Cibernetico, Parka and Joaquin were on a talk show discussing the current storyline. Ciber says he didn’t mean to hurt La Parka’s kid, but he’s not Mr. Rogers and the kid is dumber than Cibernetico’s dog. Parka yelled angrily. Cibernetico offered a match where the winner of the match would get Parka’s kid for a month. Why would either man want to do that? Parka noted that the last time they had a match with stakes on the line, it went very poorly for Cibernetico.

Mistico

A Japanese lucha libre photograph says Mistico told him in September that he was learning English in preparation for going to WWE. Mistico had talked to WWE before the Tokyo Dome card was announced, and that’s why he wasn’t on the card. The photographer knew Mistico was going to WWE in mid-January and wasn’t expecting Mistico to actually make the Japan tour, but he did.
