(Strong Style Spirit) Mistico is going to NJPW for their annual 1/4 Tokyo Dome show. He was the big announcement of the press conference – over the TNA guys – so perhaps this will work out well for him.
Other notes from today’s Ovaciones:
– an update about Pierroth, who is stable but still in intensive care. RFC writes in more detail, and it sounds bad.
– the main event of next week’s Puebla show is Sombra/Shocker/Mistico (return there) vs Negro/Niebla/Bucanero, with Mistico being mentioned as 90 percent back at this point.
– Martha Villalobos is running a charity show for the Teleton.
AAA announced they’ll be part of the sports parade this weekend. I always love when photos of this (and CMLL’s float) turn up, but it’s funny to look at the long list of people who will be on AAA’s float and note who’s not there: no Cibernetico, no Mesias, no Chessman, no Charly Manson, no Konnan, no La Parka Jr., no Zorro, no Octagon, not even Elegido; the most important ugys are Silver King, Super Porky and Alan Stone. I don’t expect CMLL to be much different.
WagnerMania looks at Wagner vs Atlanits.
Ohtani’s Jacket watches the Bam Bam/Mini Damian title and hair match series.
LuchaWorld has Robert on 08/12/06 CMLL, a great AULL show from 10/11/06 and Alfredo (!)on Gimnasio Nuevo Leon 01/06/08 as well as KrisZ’s news update.

I thought CMLL was supposed to run a show here. Guess not any more. The AAA one seems like they figured out who was going to work the show, realized they couldn’t make the matches make any sense, and just decided not to care.
5) La Parka Jr. & Octagón vs Konnan & Mesias:
I already know who is going to win this one, Mesias turns on Konnan, La Parka and Octagon beats the new “boss”, and get the win.
5) Cibernetico, Rayo de Jalisco Jr., Tinieblas Sr. vs Head Hunter I, LA Park, Monsther:
Truly interesting main event here. Looks like this will be fun or just a straight up brawl.
By the way, who is that in the picture looking like the lead singer of Jamiroquai in a mask.
@k.D.b: Niebla
@thecubsfan: What the hell is he wearing?
A ‘fro.
It’s a fake afro, duh. :)
He’s worn in on a couple CMLL shows recently. He also starts wrestling in it, but it usually gets ripped off by a tecnico.
@C: Which we can both agree is a MAJOR travesty.
“Child of God” Mistico? Will this new gimmick require him to fuck corpses and wear scalp wigs, Cormack McCarthy style?
~rl
@RL: That’s…DisGUSTing!!
Hey Rob!! Black man present!!
Two Rob’s?
Different Robs. Notice the icon next to the name changed. That’s how you know.
But then, it’s kinda of a dumb comment so now I’m going to delete it anyway, and none of this will make sense. It’s not good form to use a name someone else is using anyway.
Niebla needs to lose his mask and disappear from CMLL fast if he isn’t going to raise his game. In his current spell as a rudo, he has been absolutely dreadful, a total waste of space – And that’s coming from a fan of tecnico Niebla from 97-05, even with all his ‘problems’
Raise game in CMLL main event scene? HA
@Anonymous: Niebla was better off coming back as a technico.
