Palumbo piledrived Ultimo in the third fall. Yes, this feud indeed must go on!

Palumbo and Stamboli were only in for the weekend, but the way they were used, I kinda figure they’ll be back next time they run a Toryumon Mexico show.

NASCAR’s Busch race in Mexico City this past weekend was disdainfully refered to as lucha libre on wheels, for some rudo driving tactics, by a writer from NOTIMEX (Mexico AP, so it shows up all over.)

Lineup higlights:
– AAA has Rey de Reyes on 03/10. The main event – with guest appearances by TNA’s Samoa Joe and Ron Killings (who teams with Konnan which goes counter to their TNA stuff but whatever) is a four way trios match and I guess whoever ends up with the winning pinfall wins the crown, not that it matters much. Haven’t heard who the traitor was from the last taping yet, but note the Box Y Lucha version of the card has Electro Shock on the rudo side AND Zorro taking Alan Stone’s place versus Intocable. (I should’ve watched Accion! duh.)
– In intersting singles matchees, Suicida faces Cerebro Negro on Thursday’s IWRG card, and Dos Caras Jr. and Ultimo Guerrero rematch from last year’s series, this time in Guadalajara.
– Looks like we’ll get Wagner/Mistico vs Perro/Garza on GdR in two weeks
– CHRIS HERO VS BATMAN! The World’s Finest Segunda On This Week’s Tuesday Pachuca Show. Dr. Wagner’s partner on that show is actually listed as “Hermano de Dr. Wagner”, and I’ll just assume it’s not one we haven’t seen in the ring before. THAT’d be news.
