05/02: links

In Record, Super Nova mentions that his next tours for NWE in Europe in August and beyond may be canceled due to the swine flu. WWE’s mentioned possibly canceling their next tour in Mexico for similar reasons.

DJ Spectro has a quite note on Magno passing away. Not the current ones from Tijuana and Juarez, but one who trained Alebrije and others.

Proyeccion Luchistica has a video interview with DTU wrestler Muerte Bucanera.

El Manana talks to Monterrey wrestler Street Boy

Ovaciones has a profile of Hector Garza to fill space.

Cesar rates Diana la Cazadora and India Sioux. As wrestlers.

  1. So as of right now it appears Galavision will be airing two (or three) more matches from Dos Leyendas including Guerrero vs Villano in a mask match.

    Cadena Tres is airing something called ‘La Mistica de Mistico’.

  2. first match on fox sports is valador, la sombra and mictlan (in mask so this is a little old) vs dragon rojo, misterioso, and ephesto from arena mexico. seems to be the build up to the dragon rojo mictlan mask match maybe?

  3. ACTUALLY. Even though it’s a repeat, that Arena Mexico show never made it to DVD b/c it aired on Cadena Tres with no advance notice and nobody recorded it.

  4. yeah, interesting and good that they produced a “new” fox sports show from old arena mexico footage. second match is panther (in mask), garza, and mistico vs casas, niebla, and guerrero. i think they just flashed up that this was from 8/22, but i thought mistico was injured by that point in the year.

  5. I take back what I said earlier b/c that first match could have been from 8/22 as well since they did the same match back-to-back weeks. Makes more sense for it to be from 8/22 since how would FSE be allowed to air C3 shot footage?

  6. Yeah, I am pretty sure it was the 8/22 show looking at it now since I believe they said they would be doing the mask match the next week.

    Is airing Gala footage on FSE easier than airing C3 footage?

  7. There have been past examples of Gala/FSE airing the same matches so it’s nothing new. On the other hand I’ve never seen anything C3 tapes end up airing on Galavision or the FSE/52MX shows. C3 is only allowed to tape Friday shows when Televisa doesn’t send their cameras (i.e. Olympics).

  8. They went to the effort of taping a new intro for the show with Blue Panther talking about what happened. He even has a FLU MASK!

  9. Oof, bad landing for the fan in the 5th row. Do we give Dragoncito extra points for taking out the grandma?

  10. Valiente vs Virus was AWESOME! Probably the best Lightning Match since they started doing them again. It lasted longer than the three fall mini’s opener.:)

  11. All of the Dos Leyendas matches were super short until the title match and the mask match. Valiente vs Virus was great though.

    Mask match is airing next week now? Does this mean that CMLL is not planning on running a show this upcoming Friday?

    And now we get to see Toscano’s last match for a while.

  12. Is it next week? I never saw it advertised for this week but they had clips in the intro. There’s still time if these two trios matches are really short.

  13. I thought they just showed clips in the “Proxima Semana” thing leading into this match.

  14. Missed it, bathroom break.:)

    But that sucks… or rules. Maybe they’ll bust out the Dorada vs Pequeno Warrior match next week too.

    Another week with nothing going on will be quite boring though.

  15. They keep saying “don’t worry kids, we’re still going to have a show for you” so that’s good.

  16. On LATV, we’re actually getting a different episode. It’s a rerun of the 11/30/08 episode (which I’m not sure if aired on FSE the first time)

    Satanico (c), Euforia, Nosferatu vs Stuka Jr. (c), Flash, Leono: Arena Coliseo, 11/23/08

    Averno (c), Mephisto, Ephesto vs Mistico (c), Sombra, Mascara Dorada: Arena Coliseo, 11/23/08

  17. Yeah, I remember that airing originally.

    C3 is airing the 1/6/09 Arena Coliseo main w/ Mistico so I’m guessing they’ll just air every main with Mistico they’ve shown thus far this year as there are only a couple left.

  18. AAA is so much better with four-sided ring. ACM ring is a little small, but the six-sided ring is overplayed.

    No Air Italia by Corleone in an arena with a permanent ramp. Perhaps the runway is too short to get enough lift to fly.

  19. Luckily, I got a little live lucha action tonight. Drove to Tyler for an NWA show and saw Blue Demon Jr. defeat Super Crazy in a suprisingly good and technical match, and also a triple threat with Cassandro winning out over (I think) Magnifico and some other luchador I’d never heard of. Cassandro is tremendous. I can see why TNA was looking into him (other than his gimmick, of course.)

  20. FWIW, Veo TV changed the CMLL timeslot again. It now airs at 4am EST. Right now they are airing the 4/15/07 Arena Coliseo show. The opener is on but this was a loaded show so the opener is just regular segunda/tercera guys. The segunda never made TV though and I don’t expect it to air on this show either with less than 1:30 left in it.

    Next Saturday should be the 4/22/07 show with La Sombra’s CMLL debut as Brillante in a match that never originally aired.

  21. I obviously suck. They are airing the originally unaired segunda. I think it’s funny that half the guys in this Sunday segunda are now main eventers – Mephisto, Misterioso II and La Mascara. Leono, Mictlan and Efesto… not so much.

  22. Should I record this Stuka Jr./Jeque unedited match for Cubs? I know how much he loved the edited version…

  23. Cubs game I think.

    And Parka/Laredo/Marco vs Psycho Circus ruled on AAA today. Marco fits in AAA so well.

  24. @Tim: Cool. Hope he has fun if that’s where he is.

    So I got a converter and antenna today. When in Tampa, I don’t get LATV b/c Brighthouse does not have it. Nor does Brighthouse carry WTAM-LP 30 which carries Multimedios programming. Now I’ll get both.

  25. @Tim: I though Marco might not get over, but he seems well-received. AAA is shaping up. Evans vs. Hart could be a great hair match if they go there. Zorro’s eye looked horrible, and the fans seem ready to make him a tecnico again.

  26. Silly me. Multimedios Tampa is not digital yet. They have a construction permit.

    LATV comes in great as a subchannel on Univision. LATV actually owns Univision here.

  27. Here in Orlando, LATV is with the local CBS station. And I’m guessing their’s no Multimedios Orlando is there?
