Generic previews: Ovaciones, ESTO, and Notimex. Mentions of AAA: 0.
About a month ago, I would’ve been absolutely sure Marco Corelone was winning this. Marco’s on the precipise of meaning a lot, Lizmark doesn’t have that problem. Marco loses, and he’s stuck in that role of guy who’s always on top but doesn’t mean anything. Lizmark loses, he just looks like more of a freak.
Now, I have no idea. I’m sure CMLL has a good idea, and Marco’s probably been subject to many long conversations with people trying to decide if they should believe what he’s saying. And it’s not like Marco’s done anything wrong, he’s just had interesting friends.
Figuring out the finish has become less interesting than figuring out what comes next. If CMLL thinks he’s leaving, they surely don’t want him winning on the way (which begs the question of Marco even showing.) If Marco wins, it doesn’t definitively answer anything – he’s still go a week (and a lot longer) to change his mind and still leave. I’m leaning towards Marco winning and things remaining uncertain, but I’m not sure on this. It’s as much a toss up as they’ve had for a main event apuesta match in a while, and it has nothing to do with the build.
Semimain is also more interesting for getting an idea of where they’re going with this then for the match itself. There’s not much else going on, though I would have Averno & Mepshito demand Garza vacate the tag titles if they’ve got to wait at least two more months to get a shot.
Rellik was such a big deal, this newspaper recap doesn’t even notice him.

AAA.com announced the next 3 tapings after the Pena Memorial:
Nov. 9 – Irapuato

Nov. 17 – Leon
I am very interested in the semi-main tonight @ Arena Mex. I have no doubts it’ll just setup a revenge match next week but I’d like to see if they do any angle advancement so we know if this will be a feud vs just the Villanos or if all the Laguneros are joining together and we may get to see something like Sombra/Stuka Jr./Misterioso II vs Volador Jr./Hector Garza/Rey Bucanero.
