CMLL (FRI) 01/16/2015 Arena Coliseo Guadalajara [Fuego en el Ring]
1) El Tapatío & Frezzer b Furia Roja & Thunder Boy
Frezzer seems to have lost his doctorate.
2) Évola, Infierno, Ráfaga b El Divino, Javier Cruz Jr., Virgo
Rafaga powerbombed Virgo, who was stretchered out.
3) Great Eku, Pitbull I, Pitbull II b Flash I, Flash II, Gallo
Great Eku, declaring he actually started in Bayamon, Puerto Rico, replaced Pierroth. Eku planched Gallo for the win.
4) Blue Panther b Satánico
Blue Panther submitted Satnaico in a maestros match. Mutual respect after the match.
5) Misterioso Jr., Pierroth, Sagrado b Delta, Esfinge, Guerrero Maya Jr.
Pierroth replaced Niebla Roja. Rudos took 1/3.
Eku is an Jalisco indy luchador, so he was probably just a replacement – though he may also really be from Puerto Rico for all I know.
CMLL (MON) 01/19/2015 Arena Puebla [Fuego en el Ring, Peridoico Enfoque, Peridoico Enfoque (photos)]
1) Black Tiger & Lestat b Fuerza Chicana & King Jaguar
2) Demus 3:16, Pequeño Nitro, Saurón b Astral, Asturiano, Eléctrico
Demus defeated Astral to set up a title match next week.
3) Hombre sin Nombre, Morphosis, Olímpico b Delta, Fuego, Guerrero Maya Jr.
4) Zeuxis b Estrellita © [MEX WOMEN]
Zeuxis submitted Estrellita in the third fall to win the title. She’s the Estrellita’s falls on her 6th defense (this match had been canceled twice before.) Zeuxis is the 18th modern champion.
5) Blue Panther, La Máscara, Super Porky DQ Rey Bucanero, Terrible, Thunder
Thunder unmasked Mascara.
6) Euforia, Niebla Roja, Shocker DQ Marco Corleone, Máximo, Valiente
Shocker faked a foul, as Maximo did the week before.
Princesa Sugehit changed sides and Princesa Blanca retired, so the people in charge of the women in CMLL felt they needed to elevate another ruda. (Same deal as the Anniversary cibernetico win.) Considering the other charges, Zeuxis is a pretty good pick.
Zeuxis and Estrellita meet again today in CMLL’s lightning match. Estrellita mentioned she was still have neck problems on Twitter. Maybe that’s a tecnico covering for a loss, or maybe Zeuxis is going to get two wins and Estrellita is going to take some more time off.
Mr. Niebla’s off Friday’s Guadalajara card (Gran Guerrero in) and Saturday Coliseo (Mephisto). No one else from FantasticaMania appears to be off the lineups; judging from updates, they’re getting back in Mexico later today. A CMLL story on Mistico’s return got picked up in a ton of papers and Mistico was hyping his return today, so they’re not rethinking that at all. He can hide more in a trios match.
Arena Mexico tonight has a Blue Panther, Dragon Rojo Jr., Titan vs Euforia, Hechicero, Niebla Roja as the main event. Marco Corleone vs Shocker headline in Guadaljaara.
The preview CMLL sent to Terra of Tuesday’s card has Starman in for Dragon Lee. CMLL updated their own website after and Dragon Lee’s still in there. Both have Stuka replacing Dragon Lee on Sunday. I’m concerned Dragon Lee’s mystery rival from Japan has caught up to him.

CMLL Stellar Moments of the week. Comando Caribeno are #1 on the top 10 list. Cancerbero is #10. Reading that list, it’s really clear how absolutely nothing happened this week in CMLL.
Polvora had the toughest time getting Cavernario out of Japan.
Lineup
CMLL (MON) 01/26/2015 Arena Puebla
1) Lestat, Milenium, Tigre Rojo Jr. vs Canelo Casas, Espanto Jr., Hijo del Signo
2) Astral © vs Demus 3:16 [CMLL MINI]
Second defense for Astral. Demus’ first shot at the title in 6 years.
