Ogun, Valiente vs Hijo de Pierroth, Ohara, Okumura
4) Felino, Heavy Metal, Negro Casas vs Misterioso II, Texano Jr., Virus
5) Dos Caras Jr., Lizmark Jr., Marco Corelone vs Averno, Black Warrior, Mephisto

I’m good with this not being taped. This is the first time NJPW tag partners Negro and Texano will oppose each other.

CMLL (FRI) 05/18 Arena Mexico
1) Mini Fantasy & Ultimo Dragonicto vs Pequeno Violencia & Pierrothito
2) Hiroka, Mima Shimoda, Princesa Sugeith vs Dark Angel, Diana la Cazadora, Marcela
3) Minoru, Takayama, Terrible vs Dos Caras Jr., Marco Corelone, Ultimo Dragon
4) Hijo de Perro Aguayo vs Negro Casas, Felino, Tarzan Boy, Mephisto, Maximo, Alex Koslov, Stuka Jr., Volador Jr., Mascara Purpura [LdP, ciber]
5) Dr. Wagner vs Atlantis

I don’t like the tecnicos chances in the tercera. We’ll break down the Cibernetico later in the week, but I will note here that I expect Mistico to get pulled from the 05/25 cibernetico, much like Atlantis was last year.

CMLL (SUN) 05/20 Arena Coliseo
1) Astro Boy & Sensei vs Polvora & Vaquero
2) Tigre Blanco, Tigre Metalico, Tony Rivera vs Dr. X, Hooligan, Nitro
3) Brillante, Mascara Purpura, Mictlan vs Euforia, Nosferatu, Virus
4) Felino, La Mascara, Maximo vs Ephesto, Hijo de Pierroth, Pierroth
5) Atlantis, Olimpico, Ultimo Guerrero vs Hirooki Goto, Minoru, Takayama

Whichever show gets stuck with the semimain is the loser for sure. Note Virus teaming up with his new boys, and I believe it was Robert who noted it’s Euforia and Brillante should’ve worked previously, having started in the same area.

TV Round Up

AAA airings were as expected.

CMLL Main
05/06: Dark Angel, India Sioux, Sahori b Hiroka, Princesa Sujei, Rosa Negra
05/11: Averno, Black Warrior, Mephisto b Felino, Heavy Metal, Negro Casas
05/11: Gran Prix

CAN52
05/04: Euforia, Nosferatu, Satánico b La Máscara, Mictlán, Virus
05/06: Dr. Wagner Jr., Marco Corelone, Negro Casas b Atlantis, Olímpico, Tarzan Boy

FSE
05/06: Euforia, Nosferatu, Satánico b Felino, Mictlán, Tony Rivera
05/06: Alex Koslov, Neutrón (though the show open lists Maximo), Último Dragón b Mephisto, Misterioso II, Virus

Feature for both shows was various bits from the Lucha Libre Expo, but FSE started with a Warrior clip and GdR started with Mistico talking about his injury. Haven’t had a chance to watch any of the shows indepth yet.

Accion

CMLL: Gran Prix highlights.

AAA: Sect vs Mexican Powers from Oaxaca

IWRG’s site is still down.

04/28: Mexico, lineups, GdR

CMLL (FRI) 04/27 Arena Mexico [ova, ESTO, Super Luchas]
1) Brillante, Stuka Jr., Valiente b Artillero, Polvora, Super Comando
2) Marcela & Princesa Sujei b Diana la Cazadora and India Sioux and Sahori and Luna Magica and Princesa Blanca and Atenea and Amapola and La Nazi and Rosa Negra and Medussa and Diosa Maya and Seductora [sf, ciber, final 2 advance, MEX WOMEN]
3) Damian 666, Hijo del Perro Aguayo, Terrible b Dr. Wagner Jr., Mistico, Sagrado
4) Ultimo Guerrero b Shocker

Ultimo snuck in a foul. His evil monkey was there, which means it was someone other than Tzuki this time. Super Luchas says it was a slightly different costume this time. CMLL is looking for a better name for Ultimito de la Atlantida, which is fine by me.

