CMLL on ClaroSports.com: 2015-12-11 

had same reaction to this show

Recapped: 12/11/2015

What happened: Kamaitachi fouled Maximo and challenged him to a hair match, and Maximo accepted for next week. That seems like it’s actually happening. Less certain is a Negro Casas/Super Parka hair match; challenges were made after their own DQ finish, but Parka wanted it tonight while Casas accepted for next week.

The promo for next week revealed Caristico would make his full CMLL return on next Friday night’s show.

Thunder was missing from the main event, three Fridays out form his mask match. No explanation was given.

What was good:  Nothing. Not a think. This was the deadest show full of bad matches in some time. I’m sorry I gave out the link.

Where can I watch it: Don’t! Don’t do this. It’ll be up on my channel but really don’t. Read More

Guadalajara results, Friday night preview

4) Ephesto, Luciferno, Mephisto © b Ángel de Oro, Blue Panther, Stuka Jr. [MEX TRIOS]
2nd defense. Hijos del Infienro took 2/3, the last with Mephisto beating Blue Panther. Money thrown in.
5) Mr. Niebla, Shocker, Último Guerrero b La Máscara, Marco Corleone, Rush
Ultimo Guerrero snuck in a foul on Marco for the win.

CMLL’s Friday night show is main evented is Shocker, Terrible, Ultimo Guerrero versus Thunder, Kraneo, and Ripper, three Fridays out from the Thunder/Ultimo Guerrero mask versus hair match. They’re playing up Ultimo Guerrero’s injury, saying he hasn’t fully recovered and won’t be full strength against Thunder.

The semimain follows up on last week’s title match with Mistico, Rush, and Maximo versus Kamaitachi, Euforia and Ephesto, with the storyline of Kamaitachi blaming Maximo for costing him the Super Lightweight championship by pointing out Dragon Lee’s feet on the ropes. Kamaitachi went as far as challenging Maximo hair versus hair. That’d be a fun match, but one that doesn’t seem likely to happen. There’s no spot for the match to take place any time soon with Christmas and New Year’s Day already full. I’d similarly love to see Super Comando/The Panther both escape the cage and end up doing a direct match on a Three Kings Day show, but it’s unlikely CMLL is going to run three apuesta matches in about two weeks. Tonight’s match should be fun anyway.

The rest of the card has Negro Casas and Super Parka in a lightning match (which should still spill in to something more on one of the two big shows; more likely 01/01), a minis match and a Super Porky appearance. The only person in the Christmas Day cage match on this show is Blue Panther Junior. I’d expect all 12 guys to be on next week’s card – a cibernetico would make sense.

The show will air at 8:30 pm CT on ClaroSports.com. It remains not region blocked, and the countdown timer is already up.

CMLL’s also got an article hyping Caristico & Rush teaming for the first time on Sunday. CMLL’s press department, at least, is treating those shows as if they’re CMLL run with slightly different names. There’s also an interview with Mascara Dorada. He’s been watching CMLL on the internet to keep up on things and says he’s not targeting a specific person on his return, but unnamed people who think are living on a cloud and thinking they own the world.

Rey Horuz & Caristico beat Sharlie Manson & Cibernetico in Arena Queretaro. Attendance looks pretty good here, around 70% full.
