Hi. Was busy. You were saved from me hyperventalting over Rey getting a shot the CMLL Heavyweight Title.
It’s still the down period. CMLL announced that their first show back in Arena Mexico will be 01/23. Till then, they’re still just running tapings at Coliseo on Wednesday on Friday.
Wednesday’s headlined by a Niebla/Tarzan/Warrior vs Pierroth/Lizmark/Emilio relevos incredible match, and a tag team tournament underneath. Friday’s main is Parka/Atlantis/Lizmark vs GdI, with another Satanico vs ex-Infernales encounter on the undercard.
No new word on a potential return by Perro Aguayo Sr. – Meltzer figures he’ll be back to headline Arena Mexico, but they’ve downplayed his run-in since. I hope it was just a “look! these Arena Coliseo shows really are worth showing up for!” thing, but I can’t really delude myself that much.
Meltzer also says that Bobby Quance, late of the Havana Pitbulls and due to work some dates for MLW, is considering going in to armed forces once he’s fufilled his wrestling commitments.
Lucha Times has been updated through the last weekends Arena Coliseo show; I figure that’s where I really should be updating, anyway. So now you know what’s on in March, until they change their minds.
You’ll notice the Vuelta show’s schedule is no longer listed – they’ve been skipping around a bit (last two weeks: 86, 88), and if the only way I can figure out which show’s on is watching the first five minutes and scanning at the CMLL Recap Index then it really serves no purpose. Plus, updating it was a pain with the two schedules merged like that. If they get back to a consistent schedule, I’ll add it back.
The address up there has slightly changed. Not what I wanted, but it may fix a couple problems I was getting around to.
Recaps for 11/29 (pass – usual clipped to death Ciber) and 12/06 (good but not great title match) have been posted. 12/13 by Thursday night, I hope.
