04/23: Mistico moves one step closer to holding every belt in the world, Sewage Man news

1) Polvora & Vaquero b Rayo Tapatio I & Rayo Tapatio II
2) Brillante, Tiger Metalico, Tigre Blanco b Apocalipsis, Dr. X, Hooligan

Mistico pulled the ol’ “mask underneath my mask” trick on Black Warrior, so Mistico didn’t drop to cover his face and instead beat Warrior for the win. Mistico wants a shot at Warrior’s NWA Middleweight Championship, and that will indeed be the main event of next week’s Kids Day show. Perros will also be getting a title shot (two straight non-title wins over the champs), so the new card looks something like this:

CMLL (SUN) 04/29 Arena Mexico
1) Sombra de Plata & Super Nova vs Apocalipsis & Ramstein
2) Mini Olimpico, Shockercito, Tsuki vs Mini Damian 666, Mini Halloween, Mini Mr. Aguila
3) Dos Caras Jr., Heavy Metal, Mascara Sagrada vs Mascara 2000, Sangre Azteca, Universo 2000
4) Damian 666, Halloween, Mr. Aguila vs Maximo, Sagrado, Texano Jr. [MEX TRIOS]
5) Alex Koslov, Dr. Wagner Jr., Marco Corelone vs Atlantis, Olimpico, Ultimo Guerrero
6) Mistico vs Black Warrior [NWA MIDDLE]

Mistico’s going to be a four belt champion come Sunday, ain’t he? The odds are heavily stacked in his favor – they can’t have Mistico lose on Kids Day two years in a row, without running a major angle. He’d be champ of four different divisions – Welter, Super Welter (IWRG), Middle, Tag – so I don’t think they’re going to make my dreams come true and unify some of these belts (and knock ’em of existence).

Why not put every belt on Mistico? I’m all for it. The rudos will always be able to punk him out before matches, because how can you walk when carrying all those titles?

I was figuring no title change on this Mexican Trios program before we knew Mistico was in the main event. Since they can send the fans home happy with that, I’m leaning towards the Perros picking up the belts here (making Aguila a double trios champ.)

Box Y Lucha 2815 wonders if Mistico will appear without his mask in his upcoming soap opera. (I’m gonna say NO)
Super Luchas #209 highlights the Hell Brothers and the newest Nuevos Infernales.

In San Diego, EarthFair 2007 festivites included lucha libre matches, including a match between Sewage Man and Agua Limpia. I don’t like the rudos chances on Kids Day, I don’t like Sewage Man’s chances on Earth Day.
