CMLL (TUE) 09/04/2012 Arena Mexico [CMLL, Kaiser Sports (rest), Kaiser Sports (title)]
1) Bobby Zavala & Ramstein b Camaleón & Robin
Ramstein replaced Disturbio.
2) Cancerbero, Hijo del Signo, Raziel b Hombre Bala Jr., Stigma, Super Halcon Jr.
Stigma replaced Starman. Rudos took 2/3.
3) Virus b Triton [lightning]
Triton missed a dive to the outside very early and hit the barricade instead. Virus controlled from there and won with a casita in 6:30.
4) Morphosis, Olímpico, Psicosis b Delta, Guerrero Maya Jr., Rey Cometa
Rey Cometa replaced Stuka as mention by CMLL’s preview. Rudos took 2/3, Psicosis sneaking in a foul on Maya.
5) Titán b Pólvora [MEX WELTER]
Moved to the semimain. As always, Inquisdior was Polvora’s second and Triton was Titan’s second. Polvora came in as champ and took the first with the Super Polvora Driver. Titan won second with a tornillo and the third with the Titan Special to win the championship.
6) Ángel de Oro, Diamante, Mistico b Ephesto, Mephisto, Misterioso Jr.
Moved to the main event. Diamante replaced Valiente in the main event, as mentioned by CMLL Gaceta’s preview. Tecnicos took 2/3.

(Results corrected)

Titan credits the support of the fans, who were cheering for the tecnico more than they usually do, for being a difference maker. Titan said he gave 100% effort, but the fans gave another 100% effort cheering him, so 200% was just enough to be Polvora.

Guerrero Maya is about the right level for Psicosis to have a credible feud. I’d be perfectly content with those two replacing Rey Cometa and Puma King as the months long midcard rivalry.

A second consecutive show with four subs. They knew about all of them before the show. As mentioned, CMLL’s preview mentioned two of the subs without acknowledging them as replacements. It’s a two hour bus ride from Puebla on a good day, Stigma had to been alerted that  he was needed in advance as well. Disturbio was double booked in Guadalajara.

Terrible beat Shocker in Guadalajara.