Perro pinned Mistico clean again, and they pushed voting for him on his reality show. Others from the show were there to root him on.

Order of elimination for the women’s match (all via Super Luchas)
1) Diosa Maya (by Luna Magica)
2) Atenea (La Seductora)
3) La Seductora (India Sioux)
4) Luna Magica (Medusa)
5/6) La Nazi & Princesa Blanca (usual double pin)
7) Medusa (Diana)
8) India Sioux (Amapola)
9) Rosa Negra (Marcela)
10) Sahori (Sujei)
11) Diana (Amapola)
12) Amapola (Marcela)

India was bleeding during the match. Total match time is 24:27. That’s long.

Stuka filled in for Danger. Brillante gets a good review by ESTO.

CMLL (TUE) 05/01 Arena Coliseo
1) Espiritu Maligno & Karissma vs Vaquero & Zayco
2) Bracito de Oro & Electrico vs Fire & Sombrita
3) Brillante, Leono, Starman vs Goto, Ohara, Okumura
4) Maximo, Metro II, Ogun vs Ephesto, Texano Jr., Virus
5) Blue Panther, Shocker, Volador Jr. vs Misterioso II, Sangre Azteca, Ultimo Guerrero
6) Alex Koslov vs Atlantis [NWA LH]

Virus and Texano are wasting no time moving to the rudo side.

CMLL (FRI) 05/04 Arena Mexico
1) Astro Boy & Stuka Jr. vs Artillero & Super Comando
2) Euforia, Nosferatu, Satanico vs La Mascara, Mictlan, Virus
3) Averno, Ephesto, Mephisto vs Heavy Metal, Sagrado, Ultimo Dragon
4) Alex Koslov, Marco Corelone, Rey Bucanero vs Atlantis, Sangre Azteca, Ultimo Guerrero
5) Marcela vs Princesa Sujei [MEX WOMEN]
6) Dr. Wagner Jr., Mistico, Negro Casas vs Hector Garza, Hijo del Perro Aguayo, Mr. Aguila

Looks like we got a Trios title match coming up.

CMLL (SUN) 05/06 Arena Coliseo
1) Bracito de Oro & Tzuki vs Mini Halloween & Mr. Aguilita
2) Dark Angel, India Sioux, Sahori vs Hiroka, Princesa Sujei, Rosa Negra
3) Felino, Mictlan, Tony Rivera vs Euforia, Nosferatu, Satanico
4) Alex Koslov, Maximo, Ultimo Dragon vs Mephisto, Misterioso II, Virus
5) Dr. Wagner Jr., Negro Casas, Shocker vs Atlantis, Olimpico, Tarzan Boy

If Virus as a rudo means he’s working semimains, I’m all for it.

TORYUMON GYM (SUN) 05/13 Arena Mexico
1) Bryan Lee & Toshiya Matsuzaki vs Arkangel de la Muerte & Daisuke Hanaoka
2) Hiroka & Mima Shimoda vs India Sioux & Marcela
3) Dr. Karonte Sr. & Negro Navarro vs Amigo Suzuki & Hijo del Fantasma and Bino Gambino & Joe Potter
4) Brazo de Oro, Brazo de Platino, Passion Hasegawa vs Casanova Italiano, Hiromi Horiguchi, Okumura
5) Hajime Ohara vs La Mascara [NWA WELTER]
6) Hirooki Goto & Jushin Lyger vs Dr. Wagner Jr. & Negro Casas
7) Kazuchika Okada, Mil Mascaras, Mistico, Ultimo Dragon vs Minoru Suzuki, SUWA, Ultimo Guerrero, Yoshihiro Takayma

As always, the first comment I make upon seeing a Toryumon Mexico card is “…the HECK?” That is one strange main event. I don’t even know where to begin.

The semimain tag should be interesting. This ought to mean he (and maybe Takayama) is working Friday and Sunday as well. Remember about 4 years ago when we were promised Lyger was coming to Mexico soon? Time moves slower in Mexico!

