Slow day.
CMLL (FRI) 11/11 Arena Mexico Lineup [SuperLucha]
1) Leono & StarMAN vs Ramstein & Super Comando
2) Diana la Cazadora & India Sioux vs Princesa Sujei & La Nazi
3) Ultimo Dragon, Dos Caras Jr., Mr. Niebla vs Tarzan Boy, Kenzo Suzuki, Gedo
4) Universo 2000, Ultimo Guerrero, Pierroth vs Hijo del Perro Aguayo, Damian, Halloween
5) Dr. Wagner Jr., Mistico, La Mascara vs Rey Bucanero, Averno, Mephisto
6) Hijo del Santo vs Atlantis [LdP Final]
Ovaciones has two articles, but nothing much of news. Atlantis thinks he’s going to win. So do I. So does everyone. Kenzo’s off to Europe after this show, so we should be safe. I wonder if maybe I’ve had it in the wrong order – perhaps Kenzo was going to train at Ultimo Dragon Gym, and Dragon got him an Arena Mexico booking while he was here? I like the idea of Kenzo trying to better himself.
The non-preview article is a quick one with Averno & Mephisto about their tag team title reign; they’d like to defend the titles more often, but can’t find many worth tag teams. Mephisto says he’s defended the CMLL Welterweight Title seven times; I’ll give a gold star to anyone who can find all seven defenses.
Speaking of titles, I’ve been working on some of them in the luchaWiki this past week. Feel free to drop by, check things out, and see if I do the CMLL Welterweight next.
I’ll follow up on the awards discussion from last Friday later today. Maybe after lunch.
Here’s a little odd piece of info that nobody could have expected…
Just got done watching a new IWRG TV episode and shockingly THIS SHOW aired on TV:
IWRG (FRI) 10/07 Chimaluacan Lineup [superlucha]
The show from Arena Naucalpan the night before wasn’t taped I guess so they shot this show instead and had no commentary. My copy was JIP at the Virus, Segura, Misterioso II vs Veneno, Averno, Mephisto match. Main event was my first chance to see the new Pierroth II(he sucks worse than the original…) and Head Hunter I back in action.
So see Henrik, you never know which random show you might get to see one day!

Averno & Mephisto would have more challengers if they weren’t ducking Tigre Blanco & Tigre Metallico!
