06/30: Mexico, Coliseo, GdR

ESTO/Purpura’s new gear

CMLL (FRI) 06/29 Arena Mexico EST, Galeon del Mal @ box y lucha, ova]
1) Fabián el Gitano & Metálico b Apocalipsis & Hooligan
2) Dark Angel, Diana La Cazdora, Luna Magica b Amapola, Hiroka, Mima Shimoda
3) Dr. Wagner Jr. & Mascara Purpura b Negro Casas & Stuka Jr. [gran alternativa, qf]
4) La Sombra & Mistico b Heavy Metal & Super Nova [gran alternativa, qf]
5) Dos Caras Jr. & Valiente b Flash & Marco Corelone [gran alternativa, qf]
6) Euforia & Ultimo Guerrero b Super Comando & Villano V [gran alternativa, qf]
7) La Sombra & Mistico b Dr. Wagner Jr. & Mascara Purpura [gran alternativa, sf]
8) Euforia & Ultimo Guerrero b Dos Caras Jr. & Valiente [gran alternativa, sf]
9) La Sombra & Mistico b Euforia & Ultimo Guerrero [gran alternativa, final]
10) Blue Panther DQ Lizmark Jr.

Blue Panther won the first fall clean. The second ended with Garza, Terrible, and Villano V running in, and Lizmark yanking off Panther’s mask again. Panther had to be helped out.

After their semifinal match, Wagner teased a rudo turn and challenged Mistico’s team to a rematch. I would guess this is just random grandstanding.

FWIW, Ultimo Guerrero gave Super Comando the Guerrero Special in their first round match, which meant Euforia was the one to pin Villano V

Metalico hurt his knee in the opener, despite the win.

CMLL (TUE) 07/03 Arena Coliseo
1) Molotov & Trueno vs Messala & Zayco
2) Bam Bam, Bracito de Oro, Celestial vs Mini Halloween, Mini Mr. Aguila, Pequeno Damian
3) Lady Apache, Luna Magica, Marcela vs La Nazi, La Seductora, Rosa Negra
4) Eclipse, Misterioso II, Pierroth vs Felino, Heavy Metal, Leono
5) Dos Caras Jr., Negro Casas, Rey Bucanero vs Damian 666, Mr. Aguila, Terrible

CMLL (FRI) 07/06 Arena Mexico
1) Astro Boy & Sombra de Plata vs Apocalipsis & Ramstein
2) Flash, Mictlan, Super Nova vs Nitro, Nosferatu, Virus
3) Alex Koslov, Felino, Heavy Metal vs Averno, Ephesto, Mephisto
4) Terrible, Villano III, Villano V vs Blue Panther, Dr. Wagner Jr., Sagrado
5) Mistico, Negro Casas, Sombra vs Atlantis, Euforia, Ultimo Guerrero

Probably should’ve seen this one coming – the guy they’re hoping to be their next Mistico is already starting a feud with the guy they’ve positioned as their next Averno.

AAA updated their website with the full cards for 07/01 and 07/06, but no TV tapings past that.

CMLL GdR #83 has
06/22 Mexico: Dark Angel, Lady Apache, Marcela b Hiroka, Mima Shimoda, Princesa Sujei
06/24 Coliseo: Damián 666, Halloween, Mr. Águila b Heavy Metal, Máximo, Sombra
Outside the ring with Texano Jr.

Next Saturday’s FSE lucha libre show is listed as “Dos Caras Jr. vs Universo 2000”, so that should be the episode which has already in Mexico. Beyond that, I don’t know.

No Sunday lineup yet.

Black Warrior has been released from CMLL

This news is originally from Mexician newspaper Diaro Record. It’s been reposted by here (WAGNER_DRIVER @ box y lucha), and also by KrisZ. The newspaper does not have a website.

Box Y Lucha foreshadowed in this week’s magazine, so point for them.

Six no shows are cited – checking my notes, that should be…

06/10 Monclova
06/12 Coliseo DF
06/16 Neza
06/17 Coacalco
06/18 Puebla
06/19 Coliseo DF
06/24 Guadalajara

Which is not 6, but close enough. They did have new lineups with Warrior off the GDL card. It’s really not the number, but the complete disappearing act.

