CMLL Anniversary Predictions

CMLL (FRI) 09/28 Arena Mexico
1) Metalico, Stuka Jr., Valiente vs Euforia, Loco Max, Nosferatu
2) Dark Angel, Luna Magica, Marcela vs Amapola, Hiroka, Princesa Sujei
3) La Sombra, Ultimo Dragon, Volador Jr. vs Misterioso Jr., Texano Jr., Virus
4) Alex Koslov, Sagrado, Sombra vs Ephesto, Sangre Azteca, Toscano
5) Marco Corelone, Negro Casas, Rey Bucanero vs Averno, Mephisto, Olimpico
6) Mistico vs Hijo del Perro Aguayo, Villano V, Dr. Wagner Jr., Ultimo Guerrero, Hijo de Lizmark, Blue Panther, Atlantis [cage, hair, mask]

As noted when this card came out, there’s nothing very interesting about this card. Various important people are putting their mask (or hair) on the line, but there’s not much chance of them losing. The main event will draw a full house by itself, but CMLL is too aware of that and just threw together a bunch of names in unappealing matches for the rest of the show.

Still, might as well throw some guesses together on the stuff that matters. SuperLuchas ran a poll to guess the loser, and Villano V ran away with it. Lizmark Jr. is second, and those are the two safe bets – I’m 95% sure it’ll be one or the other.

As Steve Sims pointed out on Figure Four Daily, figuring out the winner is more interesting. Someone gets to put a famous mask on their resume forever and gets the post-mask loss program for a couple of months.

Who do you have as the last two? Who’s going to lose their mask? I’ll put my guesses after the link.


I’ve been thinking Mistico beats Lizmark Jr. since the match was announced, and I think I’ll stick with it. Lizmark Jr. losing in spot shots makes me wonder how well a Mistico/Lizmark program is going to draw, but it’s their best bet.

  1. Aguayo and Lizzy are the guys to watch IMO, to me, they’re the only guys who can be on either side, Aguayo could check a huge big mascara kind of money or win this, same for Lizmark, I think either of them winning would mean they’ll lose to Mistico in 3 months.

    Opposite in the spectrum would be Wagner who’s not losing nor winning this, Mistico is not losing, of course, and might win depending on the one losing. Mistico taking Panther or VV mask would produce too much of a backlash…

    CMLL should have Mistico beating Lizmark, would be wisest thing for them to do. Mistico is the only real CMLL guy and it would not make sense for them to push someone else, besides, it seems Mistico has lost too much punch in the drawing department, even last IWRG was far from packed and that’s a pretty small venue, they need to reactivate his popularity with a big win.

  2. I put my comments up on the DVDVR board but the main is spoilerific so I’ll just post quick predictions here:

    Opener: Rudos
    Segunda: Rudas
    Tercera: Tecnicos
    Especial: Tecnicos – Sombra challenging Azteca for his belt
    Semi-Main: Rudos
    Main: Mistico taking Lizmark Jr.’s mask

    For anyone else attempting to predict the outcome, I offer this advice:

    DO NOT OVERTHINK CMLL BOOKING!

  3. The first match I think will start with Technicos winning. Got to have the fans start off happy.

    The Rudas and Rudos will win match 2 and 3. Probably start a Sombra/Texano feud or something

    Wait a minute, Sombra is wrestling twice? Shouldn’t one of them be La Mascara? I got the Technicos winning 4 and 5.

    The main event is tricky. They could go the easy way and most predictable way of having Mistico beat Lizmark Jr. But i’m going with something different. I think the final three will be Wagner, Mistico and Villano. Wagner and Villano will have a 2 on one advantage. Wagner will leave and Mistico will overcome the odds once again and beat Villano for his mask.

    I wouldn’t be shocked if Lizmark would lose but I would be stunned if either Lizmark or Villano didn’t drop the fall.
