Notimex (on MT) has three articles on Pierroth’s retirement: a bio, Pierroth talking about his career, and the current Hijo de Pierroth talking about carrying the name on. They’re going with the story that this one is the actual son of Pierroth, but that’s the story they always go with. The current Pierroth says the current Hijo de Pierroth will change his name to “Pierroth” as soon as the older one retires, so there won’t be Hijos or Juniors running around.
Box Y Lucha posted their video interviews with Fuerza Guerrera (says he’s starting in IWRG next Thursady and AAA wouldn’t pay him what he wanted for his mask match with Octagon) and Diamante Negro (which I have no details about.)
(Reforma via Jazzo) Mistico wants that singles match with Ultimo Guerrero, Crazy Boy is thrilled to bring in Generico, similar notes from the Pierroth retirement announcement.
CMLL (TUE) 04/15 Arena Aficion
1) Hombro Lobo vs Sacristian del Diablo
2) Judas el Traidor & Xibalva vs Maldito & Samoth
3) Cerebro Negro & Último Vampiro vs Freelance & Titan [ri]
4) Dark Angel vs Hiroka
5) Ephesto, Euforia, Nosferatu vs Arkangel de la Muerte, Hijo del Faraon, Tigre Blanco Jr.
This is obviously a couple days ago, but “Tigre Blanco Jr.” is interesting.
I’m shocked ROH would let Generico go with Crazy Boy. God knows what kinda stupid stunts Crazy boy is planning in the match.
You know the newest Pierroth interview says the Pierroth that takes over for him when he retires is his “legit son from Puerto Rico.” Yeah right. Anyways, interesting thing is it says he has yet to debut. And if Pierroth is discontinuing all the old Pierroth gimmicks, what was the point of creating a new Hijo De Pierroth and Pierroth II for just that one IWRG show?
Also what are the odds on Pierroth’s return to the ring? I say he’ll be back in March ’09 to ignite a Pierroth/fake Pierroth Jr. vs Cien Jr./MA2K Jr. feud.
