Raul Cruz has an updated lineup. Yay Raul.

ELL-MEX (SUN) 02/24 Congress Chicago Lineup
1) Siulenta Azul vs ?
2) Lupillo & Mini Charlie Manson vs Guerrerito del Futuro & Tyme Page
3) SWAT Kat vs Coco Negro [no holds barred]
4) Pantera, Atomo, Principe Unlimted vs Mascara de Jade, Lucifer, ??
5) Mil Mascaras & Mascara Sagrada vs Villano III & Rey Misterio Sr.

Doors open at 6.

Felino is off, due to a Japan tour – that’s the same day as the scheduled NJPW Bangladesh shows and there was some talk about CMLL guys working on those shows, but those shows may be off now, so – I dunno. Could mean any number of things.

The SWAT Kat/Coco Negro follows up the same match from months ago, right? And sorta of the trios from the last run. I kinda would have to be really bored and/or in the city already to go to show. The semimain could be real fun with those tecnicos and other rudos, but I don’t know if it’s a good combo, and if you’re looking for a exciting match, you shouldn’t look at the main event.

Next Congress Show

According to luchafan on CPW (worthwhile read just for the debate about Pantera – maybe it’s one of the Tigres we’re confused with here?), the next Congress show is scheduled for 02/24. I dare not guess what time the show might start – their website hasn’t updated with it yet.

Main is still Mil Mascaras, Mascara Sagrada, Felino vs Pantera, Villano III, Rey Mysterio Sr. (or other some combination). It’s a Friday night and I’m not completely ruling out going because of it, but this’ll be the Mil show (and be billed as “Mil’s last trip to Chicago!”), and last time I saw Mil (in Aurora), he was wrestling exactly how you’d expect a 60+ year old luchador who only needs to live off his name would wrestle. Felino can go and did go when I saw him in Aurora and I think there could be some fun sequences here, but it’s not enough to get me going.

I think the show will draw pretty good, because it’s Mil first show in Congress (I think – nagging suspicion I’m forgetting something) and he’s still a Name, but because I’m a fan of what I’m a fan of, I’d be much more hyped about any random combination of six CMLL undercarders than this.

(this is post 4 on the day, by the way. We may hit six or seven!)