I have no idea if this is a jump to AAA (a confirmed TripleMania card might clarify), or if there’s personal issues going on here. I’m guessing CMLL has not heard from Black Warrior, or has just very much not liked what they’ve heard.

Warrior is a much better position to jump groups since losing his mask. He’d lose his name, but he’d be able to keep his look.

06/29: Mexico preview

ESTO/Valiente not being in this means he’s losing

CMLL (FRI) 06/29 Arena Mexico
1) Fabian el Gitano & Metalico vs Apocalipsis & Hooligan
2) Dark Angel, Diana La Cazadora, Luna Magica vs Amapola, Hiroka, Mima Shimoda
3) Negro Casas & Stuka Jr. vs Dos Caras Jr. & Valiente and Dr. Wagner Jr. & Mascara Purpura and La Sombra & Mistico and Super Comando & Villano V and Flash & Marco Corelone and Euforia & Ultimo Guerrero and Heavy Metal & Super Nova [gran alternativa]
m) Lizmark Jr. vs Blue Panther

Both NotiMex and ESTO run previews based off yesterday’s Heavy Metal press conference. ESTO also has words with the GA particpants and pretends to be interested in the main event. They bring up Blue Panther’s big feud with Love Machine, and this is so not Blue Panther’s big feud with Love Machine. It’s a match.

The WWE Mexico press conference went on without Rey (or anyone from the crew). They hope to do another press conference before the start of the tour, when people might be available.

La Opinion Digital talks to Psicosis II, before he goes off on the Warped Tour. He mentions his father was also a wrestler, which I haven’t heard before.

Isela, one of the CMLL valtes, finished 8th in Miss Bikini of the Universe. She had previous won Miss Bikini Latina.

CMLL (MON) 07/02 Arena Puebla [hugo999]
1) Ares & Toro Bill Jr. vs Mr. Rafaga & Siki Osama Jr.
2) Black Terry, Cerebro Negro, Espiritu Maligno vs Batman, Centella de Oro, the Tiger
3) Felino, Flash, Valiente vs Euforia, Loco Max, Nosferatu
4) Eclipse, Misterioso Ii, Universo 2000 vs Alex Koslov, La Mascara, Marco Corelone
5) Damian 666, Lizmark Jr., Mr. Aguila vs Blue Panther, Dos Caras Jr., Rey Bucanero

06/28 (2): Guadalajara

I meant to post the results, because someone asked…

CMLL (SUN) 06/24 Arena Coliseo Guadalajara [KrisZ]
1) Fraile de la Muerte & Valentin Mayo b Idolo & Magistral
2) Mr. Trueno & Rey Trueno b Azazel & Mach 1
3) Ephesto, Infierno, Malefico b Hijo del Faraon, Magnum, Metálico
4) Metal Blanco b Jeque [hair]
5) Lizmark Jr., Misterioso II, Terrible b La Máscara, Metalico, Sagrado

Metalico replaced Shocker. Lizmark replaced Warrior, and fouled Sagrado for the win.

Cards for this week. As you can see, Jeque appears to be staying on.

2) Azazel & Mach-1 vs Depredador & Guero Loco

06/28: notes

Heavy Metal announced a Heavy Metal lucha libre show, which will feature Heavy Metal and also heavy metal. It’ll be two days of shows, August 17th and August 18th. Wrestlers scheduled to appear include Perro Aguayo Jr., Mr. Aguila, Halloween, Damian, Felino, Negro Casas, and perhaps Mistico. Bands scheduled to appear include Blephegor (Austria), Enthroned (Belgium), Acheron (US), Inquisition (Colombia), Dismember and Grave (Sweeden), Sinster (Holland), Incantation (US).

Metal also talked about the Gran Alterniva at the press conference. He likes his chances with Super Nova, though can’t guarantee a win with the likes of UG and Negro invovled. Notimex also has an article talking with many of the young guys. Flash, Valiente and Super Comando are not quote which may mean everything, or may mean nothing at all. (Probably nothing at all.)

Guerreros del Ring #93 has Lizmark Jr. on the cover.
