There’s nothing going on today. What passes for Hot News is Carlito leaving WWE and possibly ending up in AAA (according to WON), though he wouldn’t show up till early ’08 if it even happens.
CMLL actually added two matches to Sunday’s card.
CMLL (SUN) 12/02 Arena Mexico
1) Sensei, Sombra de Plata, Trueno vs Calígula, Hooligan, Méssala
2) Metálico, Stuka Jr., Tigre Blanco vs Shigeo Okumura, Skandalo, Virus
3) Amapola vs Marcela [CMLL WOMEN]
4) Felino, Sagrado, Volador Jr. vs Ephesto, Mephisto, Misterioso II
5) Leono vs Mr. México [hair]
6) Black Warrior, Lizmark Jr., Olímpico vs Místico, Rey Bucanero, Shocker
Marcela getting a title shot is quite random, since they’ve been building up Lady Apache getting a title shot. This should be fun and probably make TV, I’m not complaining.
Ovaciones writes about MS-2 returning to the ring. The short blurb has MS-2 claiming to be the original, but I believe MS-2 was a name used by many local wrestlers, to be the partner of the night for MS-1. I’m not sure what’s going on here.
Ovaciones also has a note about AAA being recognized as the Sport of the Year by the National Magazine Circulation organization. I guess they’ve been selling the most copies? Or they’ve been selling a lot more than the 0 we were pegging them for this time last year. Estrellita was named luchadora of the year, and I can’t think of why that’d be true.
Super Amigos airs Saturday (and already aired Wednesday) in the Santa Fe Film Festival.
Oh wow Carlito showing up in AAA! If that comes true then AAA really is officially the garbage dump federation…….Fuckin Konnan!!!!!!!!!
Due to poor ratings, IWRG is going to see a timeslot change soon. This is a heads-up to Alfredo and anyone in LA. 4-6pm on Saturday is supposed to be the new slot.
Show has done less than a 1.0 Hispanic. AAA gets more viewers and it’s limited to cable.
Is Mistico still getting the Cena treatment?
