A poster on Box Y Lucha alleges the CMLL minis wrestling in Acapulco last night were in no condition to be in the ring. The match was scheduled to be Ultimo Dragoncito & Mini Maximo vs Pierrothito & Demus, and user says Mini Maximo and Demus looked drunk. This is one anonymous poster, which makes the story less than confirmed.
EAW’s press release/interview with the new Super Pollo doesn’t reveal his identity, but does allude to the promotion being very unhappy with Pollo (now Pollifacetico) for losing the mask they gave him. They even hint towards a lawsuit, though in such a manner than it seems unlikely to actually happen.
AAA’s website mentions the Apache’s upcoming trip to Japan. They’ll be there from 08/20 to 08/28 for three shows.
LuchaWorld has KrisZ’s news update and the return of the weekly ramblings.

Lineups
CMLL (TUE) 08/23/2011 Arena Mexico
1) Aereo & Pequeño Halcón vs Mercurio & Pequeño Nitro
2) Lluvia, Luna Mágica, Marcela vs Amapola, Princesa Blanca, Princesa Sugheit
3) Fuego & Magnus vs Puma King & Tiger
4) Diamante, Metal Blanco, Palacio Negro vs Cancerbero, Raziel, Yoshihashi
5) Ángel de Oro, Blue Panther, Máximo vs Averno, Mephisto, Pólvora
6) Rush vs Mr. Águila [CMLL LH]
Title match should be interesting. Fuego switching feuds from Dr. X to Puma or Tiger would be fine with me, though I don’t know that’s what they’re actually doing. That match should be good and so should the fourth.
CMLL (TUE) 08/23/2011 Arena Coliseo Guadalajara
1) Thunder Boy vs Acertijo
2) Hierro & Magnum vs Gran Kenut & León Blanco
3) Metatrón & Sensei vs Exterminador & Nitro
4) Gallo, Metro, Stuka Jr. vs Euforia, Nosferatu, Virus
5) Héctor Garza, La Máscara, Máscara Dorada vs El Alebrije, Psicosis, Volador Jr.
Semimain is a rematch, so something’s going on there. Hmmm. Main event follows up the Garza/Invasors feud. I’m looking forward to when this airs on Teleformula (in six months.)

Not an iPPV. Poster says it’s on TV, but almost all posters say that now just to make it seem like a more attractive show, and very few actually turn up on TV.