I guess the Fantasmas lost the coin toss to get the title shot this time.

Should I know who Casanova Italiano is? Milano Collection AT, perhaps? What’s the deal with faux-Italians in the greater Toryumon universo, anyway?

The third team in the third match are the UWA Canada guys, I do believe.

What happened to Onita? Not that I care.

CMLL GdR #75 has
04/20 Mexico: Euforia, Nosfearatu, Satanico b Leono, Valiente, Virus
04/22 Coliseo: Lizmark Jr., Mistico, Rey Bucanero b Atlantis, Black Warrior, Eclipse

04/21: Mexico, photographers banned again, lineups, TV

CMLL (FRI) 04/20 Arena Mexico [ovaciones, ESTO, CMLL]
1) Caligula & Messala b Danger & Moltov
2) Euforia, Nosfearatu, Satanico b Leono, Valiente, Virus
3) Alex Koslov, Blue Panther, Ultimo Dragon b Misterioso II, Sangre Azteca, Tarzan Boy
4) Mistico, Negro Casas, Sagrado b Averno, Ephesto, Mephisto
5) Atlantis, Olimpico, Ultimo Guerrero b Marco Corleone, Rey Bucanero, Shocker

Before the main event, Ultimo brought a big box to the ring. He was apologetic for his attempted murder of KeMonito last week, so this was a present for the blue monkey. Inside the package – a mini Guerrero which beat up KeMonito! The official name for the guy is “Ultimonito de la Atlántida”, but that’s waaaaay too long. Feel free to tell me how they’re ripping off Guapos VIP now.

And then they had a match and Ultimo fouled Shocker and got the pin. The Ultimo/Shocker exchanges were said to be the best part.

Guess how the semimain ended. Yes.

Tarzan Boy hurt his hand in the tercera. What body part has Tarzan Boy not hurt at this point?

Euforia and Nosfearatu were said to look good, and Satanico’s postmatch comments makes it sound like this may be a regular trio.

Outside the ring, and mini madness, the big story was CMLL once again kicking out all non-CMLL affiliated photographers from ringside (and threatening to eject them from the building if they raised a fuss.) The first time this happened, it was said to be only a PPV thing, but obviously this isn’t the case here, and the affected magazines are talking boycott. ESTO demands equal access for all who cover CMLL.

(ESTO) On Monday and Tuesday Universidad Iberoamericana will be hosting lucha libre panel discussions, talking about the origin of lucha libre, the development, and the present day.

Monday 11-1: Mil Mascaras, Felino, Stuka Jr.
Monday 1-3: “AAA VP” Dorian Pena, El Fantasma, Pierroth, Cibernetico
Tuesday 11-1: Dr. Morales, Mascara Sagrada, Arturo Rivera, Veneno
Tuesday 1-3: Mauricio Medina (CMLL producer), Julian Garcia, Fernado Alvarez (editors), Rosalio Vera (photographer)

This sounds like it’d be quite good.

The VIP show for today has been postponed for a month.

Cards for next week:

CMLL (TUE) 04/24 Arena Coliseo Lineup
1) Rayo Tapatio I, Rayo Tapatio II vs Messala, Caligula
2) Stuka Jr., Tony Rivera, Brillante vs Super Comando, Artillero, Hooligan
3) Satanico, Felino, Mictlan vs Nosferatu, Euforia, Loco Max
4) Virus, Maximo, Texano Jr. vs Okumura, Ohara, Goto
5) Shocker, Negro Casas, Alex Koslov vs Atlantis, Ultimo Guerrero, Tarzan Boy

Or maybe that trio isn’t sticking together. Never mind.

CMLL (FRI) 04/27 Arena Mexico Lineup
1) Valiente, Danger, Brillante vs Super Comando, Artillero, Polvora
2) Diana la Cazadora vs Marcela vs India Sioux vs Sahori vs Luna Magica vs Princesa Blanca vs Atenea vs Amapola vs La Nazi vs Princesa Sujei vs Rosa Negra vs Medussa vs Diosa Maya vs Seductora [sf, ciber, final 2 advance, MEX WOMEN]
3) Mistico, Dr. Wagner Jr., Sagrado vs Hijo del Perro Aguayo, Damian 666, Terrible
4) Shocker vs Ultimo Guerrero

Putting Shocker with Ultimo is fine way to see if he still go. He’s seemed better the last few weeks.

