CMLL (MON) 03/05/2012 Arena Puebla [Porra Fresa]
1) Arissma, Espiritu Maligno, Policeman b Asturiano, Blue Center, Stigma
Rudos took 1/3. Asturiano and Stigma were upset with Blue Center, who made mistakes during the match.
2) Centella de Oro & Loco Max b Raziel & Virus
Loco tries to jump Virus, but it backfires. Virus & Raziel won the first, Loco & Centella took the second. Raziel beat Centella in the third, leaving Loco alone. Loco avoided a top rope dropkick from Raziel and pinned him to tie it up, then submitted Virus to take the match. Loco challenged Virus to a hair match, and Virus agreed.
3) Blue Panther, La Máscara, Máximo b Kráneo, Morphosis, Psicosis
tecnicos took 1/3.
4) Atlantis, Máscara Dorada, Stuka Jr. b Pólvora, Rey Escorpion, Último Guerrero
Tecnicos took 2/3. Polvora and Stuka are feuding here too, with Stuka demanding a title shot. Polvora refused to answer, just walking out.
5) Rush DQ Terrible
Terrible took the first, Rush the second, and Terrible fouled Rush while he was going for a top rope move in the third.
CMLL (TUE) 03/06/2012 Arena Coliseo Guadalajara [Fuego en el Ring]
***Dos Leyendas 2012 (Guadalajara)***
1) Virgo b Rey Trueno
2) Black Metal DQ Exterminador
Exterminador accidentally pulled Black Metal’s mask for the DQ.
3) Euforia, Raziel, Virus b Rey Cometa, Stuka Jr., Triton
Rudos took 2/3.
4) Princesa Blanca b Lady Apache [MEX WOMEN]
Advertised as a hair match, changed to a title match “by orders of the commission” a couple days prior. Felino was his wife’s second, Valiente was Lady Apache’s second. Blanca took falls two and three, the last with a casita for the win and to keep the title.
5) Volador Jr. b La Sombra, Rush, Mr. Niebla, Negro Casas, Hijo del Fantasma, Valiente, Felino, Olímpico, Ángel de Oro [cibernetico]
Order of elimination went Angel de Oro (Felino), Olimpico (Rush), Felino (Fantasma), Valiente (Negro Casas), Fatnasma (Niebla), Negro Casas (Sombra), Rush & Mr. Niebla went to a double count out, and Volador beat Sombra for the win.
KaiserSports introduces Akuma 3:16. As mentioned in the comments back when he was spotted, Akuma is the (younger) brother of Demus 3:16. Akuma is 17 and 177 cm tall, which would put him easily in the full sized division, not in the minis division. That’s only in theory, since he has no debut date at this time and is still just hoping to make it to CMLL. They did the photo shoot inside of Arena Mexico, and Akuma’s been training with Virus, so he’s got a good shot. Akuma says he’s been training in wrestling since he was 7, and it was seeing Sombra, Volador and Mistico in the 75th Anniversary show that really made him like lucha. (Mistico did not actually wrestle on that show, but maybe his seconding skills were just that impressive.)
This Sunday in Arena Azteca in Guadalajara, the main event is mask vs hair. It’s also the promoter of this building (ex-CMLL Neutron!) vs the promoter of rival building Arena Jalisco.

Lucha Libre In Japan
CMLL announced two matches for the 05/13 REINA 1st Anniversary show.
* Princesa Blanca (c) vs Lady Apache [MEX WOMEN] – rematch
* Goya Kong & Dalis vs Zeuxis & Mima Shimoda
The news update also emphasizes Dark Angel is an independent luchadora who works in CMLL (as opposed to a CMLL ‘contracted’ one.) This is about the show Dark Angel worked in Japan last week; it wasn’t a REINA show, and the idea is CMLL luchadoras can only be seen in that promotion.

Lineups
CMLL (MON) 03/12/2012 Arena Puebla
***Dos Leyendas 2012 (Puebla)***
1) Black Tiger & Blue Center vs Fuerza Chicana & Siki Ozama Jr.
2) Bam Bam & Último Dragoncito vs Pequeño Olímpico & Pierrothito
3) Stuka Jr., Titán, Triton vs Euforia, Pólvora, Raziel
4) Loco Max vs Virus [hair]
5) Marco Corleone vs Blue Panther, Máximo, Atlantis, Máscara Dorada, Mr. Águila, Terrible, Mephisto, Último Guerrero, Rey Bucanero [cibernetico]
There’s usually been a March stipulation match here in Puebla, but it’s only the last couple years where they’ve used the Dos Leyendas name in association with it. This is much like the Guadalajara card, so I must note that Virus has a championship should this hair match get backed out of as well. Virus is the favorite.
That undercard looks great.
CMLL (TUE) 03/13/2012 Arena Mexico
1) Camaleón & Freesbe vs Ramstein & Zayco
2) Metatrón & Tigre Blanco vs Artillero & Súper Comando
3) Triton vs Raziel, Disturbio, Robin, Bronco, Hombre Bala Jr., Hijo del Signo, Super Halcon Jr. [Sangre Nueva, semifinal]
4) Fuego, Sangre Azteca, Super Porky vs Misterioso Jr., Namajague, Shigeo Okumura
5) Ángel de Oro, La Máscara, Marco Corleone vs Olímpico, Psicosis, Volador Jr.
Looks like the Psicosis/Mascara feud is continuing.
Porky vs Namajague should be a battle.
Only Raziel or Hijo del Signo make sense as possible Dragon Lee opponents, and Raziel would probably do pretty well.
