Believe it or not, there’s a lucha surplus in Chicago; there are enough shows, I may not actually go to ’em all. 3 more January lucha shows were announced today, to go with the 2 ones later in the month. (Hence, new category.) I’ve gone over the OELL ones last month, but I’m gonna put the whole calendar here to keep it straight.
(thanks to ChicagoWrestling.com)
01/08 – ELL-MEX, Congress Theater, Chicago (7:30 bell)
(where there’s NO PLACE TO PARK, but I think I saw a Blue line stop nearby? So maybe I’ll take that next time.)
$10 adults, $5 kids. No VIP seats this time, or they’re all the same price regardless. I wonder if that might have to do with no Outside guys on the card; it’s all the OMLL talent.
1) TBA

I’m planning on going 01/22 and 01/30 show at least. I’m tempted to go to the 01/29, and the other ones depends on what comes together. Also, jtron may make some nice change if he can tape some of these.