I had presumed the Mexican Women’s Championship would be settled between two selected people and on Arena Coliseo, because after all, it’s only a National title that’s probably headed to a women not on the top tier (Lady Apache, Dark Angel, Hiroka, and Mima Shimoda all can’t be involved, and they get pushed the strongest.) Instead, they’re following the same formula as for when they decided the CMLL Women’s Championship – a cibernetico with the final two facing off next week.

Atenea wrestled a few times in Arena Coliseo Guadalajara, got written about in Box Y Lucha, and then fell off the radar. (Her rival Silueta didn’t make the cut unless she’s got a new name. One person dropping out of a two person division can kinda end the matches, so maybe that’s what happened.) Diosa Maya was working undercards of Martha Villalobos’ AAA cards last year, but last turned up working a CMLL spot show in February. Seductora is a Mexico State indy wrestler who’s worked spot shows for CMLL and IWRG, even appearing on their TV once when they weren’t in Arena Naucalpan.

CMLL (SUN) 04/29 Arena Mexico Lineup
1) Sombra de Plata, Super Nova vs Apocalipsis, Ramstein
2) Tsuki, Mini Olimpico, Shockercito vs Mini Halloween, Mini Damian 666, Mini Mr. Aguila
3) Dos Caras Jr., Heavy Metal, Mascara Sagrada vs Universo 2000, Mascara 2000, Sangre Azteca
4) Dr. Wagner Jr., Marco Corelone, Alex Koslov vs Atlantis, Ultimo Guerrero, Olimpico

Hmmm. Only 4 matches – and no Mistico and Perro for Kid’s Day. Something’s up. Either that or the Mexican Trios match.

GdR (CAN52) has
04/15 Coliseo: Damián 666, Halloween, Mr. Águila b Máximo, Sagrado, Texano Jr.
04/15 Coliseo: Lizmark Jr., Místico, Rey Bucanero DQ Atlantis, Black Warrior, Último Guerrero

04/14: Mexico, AAA in the US

CMLL (FRI) 04/13 Arena Mexico [ova, ocampo]
1) Shockercito & Tzuki b Fire & Mr. Aguilita
2) Hiroka, Mima Shimoda, Princesa Sujei b Dark Angel, Luna Magica, Sahori
3) Dos Caras Jr., Lizmark Jr., Sagrado b Sangre Azteca, Tarzan Boy, Universo 2000
4) Marco Corelone, Rey Bucanero, Shocker DQ Atlantis, Olímpico, Último Guerrero
5) Místico & Negro Casas b el Hijo del Perro Aguayo & Mr. Águila [CMLL TAG]

Perro had Mistico pinned in the third fall after a low blow, but no ref was there to count. Mistico rallied back to win and keep the titles. Sixth defense, and as of today, they’ve held these belts for a year. These two had fought earlier in the evening for something airing on another TV show, and Ocampo says Mistico broke Perro’s nose during that bit. This main event drew the best house of the year, imagine that.

Ovaciones says Marco pulled Ultimo’s mask in the semimain, while Ocampo says Ultimo pulled it himself and Marco got blamed.

Sagrado replayed Rayo in the tercera.

Women’s match is three falls, and that seems to be the new way of things. Ocampo notes that Dark Angel’s parents were in the crowd.

Check out Luchalibreusa – it says the Warped Tour (summer concerts – their site is down as I write this, so use wiki instead) will include AAA wrestlers, but gives absolutely no more details besides that. So this could mean anything from matches at every show to something when they run thru Texas. It’s really too unspecific to spend much time speculating, but I think it’s gonna have to be spot freaks, and it’s going to end up having Foreign Legion/Hell Brothers on top (except, how do you have worthwhile guys in the US when you need them in Mexico for spot shows?)

