CMLL (FRI) 02/10/2012 Arena Mexico [CMLL]
1) Bronco & Camorra b Leono & Soberano Jr.
Zayco, out hurt, was listed on the rudo side. Camorra took his place.
2) Diamante, Pegasso, Rey Cometa DQ Cancerbero, Euforia, Raziel
Straight fall win, though painful – Euforia fouled Cometa in the third.
3) Puma King b Super Halcon Jr. [lightning]
Puma, accompanied by UNAM’s puma mascot Goyo, won with a new backcracker variation.
4) Dark Angel, Estrellita, Goya Kong b Amapola, Princesa Blanca, Princesa Sugheit
Amapola was caught using the ropes for a pin, but Estrellita was not and that got her the win.
5) Rey Bucanero, Terrible, Tiger b Ángel de Oro, La Máscara, Valiente
6) Blue Panther, Guerrero Maya Jr., Máscara Dorada DQ Felino, Mr. Niebla, Negro Casas
Guerrero Maya replaced Sombra, which they knew early enough in time to have up on radiocmll. Negro punted Panther for the DQ. Negro went to grab the microphone after the match, but just pummeled Panther more instead of talking. Eventually, Negro accepted Panther’s challenge for a hair match at Dos Leyendas.
Figure on a contract signing next Wednesday or Thursday. Hopefully no other Casas brother gets involved this time; nothing is guaranteed until they get thru that skit. This is just a strong verbal.
I’m picking Panther to win, but it’s not a sure thing. It’s unlikely CMLL would do two hair matches on the same show, so Amapola and Estrellita are probably headed to a title rematch.
Very bizarre that Zayco was listed as wrestling, when the promotion itself mentioned he would be out for months and they knew enough to not list Sombra’s name on the day of the show. No one talks to each other in CMLL.
Rob posted Santo/Shocker/LA Park vs Ultimo Guerrero/Rey Bucanero/Perro Aguayo, from 09/03/2004. A fun match!

Amapola and Estrellita title rematch?? what title?
The Parejas Increibles Tournament final will be the Dos Leyendas semi main event.
Negro Casas lost his hair two times in a row (Mistico and Charly Manson), he has to win this time.
Fox Sports aired Reyes del Aire tournament.
In my opinion it was very good, there were very good spots, i really like Raziel’s and Euforia’s finishers (especially the euforia one…that looked really painful), and it’s more enjoyable watching it on fox.
I agree with Ringo, Casas has to be winning this one. Panther can survive the loss, and Casas can’t lose it three times in a row.
GDL seems to be a repeat
@Infermas: #1 contenders for the women’s title.
@Tim: Thanks for letting me know!
52MX has the top 2. Aspect ratio was messed up (should’ve been framed like usual, was stretched instead), and I’ll wait to see if they fix it on the reair instead of having to fix it myself.
I missed the first fall of the women’s match on Galavision because they started five minutes (because they ended five minutes early – though they could’ve just cut five minutes of filler.) I hope you will all be OK.
AYM had a Sobre el Ring on today, but that was a rerun from early in the week. However, the lucha libre show that followed was not a rerun – it was a new IWAS show from the monthly Toy Museum shows. Mostly the underdcards from the last couple shows (think Rey Kumbitia and not Karoui and Demon) El Pancracio usually writes about those, I’ll try and figure a date before I post it.
ACM is last Sunday’s main event.
LATV rerun of the week: 11/26 C3, 11/22 taping. Dark Angel being in the opener makes it really easy to figure out – that was her only Tuesday DF match of the last half of last year.
