Tonight’s the last AAA taping of the year.

AAA TV (FRI) 12/15 Plaza de Toros de Chilpancingo
1) Mascarita Divina, Mascarita Sagrada AAA, Octagoncito vs Mini Abismo Negro, Mini Charly Manson, Mini Chessman
2) Rey Cometa & Super Fly vs El Angel & Laredo Kid and Alliens & El Apache and May Flowers & Pimpinela [AAA TAG, qf, torneo]
3) Crazy Boy, Joe Lider, Juventud Guerrera vs Ishimori, Marafuji, Oriental
4) ?, Abismo Negro, Antifaz, Histeria vs Cuervo, Espiritu, Ozz, Scoria
5) Gronda II, La Parka Jr., Octagon vs Charly Manson, Chessman, Cibernetico

No word on the newest Viper. It’s probably either them remembering Kamoa Jr. is in the group or a guy who’s around but not part of a group they’re pushing being plugged in, like when Antifaz joined the Vipers or Hator joined the Guapos. All the ex-Vatos Locos guys are floating around aimlessly at this point, so maybe a Nygma or a Picudo (with the twist that Espiritu is so twisted by Muerte, he’s now okay fighting them).

To follow up Tim’s question, this is the first taping in quite a while with no Konnan/TNA involvement listed. I’ve rethought this main event since it was first announced; the Hell Brothers are always going to end up being rudos when they’re against the likes of Octagon and La Parka, because that’s just how their characters work together, but I think this match is leading to them forming a united front against the Sect. I mean, there’s gotta be some run-ins, so why not Muerte/Dark Family running into attack both teams, leading them to work together and what not.

Or they could just be killing the tecnicos off for good and having the Hell Brothers take their spots.

AAA’s also updated their news section
– Intocable’s putting out a calender; he says it’s for the whole family, but I’m thinking the whole family isn’t buying it (60 pesos, on sale soon!)
– AAA had an end of the year mass/party/dinner on Monday. They had a futbol game as well: rudos 6, tecnicos 3. They story also mentions they had four pinatas – two of Octagon and one of El Elegido. What of the other one?

12/15: Guadalajara, Neza

Ovaciones has interviews with the major participants on tonight’s Arena Mexico show. Corelone is quoted (which I hope means he’s actually in the country) saying this will be his revenge for that chairshot. Universo feels Corelone and Kenzo’s hair will be a Christmas present. Kenzo vows victory in five minutes! In a Notimex article, Kenzo also says Universo is one of the worst wrestlers in the world. The trios teams talk as well, but don’t say anything.

Only Universo and Kenzo showed up for the press confrence signing. Wouldn’t it be funny if, say, Marco Corelone didn’t show for the hair match on Friday? Maybe he just couldn’t get back from Italy in time.

6) Rayo de Jalisco vs Konnan Big [FILL HEAVY, hair]

Yea, Konnan Big isn’t losing his hair. Aren’t titles great? This thread also remided me what FILL stands for (Federacion Internacional de Lucha Libre)

The wrestlers and referees in Zocalo are trying to form a union.

In Milenio, Sandro Cohen writes about writing the intro to the Lucha Loco book.

AAA on GALA: 2pm Saturday on Saturday. Scorpio Jr. and Super Porky have a singles matches.

GdR: Back on the normal schedule. I’m thinking Henrik gets his Metro match this week. And maybe the confused finish.

FSE: Something’s up with fse.tv, but there are other ways to the site thru foxsports.com. Anyway, the Friday late night airings back for a week, and the new episode – Sangre and his little brother? – is early Monday morning.

CMLL in Mexico has the PPV, so I’m thinking the TV show will be the top 3 matches from the last show. AAA should be at GdT – maybe they’ll be splitting it up over two shows? They’ve been doing that with the big shows. Perhaps they’ll use some of the filler time to explain their wacky tournament.
