5) Último Guerrero b Mistico
Ultimo Guerrero took 1/3. Mistico was beat up enough to receive medical help at the end of the first fall. Crowd was very into the match. UG won clean with the Guerrero Special.
Arena Coliseo Guadalajara didn’t seem to be seating people in the upper level (the usually vacant white seats), but the lower level seems completely full by the time the main event came along. Surprised by the finish.
Over in Arena Coliseo Monterrey, the scheduled Brazo de Plata & Maximo vs Simbolo & Big Neurosis match became Shocker & Simbolo vs Porky & Neurosis because Maximo was in Arena Coliseo DF. The scheduled Atlantis & Blue Panther vs Rey Hechicero & Caifan had Sagrado in Atlantis’ spot because he was over in El Paso. In Arena Solidardad, Golden Magic missed the main event because he was working in Arena Aficion. It often seems like a lot of no-shows are due to the lack of communication and being double booked, not just injuries or malice.

“Surprised by the finish.”
Oh you poor poor poor naive man.
@Rob: Hey, no, there’s just so many different ways to be cynical about CMLL.
