In a newspaper interview, Nicho says he’d like to get back into CMLL again. LA Park got him in last time, and they’re hoping to do that again. Nicho says he left AAA because he wanted more pay if he was going to do extreme matches. That actually sounds reasonable. Nicho was also unhappy with the people chosen for the Familia group – he wanted larger and more experienced guys than Extreme Tiger. Nicho talks about returning to CMLL as if it’s already a fact, so either he’s confusingly referring to spots shows or he’s announced something before CMLL has.
AAA (WED) 02/13 Polideportivo de la BUAP [morgan_alebrije @ box y lucha]
1) Billy Boy & el Ángel b Gran Apache & Pirata Morgan Jr.
2) Estrellita, Mascarita Sagrada 2007, May Flowers b Fabi Apache, Mini Chessman, Polvo de Esterllas
3) Aero Star & Rey Cometa DQ Extreme Tiger & Halloween
4) Alan Stone, El Alebrije, Octagón b Histeria, Mr. Niebla, Psicosis II
5) Electroshock, Kenzo Suzuki, Zorro b Cibernetico, El Elegido, La Parka Jr.
La Parka Jr. was a surprise, he’s now even working shows they didn’t advertised him on. Electro replaced X-Pac, and Zorro might have hurt his knee. Tiger tossed his mask to Aero Star for the DQ. Sounds like a full hose.
triplea.com.mx hypes Cibernetico‘s return tomorrow.

There’s another data point. The trios match was a rematch from two weeks ago, where challenges were made for this to be a title match. Not sure if it actually will be, though that seems to be trend.

CMLL (THU) 02/14 Arena Isabel de Cuervanaca
1) La Sombra, Sagrado, Volador Jr. vs La Máscara, Stuka Jr., Valiente
2) Grey Shadow & Místico vs Averno & Último Guerrero

I see one of three possibilities for this match:
1) CMLL is really behind pushing the shit outta Shadow, this is his chance to work with two of the best rudos, to see if they think they can work with him in bigger matches
2) CMLL is going to replace Shadow here with someone else
3) UG & Averno are going to beat the holy hell out of Shadow.
I am gonna be so depressed if they don’t bring that tecnicos vs tecnicos match to Arena Mexico. These smaller arena matches should be just warm-ups. Look at this clip from the Xalapa match:

W-O-W!
Wow indeed. That’s a hell of a move by Valiente. And another big crowd. Glad to see spot shows are drawing again for both CMLL and AAA.
So Psicosis is promoting a AAA show, but speaks publicly about wanting to work in CMLL? That makes sense.
