CMLL (TUE) 10/29 Arena Mexico [CMLL, CMLL Gaceta]
1) Leono & Robin b Apocalipsis & Ramstein
2) Aéreo, Bam Bam, Último Dragoncito b Pequeño Nitro, Pequeño Olímpico, Pequeño Warrior
Bam Bam actually appeared. Warrior wore his Psicosis mask for some (no) reason. Tecnicos took 1/3.
3) Fuego, Pegasso, Sagrado DQ Boby Zavala, Sangre Azteca, Virus
Pegasso surprised Virus with a cradle in the first, Virus fouled Pegasso in the second.
4) Amapola b Estrellita [lightning]
Amapola used the ropes to beat Estrellita.
5) Atlantis, Delta, Guerrero Maya Jr. b Dragón Rojo Jr., Pólvora, Rey Escorpión
Tecnicos took 2/3, Atlantis getting the win.
6) La Sombra, Máscara Dorada, Super Porky b Morphosis, Mr. Águila, Volador Jr.
Porky splash for the win.

Attendance was very low – saw a guess of 500 people. On the other hand, a Pegasso/Virus feud.

CMLL (TUE) 10/29/2013 Arena Coliseo Guadalajara [Informador]
1) Metatrón & Virgo b Magnum & Ráfaga
Tecnicos took 1/3.
2) Disturbio, Mr. Trueno, Rey Trueno b Camaleón, Magnus, Sky Kid
Rudos took 2/3, Rey Trueno beating Sky Kid
3) Gallo, Smaker, Tritón b Felino, Puma, Tiger
Cats had Zacarias to counter Gallito. Tecnicos took 1/3, Triton pinning Tiger and Puma beating Smaker. A man proposed to his girlfriend after the match; she said yes.
4) Ángel de Oro, Rey Cometa, Stuka Jr. b Misterioso Jr., Namajague, Shigeo Okumura
Tecnicos took 2/3, Angel de Oro beating Misterioso twice.
5) Blue Panther, La Máscara, Rush DQ Tama Tonga, Terrible, Vangellys
Blue Panther replaced Marco Corleone. Tecnicos took 2/3, the last by excessive violence (Tama hit the referee.)

Excessive violence is usually part of a specific sequence, but there’s no feud hinted at in the results. Probably just more TRT vs Rush. (Or maybe the tag title match ends up here?)

AAA announced Mesias will face AJ Styles for the TNA Heavyweight Championship this Sunday in Tonala. It’s not surprising Mesias was the pick. Social media comments seemed to be going more for Fenix or Daga. Mesias wasn’t booked on the card already. This makes it a six match card, which means the taping will air over two weeks – though it was always going to have to be that way, because they’re off next weekend. Hmm.

Black Terry Jr. has highlights of Solar & Villano IV vs Black Terry & Negro Navarro.

LuchaWorld has Alfredo smartly writing about Hijo del Fantasma’s jump.

CMLL Gaceta writes once more about Oro.

AAA has posted the first part of their interview with Cibernetico.

There’s a special holiday altar to lucha libre in San Luis Potosi.

DJ Spectro looks back at Blackman and the end of Sangre Fria & Chicano Power’s mask.

La Parka visited children in the hospital.

Lineups

CMLL (MON) 11/04/2013 Arena Puebla
1) Meyer & Tigre Rojo Jr. vs Guerrero Negro Jr. & Herodes Jr.
2) Leono, Robin, Tigre Rojo vs Fuerza Chicana, Inquisidor, Siki Ozama Jr.
3) Marcela vs Dalys [CMLL WOMEN]
Tenth defense for Marcela
4) Máximo & Super Porky vs Felino & Puma
5) La Máscara, Rush, Vangellys vs Negro Casas, Shocker, Terrible [Relevos Increíbles]
6) La Sombra vs Volador Jr.

Sombra and Volador, again.

Seems like Shocker is picking up Marco Corleone’s matches, which will make it tougher when someone takes Shocker’s spot.

IWL (SAT) 12/14/2013 Auditorio Municipal de Tampico
1) La Heroína, La Sádica, Sahori, Star Fire vs Anubis, Baby Hanger, Guerrera Negra, Princesa Metalica
2) Arkanos, Medics I, Medics III, Shadow vs ATM, ATM Gold, ATM Silver, ATM Super and Iron Boy, Loco Castillo, Luminoso, Mecanico Infernal
3) Loco Max, Tony Rivera, Zumbido vs Bronco, Peligro, Sádico and Freelance, Pantera I, Suicida
4) Ángel o Demonio, León Rojo, Ovett, Perico vs Aeroboy, Demente Extreme, Hormiga, Violento Jack [IWL ATOMICOS]
Porros are champions
5) Carta Brava Jr. (IWL), Cerebro Negro, Fantasma de la Ópera vs Súper Muñeco, Súper Pinocho, Súper Ratón [WWA TRIOS, Captains Hair, Captains mask]
6) Pirata Morgan vs LA Park, Dr. Wagner Jr., Canek [IWL CHAMP]
Dr. Wagner is champ?

There’s no word to this extent, but it looks like the Gimnasio Juan de la Barrera show for this day has been moved to Tampico.  It’s a lot of the same guys and main matches (though not all of them.) I’m unsure which IWL championship is on the line in the main event, but I think it’s the one Wagner holds. The previous “all three vs all three” apuesta match is now a captain’s apuesta match, so either Super Muneco’s mask or (probably) Fantasma de la Opera’s hair will be on the line and I think you can figure that one out. The poster has a picture of all the Porros with the Atomicos belts and I still have no idea how that works.

11/15 AAA TV Lineup (Queretaro)

AAA TV (FRI) 11/15/2013 Auditorio General José María Arteaga, Querétaro, Querétaro
1) Faby Apache, Jennifer Blake, Pimpinela Escarlata vs Mamba, Mary Apache, Taya Valkyrie
2) Crazy Boy, Joe Lider, Niño Hamburguesa vs Eterno, Juventud Guerrera, Steve Pain
3) Angélico, Australian Suicide, Jack Evans vs Daga, Hijo de Pirata Morgan, Pentagón Jr.
4) Blue Demon Jr., El Mesías, Electroshock vs Hijo del Fantasma, Silver King, Texano Jr.
5) Cibernético, el Hijo del Perro Aguayo, Fénix vs Dark Cuervo, Dark Scoria, Dark Spíritu

Lineup via Lucha Libre Queretaro.

Air Date: 11/23.

A lot of the same people as the Tonala show this week, though mjore direct feuds. Cibernetico, Aguayo and Fenix take on La Secta, the Juvi’s old team means Juvi’s new team for the first and the opener has exoticos instead of minis.

Blue Demon Jr. is listed as returning, but that was the case for Heroes Inmortales too so we’ll see. Since Pain & Eterno are busy with an actual feud (and Carta Brava busy?), Hijo de Pirata Morgan makes a rare non-Naucalpan appearance. He’s been on AAA TV lineups more often than Lolita lately.

AAA ought to be setting up stuff for Guerra de Titanes here (and in Tonala) because they’ll only have two more tapings before Guerra de Titanes. There’s nothing that jumps out. Maybe a title match or two comes out of the semimain?

Next taping hasn’t been announced.
