06/25: Coliseo, Tijuana, Warped Tour, magazines

CMLL (SUN) 06/24 Arena Coliseo [ovaciones]
1) Rayo Tapatío I & Rayo Tapatío II b Calígula & Zayco
2) Mr. Aguilita, Pequeño Damian 666, Pequeño Halloween b Bam Bam, Pequeño Olímpico, Último Dragoncito
3) Hirooki Goto, Ohara, Shigeo Okumura b Leono, Stuka Jr., Valiente
4) Damián 666, Halloween, Mr. Águila b Heavy Metal, Máximo, Sombra
5) Tozcano, Último Guerrero, Universo 2000 b Dos Caras Jr., Marco Corelone, Rey Bucanero

Dos Caras hurt his knee on a dive in the second fall, but managed to continue. For that, he was fouled and pinned by Universo. Some sort of rematch will be added for this week, but nothing’s been announced. Didn’t sound like a title match quite yet, but it could be a singles.

Sombra replaced Mascara Purpura and his side lost in two falls. Stuka replaced Mictlan.

This is the card so far for Sunday

CMLL (SUN) 07/01 Arena Coliseo
1) Astro Boy & Trueno vs Carrona & Zayco
2) Bam Bam, Shockercito, Tzuki vs Mr. Aguilita, Pequeno Damian, Pequeno Halloween
3) Felino, La Mascara, Valiente vs Euforia, Nosferatu, Satanico
4) Alex Koslov, Heavy Metal, Volador Jr. vs Atlantis, Olimpico, Sangre Azteca

Robert’s reading much more into Valiente and Euforia being in the same match than I am. Tercera is about Valiente’s position right now, I think this was just the usual random match generator.

This was part of a Lourdes Grodet photo exhibition. Of course, can’t have a clean finish here – Ultimo yanked Rayo’s mask.

CMLL (FRI) 06/29 Plaza de Toros Joan Sebastian [box y lucha]
1) Arkano, Estruendo, Okawa vs Emperador, Flecha, Rey Lobo
2) India Sioux & Princesa Blanca vs Rosa Negra & Seductora
3) Felino, Maximo, Sagrado vs Arkangel, Dr. X, Misterioso II
4) Alex Koslov, Mistico, Rey Bucanero vs Mr. Aguila, Tarzan Boy, Ultimo Guerrero

This is a 9 PM start, so they could stretch it to go long regardless. Still, if Mistico & UG have to be in Mexico State later in the night, does that affect how long they’ll be in Arena Mexico?

The press release about AAA working the Warped Tour is here. Same lineup as previously noted (Angel, Psicosis, Decnis – which frees up the spot for Alfa on the atomico team, Mini Charly – I wonder if he’ll meet Other Mini Charly?, Mini Chessman, Super AAA, Piero as ref and it sounds like Dorian Roldan as management.) There’s a couple of lines that boggle my mind, though.

For over 14 years AAA has been the premier wrestling league in Mexico, and enjoys a near 80% share of ticket sales domestically.

“80% of tickets sold?” Where did that number come from?

Antena3 writes about Santo and Scorpio Jr. in Madrid.

Misterioso, Cassandro and Mascarita Sagrada were among luchadores at a show in Salt Lake City Tribune.

Magazines
Super Luchas #218 has Cibernetico and Latin Lover about to shake hands
Luchas 2000 #374 has Cibernetico and Latin Lover shaking hands
Box Y Lucha #2824 has neither Cibernetico nor Latin Lover, but the teased departures mentioned previously. I believe they’re just teases at this point, as if either guy could show up at the other side’s next big show, or not at all. Still not sure what Warrior’s deal is (I’m guessing money, as other people take his spot vs Mistico), but Intocable’s problem seems to be the continued Latin Lover vs Other Dancing Gimmicks deal.

  1. If only one week of mini’s make TV, I’ll be thrilled. If both weeks make it on TV… OH BOY! PARTY TIME!!!:D I might have enough footage for a CMLL mini’s music video!

    “Robert’s reading much more into Valiente and Euforia being in the same match than I am. Tercera is about Valiente’s position right now, I think this was just the usual random match generator.”

    Perhaps. The match looks fishy to me since there are so many other tecnicos you could put in the match instead of Valiente who are on Felino/Mascara’s level and yet Valiente was chosen. Not saying he’s gonna win… but I could see him and Euforia in the finals and begining a marriage (long-term rivalry).

    And for the record, how dare you assume CMLL uses a random match generator! Jose Luis Feliciano takes a lot of pride in booking Sombra De Plata/Astro Boy vs Polvora/Vaquero matches!

  2. Can’t see any reason why both of matches won’t be shown. For the past couple of months the dead spot has pretty much always been either the Arena Mex segunda or Tercera. So you should be happy. Of course , it’s scandalous that in 4 hours of TV, they can’t show all Fri and Sun matches from the segundas up, matches but that’s another matter.

    I was kinda hoping for a ‘good’ undercard segunda this week, thinking that spot follows almost a monthly pattern with the women, minis, shitty undercarders (Leono/Fabian/Loco Max/Nitro etc), and the good undercarders. But i guess that theory has been blown out the water.

    Strange how Bam Bam floats around for about 2 years without a sniff of a Tv match, then gets injured, returns and within a month has his first two two TV appearances in consecutive weeks.

    But the match i’m most interested in this week takes place in Guadalajara – Los Guillererros and Jeque maybe teaming!.. and it might make TV! :D
    And i don’t even care if these Metallic dudes they’re up againstare sub-Joe Lider level backyarders! :D

    Which reminds me, any news coming out on whether Jeque won last night? Can’t see anything on Boxylucha.

  3. GDL results have been few and far between, but I do recall someone posting in all caps over at Satanico’s Mansion about how awful ACG is and how horrible it is that they’re pushing Metal Blanco like Mistico.

    I take that to mean Jeque lost.

  4. Not only is Metal Blanco a Mistico-ripoff right down to the mak and pose… he also uses La Mistica as his finisher. So they aren’t even TRYING to hide the fact he is a ripoff.
