Joe Lider wins a hair, Guerreros win in Coliseo, Sombra defeats Euforia

DTU (SAT) 11/09/2013 Arena Xalapa [Arena XalapaDTU]
6) Joe Lider b Ángel o Demonio [hair]

No results from the rest of the show, but it should air on TVC Deportes. Angel O Demonio’s hair looks buzzed in the Xalapa picture.

Tercera Caida aired today. Besides a ton of highlights, they had an extended preview of the ChilagnaMask card. I haven’t thought about a lot since the full card was announced, but the show reminded me how fun the card looks. Negro Navarro versus Valiente! Solar versus Black Terry! Many other internet favorites!

CMLL (SUN) 11/10/2013 Arena Coliseo
1) Aéreo & Stukita b Pequeño Violencia & Último Dragoncito
Draongcito subbed for Universo 2000, wearing his street clothes and a mask, and did not want to play rudo or help Pequeno Violencia. Tecnicos won 2/3 in a below average match. Crowd was not into the match
2) Magnus, Metatrón, Starman DQ Camorra, Cancerbero, Raziel
Tecnicos took straight falls. Camorra feuded with Starman for no particular reason and took his mask for the DQ.
3) Fuego, Rey Cometa, Stuka Jr. b Namajague, Sangre Azteca, Shigeo Okumura
tecnicos took falls 2/3
4) Delta b Misterioso Jr. [lightning]
Delta won via legs trapped campana in 8:27.
5) Atlantis, Blue Panther, Super Porky b Niebla Roja, Pierroth, Tama Tonga
Pierrothito introduced Pierroth, making it very strange he wasn’t the sub in the first match. Tecnicos took 2/3.
6) Gran Guerrero, Mr. Niebla, Último Guerrero b Máscara Dorada, Mistico, Valiente
Rudos took 1/3.

Tedious, lackluster show.

Next week’s show is back in Arena Mexico. Announcers were heavily promoting Tuesday’s show. Not only does it has the 2×1 ticket special (for rows 11 and back) they’ve been pushing all week, but buying a ticket to that show gets you free into the bodybuilding contest next week. Last Tuesday’s attendance was dreadful, but i’m sure CMLL knows by now that 1 ticket deal isn’t going to fix that (or the last 50 would’ve done it); wonder if there’s something else going on here.

I believe there are changes to Friday’s card that haven’t been announced yet. Negro Casas will move to the semimain to replace Pierroth, and the rudo main event side will be a TRT trio (not sure what members.) This hasn’t been confirmed yet but CMLL was doing off TV promos with those as the top two matches today.

CMLL (SUN) 11/10/2013 Arena Coliseo Guadalajara [@acogdl]
1) Explosivo & Índigo b El Tapatío & Satara
tecnicos took 2/3.
2) Idolo, Javier Cruz Jr., Virgo b Ángel del Mal, El Yaqui, Jocker
tecnicos took 1/3
3) Esfinge, Leo, Virgo b Demonio Rojo, Mr. Trueno, Rey Trueno
tecnicos took 2/3
4) Psicosis, Ráfaga, Vangelis b Black Metal, Sagrado, Titán
rudos took 1/3
5) La Sombra b Euforia
Euforia took fall 1 and Sombra took fall 2 in quick falls, then Sombra won a long third fall.

Sombra and Euforia started out as rivals, so that was probably a pretty good match.
