Previews: ESTO & Ovaciones. Quiet show, with as much attention being paid to the announcement of Cavernaro Galindo as the second legend of Dos Leyendas as the show. Ovaciones tries to hype up the possibilities of Flash vs Arkangel in a mask match.
Pierroth II is among those organizing a benefit show for the original Pierroth, still at home recovering. The plan is to run the show on April 3rd, in Arena Azteca Budokan, with indy wrestlers (Wagner, Mascara Sagrada, Huracan Ramirez, Pierko el Boricua and the Junior capos are the bigger names.)
SuperLuchas says the press confrence for the Lucha Libre Expo is on 03/24. CMLL matches are expected to be on May 2, AAA on May 3rd.
Canasanta has quotes from a Blue Demon Jr./el Hijo del Santo panel discussion in Colombia.
Kcidis draws angry Veneno.
There’s call for the Pacucha lucha comissioner to be removed from office, because he’s just handing out wrestling licenses to whomever.
The Llaves y Piquetes Box Y Lucha rumor column has all sorts of fun gossip, suggesting Wagner and Koslov would like to return to CMLL most prominently. They also say Bam Bam spent the night in the hospital after taking the martinete last Friday and Polvora & Pegasso were also hurt. They also hype a possible Black Warrior vs La Mascara in a hair vs mask match, so take this with grains of salt. The Rasgunos del Gato Manoso aritcle talks about La Hercihcera recovering from a tibia injury
SuperLuchas looks back at AAA pre-TripleMania I.
LuchaWorld has IWRG 10/11/07 IWRG and IWRG 10/11/07 IWRG and GDL from September 07, and KrisZ’s news update.

Aw.:( Can’t believe we’ll never see that! Stupid TVC!
Is anyone else going to try to stumble out of bed by noon to see what VEO TV is airing from CMLL tmrw?
@Rob: LOL. I hope someone does. I should catch the last hour.
CMLL is so awesome…
“Sagrado, Mictlán y Valiente, sin problemas dejaron descalabrados a Misterioso, Felino y Okumura, en lo que fue la tercera lucha de la noche de ayer.”
Yep, it was actually a six match show last night and no doubt everyone in the company knew about the match since you don’t just randomly get 6 guys to show up for a last second match. Yet at no point did anyone fix the cards on CMLL.com, the Hi5 page or let any newspaper or magazine know.
La Seria y Desorganizado?
Maybe I have the wrong link but all I’ve seen so far is animals running around and infomercials…
Okay, it just started. I guess Spain is as lax with start times as Mexico is.
Opener is Valiente/Maximo/Felino vs Ohara/Okumura/Goto from 4/6/07 which already aired on GdR originally.
And since last week was the 3/30 show and this is the 4/6 show…
DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!??!!??!!?
It means I’m going back to bed.
@Rob: 4.6.07 means it aired on FSE or 52mx?
4/6/07 was the day it was taped. Top 3 aired on Galavision, second match aired on 52MX originally.
If they go in order and air the 4/13/07 show next week, the third match never aired anywhere originally so that’d be new but it doesn’t look like an overly special match.
Now they are showing:
Rayo/Wagner/Koslov vs. Tarzan/Sangre Azteca/Atlantis
Atlantis was much more intense as a heel back then. What date was this from?
So much for weekly openers.
Our hopes dashed once again :(
Perro Jr./Demon/Aguila vs. Corleone/Mistico/Sagrado. This had to air on Televisa.
Another typical CMLL 7 minute ring intro. Would’ve taken longer if the heels didn’t come to the ring together.
Garza vs. U. Guerrero mano a mano.