(link via luchalibrelive on DVDVR)

Rosendo “El Acapulco” Genchi, an original AAA referee, has passed away. (Ovaciones)

The Tapatia Awards should be (auto)posted around 7 PM CST today, so check back for them.

04/07: Mexico, Lineups, GdR

CMLL (FRI) 04/06 Arena Mexico [ova, esto]
1) Super Nova & Tony Rivera b Apocalipsis & Ramstein
2) Hirooki Goto, Ohara, Shigeo Okumura b Felino, Máximo, Valiente
3) Alex Koslov, Dr. Wagner Jr., Rayo de Jalisco Jr. b Atlantis, Sangre Azteca, Tarzan Boy
4) Blue Demon Jr., el Hijo del Perro Aguayo, Mr. Águila b Marco Corelone, Místico, Sagrado
5) Último Guerrero b Héctor Garza

ESTO claims this show had a larger attendance and was of better quality than than last week’s PPV. However, they also mention that a noticeable amount of fans left after the semimain. ESTO’s theory is the show was so good to that point, fans were satisfied and didn’t need another match. I think the show is over for a lot of folks once Mistico wrestles. Ovaciones doesn’t mention any of this.

Rudos won the semimain, with Perro challenging for a tag team title shot (!) versus Mistico and Negro next week, which is signed. Perro must’ve attacked Mistico some more, because Ultimo came out early to attack Perro, and we’re supposed to wonder if maybe Mistico and Ultimo are secretly allied now. In the main event, Ultimo pinned Hector using the ropes, though I’ve seen some mention Hector was strechered out.

Flash was supposed to work the opener as his return from injury, but was replaced by Tony. Perhaps he’s not all the way back yet?

Lineups…

CMLL (TUE) 04/10 Arena Coliseo Lineup
1) Electrico, Celestial vs Pierrothito, Mini Violencia
2) Valiente, Super Nova, Trueno vs Hooligan, Apocalipsis, Ramstein
3) Tony Rivera, Satanico, Metro vs Arkangel, Euforia, Nosferatu
4) Maximo, Virus, Texano Jr. vs Eclipse, Ephesto, Okumura
5) Rey Bucanero, Heavy Metal, Alex Koslov vs Atlantis, Olimpico, Sangre Azteca

It seems like they’re giving Euforia and Nosferatu time to get used to their new gimmicks before putting them on TV, which is good.

CMLL (FRI) 04/13 Arena Mexico Lineup
1) Tsuki, Shockercito vs Fire, Mini Mr. Aguila
2) Dark Angel, Sahori, Luna Magica vs Hiroka, Princesa Sujei, Mima Shimoda
3) Rayo de Jalisco Jr., Dos Caras Jr., Lizmark Jr. vs Universo 2000, Tarzan Boy, Sangre Azteca
4) Marco Corelone, Shocker, Rey Bucanero vs Atlantis, Ultimo Guerrero, Olimpico
5) Mistico, Negro Casas vs Perro Aguayo Jr., Mr. Aguila [CMLL TAG]

That third match is so full of hate. I could swear CMLL themselves told me Lizmark turned rudo, and he’s a tecnico yet again. Worse still is the resumption of Rayo/Universo.

I’m thinking no title change.

CMLL (SUN) 04/15 Arena Coliseo Lineup
1) Tigre Blanco, Tiger Metalico, Tony Rivera vs Mr. Mexico, Arkangel, Dr. X
2) La Mascara, Leono, Mictlan vs Mephisto, Ephesto, Misterioso II
3) Sagrado, Maximo, Texano Jr. vs Damian 666, Halloween, Mr. Aguila
4) Mistico, Rey Bucanero, Lizmark Jr. vs Atlantis, Black Warrior, Ultimo Guerrero

Four matches announced, no Jeque/Stuka – looks like the mask match is going down here. Note the (for the moment) tercera has the Mexico Trios champs teaming up for the first time in a while, against a logical team to challenge them.
