AAA-US: As Albert helpfully noted in the comments, this is now listed as a one hour show. In Mexico, this was a three match show that went about 56 minutes. That means something gets cut, and mostly likely the opener. It’d be a shame, because Fenix looked very good. Alternative is a lot of things get cut.

52MX: Sunday taped shows are very tough to figure this week; they usually air four matches between them, but they taped five storyline driven matches. That doesn’t include the semimain, which usually airs (because it’s the semimain.) I’m guessing both the Rayos vs Gen11 and Invasors/Misterioso vs Trios Champs match is here, but I could see one of those matches just not airing anywhere.

LATV: Hoping they don’t screw this up, because next in line is a really sweet looking Demus/Pierrothito vs Astral/Electrico match.

GDL: swing match is Maya/Starman vs Leon Blanco and Rafaga, two rudos who have never appeared on this incarnation of GDL TV. Likely bouts include Oro/Plata/Valiente vs Dragon/Okumura/Virus and Felino/Niebla vs Fantamsa/Dorada. About that semimain: Angel Azteca Jr. sure has vanished lately. Not being in the Forjando un Idolo or the Vets/Gen11 stuff has bumped him out of DF for over a month now.

——-

CMLL: back to 2 hours. Escorpion/Cometa and Oro/Negro should air from the Forjando un Idolo tournament, but I heavily recommend the YouTube versions. Also: Triad vs Panther/Mascara/Sombra and Garza/Goto/Volador vs Guerreros to set up that title match.

AAA-MEX: leftovers from Pachuca, looks like they have 2 hours here. Atomic Boy/Fenix/Relampago vs Dragon/Cota/Santana should be good. Electro/Tiger/Jack vs Silver/UG/Chessman – apparently Chessman is a Maniaco now, if this week’s show can be believed. Damian/Halloween/Lizmark/X-Fly vs Wagner/Psycho Circus, good for Wagner’s mask if nothing else.

FOX: The two Forjando un Idolo matches were definitely taped for this show, and Blue Panther vs Negro Casas should air here as well.

C3: two more Forjando un Idolo matches, Team GDL/Sangre vs Ephesto/Euforia/Raziel, and Panther/Maximo/Super Porky vs Bucanero/Terrible/Texano. I hope Bucanero really hasn’t left the Pesta Negra, would hate to see Felino and Zacarias split apart.

CMLL-Mega6 (GDL): swing match is a women’s trios, . Main event was supposed to be Sombra/Rush/Toscano vs Aguila/Olimpico/Psicosis (and I did see a fan cell phone pic on Twitter that confirmed most of that.)

Puebla: Stop me if you’ve heard this: more Forjando un Idolo. They’re also one week out from the Goto/Guerrero match here.

ACM: main event from last week?

Perros: ???

IWRG: last night’s card

  1. Time to add on to my booking of TnT’s revolving third teammate gimmick. Rey Buc’s new gimmick should be that he is in every rudo group. Someone get Zacarius a mohawk mask so that Rey can team with Skandalo and Hooligan. Just make sure its not pink. Can’t have people thinking he is Mini Maximo!
