Dinamo got the surprise win in his debut.

No one could return back to the ring in time after tecnico dives, so this was the second DCOR in three weeks.

Negro Casas replaced Mr. Niebla. Shocker beat Rush, setting up a singles match next week.

Today’s CMLL main event is Terrible, Shocker, Rey Bucanero versus Maximo, Marco Corleone and Valiente. The last luchador is a change; this was originally scheduled to be a rare Rush appearance on Tuesady in Arnea Mexico. Stuka Jr. is added to the card to take Valiente’s spot in the semimain, and Acero replaces Stukita in the minis match. Lightning match is Angel de Oro versus Ripper.

Guadalajara has the Arena Coliseo champions Misterioso & Sagrado taking on the Occidente Tag Team champions Gallo & Esfinge. They’re not going to be combined the two barely useful championships, for this is CMLL, with only the local titles on the line.

No mention, as far as I could tell, of Lucha Underground at the Univison upfront. The second season on Unimas and El Rey remains up on the air, but it doesn’t seem like the hope of moving to a bigger network worked out. Again, it didn’t seem like something that was particularly realistic at this point in time.

Box Y Lucha returned to publishing this past week. Interestingly, it was the box (Mayweather/Pacquiao) which seems to have gotten them to publish an issue. Maybe they’ll do another one this upcoming weekend with Canelo.

LuchaWorld has KrisZ’s news update and this week’s PosterMania.

Black Terry Jr. has highlights of Mamba & Diva Salavje vs the Apaches with Taya as ref and Black Mamba wrestling in an earlier six way match.

SuperLuchas looks back at Babe Face vs Gran Hamada.

Pequeno Joker took Brole Extreme’s hair in Puebla.

Solar says he has the holds to beat Alberto, Myzteziz and Rey Jr.

Chiapas referee Ardilla Voladora passed away.

IWRG’s back after mysteriously taking a week off and not airing a new TV episode in a couple weeks. This poster is missing the AYM logo – looking back, it seems like that’s been missing the 05/03 show. Not a good sign.

CMLL (MON) 05/18/2015 Arena Puebla
1) Leono & Sensei vs Rey Apocalipsis & Toro Bill Jr.
2) Black Tiger, Lestat, Starman vs Arkángel de la Muerte, Disturbio, Furia Chicana
3) Estrellita, Goya Kong, Marcela vs Amapola, Reyna Isis, Tiffany
4) Ángel de Oro, Stigma, Titán vs Hechicero, Morphosis, Ripper
5) La Máscara, La Sombra, Marco Corleone vs Rey Escorpión, Terrible, Vangellys
6) Rush vs Shocker

All the Ingobernables on one show, which is probably bad news for Shocker. This would be a great build for an atomicos if CMLL did atomicos. Shocker has never beaten Rush in a singles match: they’ve had four other ones, including 2 in Puebla, and Rush has won every time.

Reyna Isis would make her debut here too; seems like she might be picking up regular bookings going forward, maybe because Comandante is in Japan.

Segunda would be Furia Chicana’s first appearance here since 2010, and that was a one off. He hasn’t been a regular since 2008.
