Lucha Times

Saturday: No daytime airing – Galavision is premering a couple of shows on the same week they have a Mexico double header, so they’re bouncing things around a bit and maybe just knocking AAA off for a week? – and SOP is to air a random rerun in the late night slot. So who knows here.

Sunday: Should be Rey de Reyes Pt1.

GdR: Tag title setup; I wonder if they built Mep/Rey or if they didn’t figure that out til Tuesday?

Fox Sports Espanol starts next week.

Preliminarly listings for next week have Gala returning, but at a 3PM Eastern slot. I’d think that’d cause them to be moved more often for futbol.

CMLL (TUE) 08/01 Arena Coliseo Results [cmllmagazine]
1) Espiritu, Karisma b Soberano Jr., Vaquero
2) Jeque, Polvora, Zayco b Kronos, Leono, Starman
Starman was carried out, and the rudos took advantage of the numbers.
3) Mascara Purpura, Psicodelico Jr., Stuka Jr. b Apocalipsis, Canek Jr., Ramstein
4) Damian 666, Emilio Charles Jr., Hijo de Pierroth b Lizmark, Metro II, Volador
5) Atlantis, Averno, Mephisto b Blue Panther, Heavy Metal, Rey Bucanero
Focus was on Mephisto vs Bucanero here, with Mep sneaking in a low blow for the win. These two – both weight division champions – will face off in a non-title match next week.

Quick, name the title Mephisto has without looking it up. It took me a second to recall too.

CMLL (TUE) 08/01 Domo de la Feria de Leon Results
3) Mascara Ano 2000, Cien Caras Jr., Emilo Chalres b Rey Bucnaero, Negro Casas, Heavy Metal
Rudos won 2-0 and busted Rey open; he challenged Mascara Ano to a hair match after.
4) Mistico, LA Park, Grond XXX b Universo 2000, Olimpico, Black Warrior

Notes from the 07/28 AAA tapings (previous to the Sect split)
1) Cuervo, Espiritu, Ozz, Scoria b Laredo Kid, Nemesis AAA, Rey Cometa, Super Fly
Espiritu pulled Rey Cometa’s mask and rolled him up for the win
2) Centauro, Estrellita, Mascarita Sagrada, Pimpinela Escarlata b Hator, May Flowers, Mini Abismo Negro, Tiffany
Rudos lost the second match when Hator fouled the debuting Centauro
3) Alan, Billy Boy, Decnis DQ Crazy Boy, Juventued Guerrera, Psicosis II
Turned into an ‘extreme’ match, and ended in a DQ. Decnis took a bump onto chairs and neon light bulbs post match, which sounds exceptionally dumb
4) Alan Stone, Scorpio Jr., Shocker DQ Elegido, Oriental, Zorro
Estrellita got involved, pretending to want to be friends with Shocker and un-shockingly turning on him; Zorro lost his mind again and started caning everyone for the loss.
5) Abismo Negro, Electro Shock, Muerte Cibernetica b Gronda II, La Parka Jr., Super Porky
Gronda II started the match but was taken to the back due to attacks by the rudos during the match and still being hurt from the martiente from the last taping. He did return later for the comeback. Porky was busted open during the match as well.

IWRG (SUN) 07/30 Arena Naucalpan Results
1) Rey Estruendo b Francotirador
2) Aguila Misteriosa, Halcon Salvaje b Lexus, Ultra Mega
3) Avisman, Black Jaguar, Carta Brava Jr. b Ave Fenix, Puma, Star Boy
Avisman’s now a rudo.
4) Black Terry, Cerebro Negro, Cyborg DQ Fantasma Jr., Suicida, Tony Rivera
5) Panterita b Fantasma de la Ópera [IWRG IC WELTER]
New champ; Panterita’s won a hair match and a title match on back to back Sundays. Fantasma beat him up post match and demanded a rematch.

By amazing coincidence, Panterita vs Fantasma de la Opera in a mask match is Arena Naucalpan’s special Sunday main event. The Arena Neza card has been slightly shuffled

IWRG (SUN) 08/06 Arena Neza Results
1) Sibelius vs Black Stone
2) Ave Fenix, Kid Tiger vs Hermano Muerte II, Hermno Muerte I
3) Rayo Tapatio I, Rayo Tapatio II, Super Yens vs Carta Brava Jr., Puma, Xibalba
4) Mr. Niebla, Negro Casas, Pantera vs Damián 666, Mr. Águila, Veneno
5) Dr. Wagner Jr. vs Perro Aguayo Jr. [UWA HEAVY]

Reads like Misterioso wasn’t available and they got Perro instead and adjusted. Wagner’s retaining the title, though it’d be hilarious if he didn’t (for reasons that have nothing to do with Perro.)

The Fishman themed design of El Martiente‘s forums looks great. They’ve always got the best web designs.

Did I mention Rudopolis updated earlier this week? Well, there you go.
