CMLL (SUN) 10/12/2014 Arena México
1) Bengala & Star Jr. b Cholo & Inquisidor
Tecnicos took 1/3
2) Amapola, La Seductora, Zeuxis b Estrellita, Princesa Sugehit, Skadi
Rudas took 2/3. Amapola submitted Estrellita for the win.
3) Boby Zavala, Puma, Tiger b Cachorro, Pegasso, Tritón
Rudos took 1/3 in a good match.
4) Astral © b Eléctrico [CMLL MINI]
Electrico grabbed Triton to be his second. Astral had Star Jr. as his second (but he showed up late.) Astral took falls 2/3 to keep the title in a great match, probably the best possible match between the two. Astral’s first defense.
5) Atlantis, Blue Panther, Super Porky b Rey Bucanero, Terrible, Vangellys
Tecnicos took 2/3
6) Diamante Azul, Marco Corleone, Máscara Dorada DQ Felino, Negro Casas, Shocker
Straight falls, Shocker fouling Azul in the second. Azul challenged Shocker to a (non-title) match next week.
Astral versus Electrico is worth going out of your way to see and the tercera was fun too. Women’s match wasn’t bad. Rest of the show was useless.
CMLL (SUN) 10/12/2014 Arena Coliseo Guadalajara [@acogdl]
1) Dr. Frezzer b Satara
2) Demonio Rojo & El Yaqui b El Brillante & Virgo
Rudos took 1/3.
3) Magnum b Sky Kid
4) Acertijo, Évola, Jocker b Exterminador, Javier Cruz Jr., Leo
Rudos took 2/3, Acertijo sneaking in a foul on Leo.
5) Dalys & Tiffany b Goya Kong & Marcela
Rudas took 2/3, cheating to win.
6) Mephisto © b Valiente [MEX LH]
Mephisto won in a what was said to be a excellent 30 minute match (though the Twitter timestamps says it was c1oser to 20.) Ninth defense, third straight against Valiente.
Probably the same Mephisto/Valiente match they had in Arena Mexico, though it’s nice to think of them continually getting better at it.
Lucha Underground announced Blue Demon vs Chavo Guerrero Jr., Drago vs King Cuerno in a falls count anywhere match, and a world title match for the double taping on Saturday.
Black Terry Jr. has photos of the monthly show at the Toy Museum. Solar/Negro Navarro was said to be excellent by people who’ve seen a lot of them.
LuchaWorld has KrisZ’s news update and the latest LuchaWorld podcast.
This week’s Super Libre had el Faraon as guest.
Segunda Caida reviews this week’s Uprising Lucha Libre show with a good Oliver John vs Blue Demon Jr.
The Planet Lucha has video of the ChilangaMask press conference for their upcoming show in Monterrey in one two three parts. You’re holding the phone the wrong way!
A Halloween Queretaro show includes a main event where a Porro will likely lose his hair and a Black Warrior sighting. Crazy Boy being here reminds me to bring up that Crazy Boy hasn’t been on AAA TV since this spring. With Joe Lider joining the Perros del Mal, the Mexican Powers are basically Nino Hambruguesa and no one else.
The Kriminal Boys are the sixth team added to the Cara Lucha tagteam tournament.
Lucha Libre in Japan
10/12 NOAH: Daisuke Harada (C) b Super Crazy [GHC JR] – 5th defense. Pesadilla’s team won on the undercard. Super Crazy and Pesadilla are still on the upcoming tour, even though it’s a heavyweight tag tournament.
10/12 Wrestle-1/TNA: Andy Wu & El Hijo Del Pantera b Jiro Kuroshio & Yusuke Kodama – this aired on the PPV and should turn in the usual places if you want to check in on Hijo del Pantera.
Lineup
CMLL (SUN) 10/19/2014 Arena Coliseo
1) Bam Bam, Fantasy, Último Dragoncito vs Pequeño Nitro, Pequeño Olímpico, Pequeño Universo 2000
2) Dragon Lee, Mr. Cacao, Tritón vs Misterioso Jr., Sagrado, Skándalo
3) Amapola, Estrellita, Goya Kong, Marcela, Princesa Sugehit vs Dalys, Dark Angel, Makoto, Narumiya, Zeuxis [cibernetico]
Mexico vs the World
4) Atlantis, Máscara Dorada, Super Porky vs Ephesto, Kráneo, Mephisto
5) Diamante Azul vs Shocker
Women’s Mexico vs the World cibernetico is best chance for a good match on this show. I don’t know if that’s a good thing.
Azul vs Shocker is non-title. Eh.
Mr. Cacao exists here only to feud with Arkangel, Arkangel is not in this match – is Arkangel hurt? or just randomness.
CMLL (SUN) 10/19/2014 Arena Coliseo Guadalajara
1) Meteoro vs Relampago Azul
2) Índigo vs Furia Nazi
3) Sky Kid & Smaker vs Mr. Trueno & Rey Trueno
4) Goya Kong vs Tiffany
5) Javier Cruz Jr. vs Acertijo [hair]
6) La Sombra & Omar Brunetti vs Mr. Águila & Sádico and Gallo & Titán and Cavernario & Ráfaga
Main event is a DF guy with a local guy tag tournament.
Acertijo and Javier have been facing for three weeks and their feud has only been noticed by the Guadalajara Twitter today, so of course it’s time for the tag match.
Goya probably can’t be in two places at once. Would assume the Guadalajara stuff is planned weeks ahead of time and someone just got the idea for cibernetico in Arena Coliseo. They probably should make the sub there.
XMW (SAT) 11/01/2014 Salón Citlalli, Ecatepec de Morelos, Estado de México
1) Dollar, Flama Negra, Legendario vs Matrix, Medieval, Power
2) Fly Star & Toxin Boy vs Angel Azul & Karateka and Obscuro & Terremoto and Chica Ye-Ye & Demasiado
3) Centvrión, Emperador Azteca, Fulgor, Fulgor II, Metaleon vs Cronos, Fly Metalik, Herodes Jr., Mixus, Mr. Leo
4) Ludark Shaitan vs Felina Metalica [FUSION KAWAI]
5) Yoruba vs Tornado [XMW LH]
6) Belial vs Impulso, Fly Warrior, Arez, Low Rider, Guason [PDM LH]
7) Wotan vs Necro Butcher, Chuy Martinez, Hell Spawn, Core
Should be a crazy show and have so many dives off that ledge (if it’s still there.) Tercera is IWRG vs XMW with guys who are not quite in IWRG any more.
