It’s kind of at the point where I’m afraid to make any more jokes about Mr. Niebla missing shows for the nonzero chance something tragic has happened. Which is a problem because he misses a lot of shows. Maybe he’s in charge of the TV situation too.

Dragon Rojo Jr. seems to be reset back to the being part of the Revolucionarios again. No En Busca de un Idolo made his nice personality fade away, I guess. Or the priority is Ultimo Guerrero and so they needed to add someone back to the Revolucionarios to feud with the Guerreros and Dragon Rojo was the easiest solution.

Saturday’s CMLL Arena Coliseo has a Maximo defending the heavyweight title against Rey Bucanero. Sunday’s Arena Mexico show has Ultimo Guerrero teaming with Felino & Negro Casas against the Sky Team on the Mother’s Day themed show.

Leyenda de Plata is back! For some reason! Right after the Reyes del Aire instead of spreading thing out. The Leyenda de Plata was two ciberneticos and a final last time (end of 2013, start 2014), where Negro Casas beat Titan. It’s presented on the poster as one very random cibernetico. Cavernario returns before the BOSJ after all. Kamaitachi main events two straight week.

Polvora handles the video promo.
