Other News

The King, who also wrestled as Black Charly, passed away last month. He was another Laguna born wrestler who made it to the  UWA wrestler in the early 1990s

Alebrije/Kraneo says Cuije is still going to be with him, but you’ll have to be there Sunday to find out his new look & name.

Porra Fresa begins it’s look back at 2011 with the foreigners and the women. The foreigner who appeared most in Arena Puebla was Yoshihashi, and the woman was Luna Magica. That seems a bit mean.

DTU & IWL will run a combo show on 02/18. Press conference on Wednesday to announce foreign talent.

Lucha Libe in Japan

01/17 AJPW: Ozz (O), Cuervo, Black Bushi b Kenzo Suzuki, Kaz Hayashi, Hiroshi Yamato [X]

NJPW is hosting a fan club party with CMLL and NJPW wrestlersd when they’re in for the tour. Just the CMLL rudos – Mephisto, Volador, Okumura and Misterioso – so the tecnicos must be hanging out with other people.

Veneno returns to SMASH on their02/19 show, teaming with Kenzo Suzuki. They never teamed in Japan, but were on opposite sides of Mexico vs Japan matches when the Dragon Gate guys were coming into IWRG (and teasing Dragon Gate Mexico.)

Lineups

CMLL (FRI) 01/13/2012 Arena Mexico

1) Aereo & Pequeño Halcón vs Mercurio & Pequeño Universo 2000
2) Hombre Bala Jr. vs Disturbio [lightning]
3) Dalis la Caribeña, Dark Angel, Marcela vs Amapola, Princesa Blanca, Zeuxis
4) Stuka Jr., Titán, Triton vs Euforia, Misterioso Jr., Shigeo Okumura
5) Atlantis, Delta, Guerrero Maya Jr. vs Averno, Ephesto, Mephisto
6) La Máscara, La Sombra, Máscara Dorada vs Mr. Águila, Psicosis, Volador Jr.

Really strong lineup. This is the first time the Golden Generacion trios has teamed in Arena Mexico since they lost the titles, and versus a fun rudo team. Psicosis appears to be totally correct about not having to change his name.

Semimain matches the national champs versus the world champs in what should also be pretty good.

Special is a rematch from this past week, likely focusing more on Stuka & Euforia.

Even the women’s match is pretty strong. It and the champs versus champ match should air on Fox, while the other two would normally be Televisa/Galavision matches.

Lightning match is likely a followup to Hombre Bala’s win, but it’s also the biggest chance for Disturbio yet (outside of first round Gran Alternativa exists.)

Minis are just the low men on the totem pole. They have something in Mercurio. I don’t know what they do with it, but he should be a rudo of note in the next couple of years.

  1. You’ve got the result of #2 from Arena Mexico backwards.

    Aereo/Pequeno Halcon vs Mercurio/Pequeno Universo is the new version of 2000-2003 Cicloncito Ramirez/Ultimo Dragoncito vs Pierrothito/Fierito matches.

  2. Really hope Disturbio has a good showing in Lightning match, always liked what I saw from him.

  3. LATV was a rerun from August. Sobre el Ring was a rerun from who knows. La Luchas was also a rerun, way back on Tuesday

    CMLL Galavision has
    06-03 1) Ángel de Oro, Rey Escorpion, Último Guerrero vs Blue Panther, Fuego, Pólvora in a Forjando un Idolo match
    07-15 2) Valiente vs Pólvora for the Mexican National Welterweight Championship
    08-19 3) Cancerbero, Raziel, Virus vs Dragon Lee, Metal Blanco, Palacio Negro

    1st was uploaded on Alexis’ channel, third aired on TV. 2nd aired on Fox Sports when no one was uploading it. It’s likely clipped but might as well put it up anyway. Ending in August sure seemed to indicate another week of (mostly) airing random matches that have no particular meaning and are occasionally flying in the face of current events – look, it’s Metal Blanco & Palacio Negro in a match, what ever became of them? I’m not suggesting they’re putting in no effort, because no effort would mean just picking the obvious matches like something from Averno/Mascara and the Forjando un Idolo final and the like. Someone in charge is putting effort to make this as counter productive month possible. No idea why.

    AAA started airing Guerra de Titanes.

  4. ACM is airing

    12/18: 3) Lady Maravilla, Principe Franky, Rey Morgan, Rosa Salvaje vs Demencia, Pancho Tequila, Sexy Maciel

    which I would guess means Sangre Chicana vs Huracan Ramriez airs tomorrow if they do the 2 hour show.

  5. @thecubsfan: Nope! In the midst of a lot of repeats, they have aired on new match:

    12/27: Rey Demonio & Rico Rodriguez vs Big Neurosis & Golden Boy