3) Delta, Guerrero Maya Jr., Stigma vs Hechicero, Hombre sin Nombre, Okumura
4) Atlantis, Dragón Rojo Jr., Volador Jr. vs Kráneo, Morphosis, Olímpico
5) Máximo vs Shocker
6) La Máscara & La Sombra vs Gran Guerrero & Último Guerrero
A surprisingly busy card, with a title match, a special singles match, and a tag main event between normal teams. Opener is even a Puebla vs DF match.
Chilanga Mask (SUN) 02/15/2015 Coliseo Coacalco, Coacalco, Estado de México
1) Herodes Jr. vs Fly Warrior
2) Keira vs La Vaquerita
3) Arez & Impulso vs Pagano
2 v 1
Matches announced so far for the next ChilangaMask show.
indy (SUN) 02/22/2015 Arena Coliseo Monterrey
1) Erika Sotelo, La Enmascarada, Mini Hator vs Alicia, Larry Miranda, Tequilia
2) Galactar vs Demenzía, Gato Fantasma
3) Kaientai, Rico Rodriguez, Silver King Jr. vs Epydemius, Ninja Jr., Silencio
4) Diluvio Negro I & Diluvio Negro II vs Caifan & Nuevo Caifan
listed as Diluvios vs Caifans
5) Hijo del Ninja, Humberto Garza, Ultimo Ninja vs Dr. Wagner Jr., Hijo del Dr. Wagner Jr., Silver King
The Ninjas vs Wagner card that’s been hyped a lot locally and on social media. Silver King Jr. in the third match may be a new one, since Silver King Jr. revealed the previous one was in fact a fraud who was just using the name. I’m sure everything is on the up and up here.
Chilanga Mask (SUN) 03/22/2015 Coliseo Coacalco, Coacalco, Estado de México
1) Trauma I & Trauma II vs Mr. Maldito & The Platino
2) Astro Rey Jr. vs Draego, Dragón Celestial, Electro Boy, Emperador Azteca, Freelance, Mike Segura
3) Guerrero Maya Jr. vs Black Terry vs Rey Hechicero vs Aero Boy
4) Negro Navarro vs Fulgor I
5) Impulso vs Jason Gory
6) Arez, Belial, Keira vs David Starr, JT Dunn, Kimber Lee
This is the second Anniversary show, with people coming in from a bit farther, which probably explains why it’s a little bit farther along.
I’d lost track of how many matches had been announced for this show, so it’s good thing this promotion has a website. Kimber Lee is a women wh’s graduated to the CHIKARA tier of US indy promotions in the last year. I’m totally unfamiliar with Dunn & Star but they appear to be a US easy coast indy tag team.
I thought you had to be Mexican to win a National title? Unless Zuexis is a fake Puerto Rican?
@Flashmagic: She’s got a Puerto Rician mom and Mexican father. (or I got that backwards, but that’s the deal.)
The puebla line ups get better now theres no tv, as the sunday cards get worse… Man I miss puebla! Hope something happens for a tv deal.
That’s great for Zeuxis, hope she gets a few good defences.
@thecubsfan: you are correct.
Hey Cubs, not sure if you caught the snippets of video on Tercera Caida a few months ago, of the Dr. Wagner Jr./ Flamita vs. Pirata Morgan/ Trauma II tag match. Trauma II really made Wagner step up his game, and that was fun to see. It’s like he’s making an effort to have better matches now, and less posing. Hope that’s the Wagner that shows up for the All Elite shows.
Also, very happy for Seuxis. She deserves that big win.
Any chance of Panther v. Satanico showing up?
Good to see Humberto Garza Jr. back. Now Multimedios has to air it.
Close to 0, Phil.
Any idea on how I can see the Chilanga Mask show? I think the card looks really good.
@Edie Frankenstein: You have to be there to see it. Clips will probably be on the +LuchaTV site.
Doesn’t Black Terry Jr record some of the shows? Though you have to wonder what LuchaTV does with all this footage if it doesn’t ever publish it. Seems a waste to me.
@Rah: They have an external hard drive with it all. I saw it. It was like the holy grail. I did not grab it and make a run for it, truly a mistake.
