CMLL LATV #136 (03/14)

recap:
– women’s match was fine, better than most we got in the Marcela/Blanca feud. Lluvia had the roughest match I’ve seen of her so far, but it also appeared she was stuck wearing a t-shirt because someone decided her outfit was too much for Arena Mexico, so she’s okay with me. (Not for the outfit, for the messing with authority, totally.) There’s a rant I need to write out at some point about how the whole system is engineered for new women to be pushed out way too soon and fail, but I’ll save it for when someone cares.
– Tiger Kid vs Angel de Plata was one of the better lightning matches they’ve done and won over a crowd who wasn’t in to it.
– main had some bad moments in the third fall, Sagrado looking a lot more like a novato than the guys in the prior match.

AAA will be holding a public mass for Abismo Negro on Monday.

(Reforma via Jazzo) Mistico thinks the commission should strip Negro Casas of the CMLL Welterweight title for cheating to beat him (yet again.) It’s not very heroic of Mistico to demand Negro be defeated in an office when he can defeat him in the ring.

(Reforma via Jazzo) Perro Aguayo Jr. thinks Cibernetico’s break up with him is actually his way to leave the promotion and go back to AAA. (Probably not.)

Cesar rates Trueno, Messala/Caligula, Toscano and Fabian el Gitano.

Kcidis has his Kids’ day Cartoon for Fuego en le Ring’s magazine.

LuchaWorld has KrisZ’s news update, and Robert on 06/24 and 07/08/07 and Cadena3 on 12/29/07.
