Atlantis earns another title match, cage match in Guadalajara?

Fuego

CMLL (SUN) 12/13/2015 Arena Coliseo Guadalajara [CMLL]
1) Quca b Capitan Cobra
Quca may be spelled “Cuca” now.
2) Mercenario & Mr. Cobra b Ángel Aéreo & Rey Halcón
Mr. Cobra replaced Mr. Brisa
3) León Blanco, Metatrón, Nautilius b El Chakal, Furia Roja, Sádico
Furia Roja replaced Evola.
4) El Alteño, El Yaqui, Vaquero Jr. DQ Carlos Rogi, Exterminador, Mr. Apolo
Rudos took the first, then DQed in the second for the excessive violence. Vaquero had Exterminador in a submission at the end went Sadico & Chakal ran in, then Xavier Cruz and Nube Roja made the save. Challenges all around, cage match seems to be coming.
5) Mr. Niebla, Mr. Trueno, Negro Casas b Delta, Gallo, Stuka Jr.
Casas & Niebla beat Stuka & Delta.

Cage matches for everyone. I’m assuming Mr. Cobra and Capitan Cobra are the same person, though I guess I should do the research at some point.

8:47. Tecnicos took 2/3, the last when Stigma beat Skandalo, but Skandalo came back in to attack Stigma. Rudos beat up tecnicos after this match.
5) La Máscara, Máximo Sexy, Rush b Felino, Negro Casas, Ripper LA MEJOR LUCHA LIBRE DEL MUNDO EN VIVO 14 DE DICIEMBRE DEL 2015 21:00 HRS (posted by VideosOficialesCMLL)
10:47. Ripper replaced Mr. Niebla. “Tecnicos” took 1/3. Maximo got along better with Negro Casas than his own partners, but beat Casas with the kiss for the win. Rush and Maximo made random challenges before the match.
6) Atlantis b Último Guerrero LA MEJOR LUCHA LIBRE DEL MUNDO EN VIVO 14 DE DICIEMBRE DEL 2015 21:00 HRS (posted by VideosOficialesCMLL)
7:03. Prior to the match, Atlantis noted he demanded a super libre match and a referee besides Tirantes, and neither was was happening. He tried to get Tirantes to leave, but Guerrero attacked him instead to start the match. Atlantis took 2/3, clean, then asked for a title match next week. Ultimo Guerrero accepted.

Not as bad as some of the recent shows, but another rushed show with short unmemorable matches.

Mr. Niebla missing a show is usually his fault. Might not be this time. CMLL usually balances out the bookings closely, so Niebla being a fill in on Friday might mean he got tonight off (and CMLL just didn’t feel the need to mention it.) Ripper as a fill in makes sense for the same reasons – he’s now not working this upcoming Friday.

Thunder is also not working on Friday, and the card has changed around a bit. Super Parka is now in the main event to face Negro Casas, and the Maximo/Kamaitachi feud is moved into the semifinal. (Terrible and Atlantis are shuffled around, Valiente is added, and Kraneo and Ripper are off the show.) CMLL pushing both the Casas/Parka and Maximo/Kamaitachi feuds hard on Friday seemed strange – why would they need a third and fourth apuesta match set up right now – but may make more sense if Thunder/Ultimo Guerrero is no longer happening for whatever reason. That apuesta match and the 01/01 show were not mentioned on last night’s Puebla broadcast show at all, though Thunder was shown as part of a video package of giants who had wrestled in Arena Mexico.

Today’s CMLL Arena Mexico show has Dragon Rojo, Rey Bucanero and Vangellys versus Mistico, Titan and Stuka Jr., who will also be on the TuriLuchas bus. They’re setting up a Dragon Rojo/Titan, and it’s just a question of they run it next week, or if they save it for the Christmas week. Tonight’s lightning match is Blue Panther Jr. vs Okumura. CMLL posted last week’s Bobby Zavala vs Guerrero Maya Jr. lightning match on YouTube. Guadalajara has Marco Corleone, Super Porky, Volador Jr. vs Euforia, Niebla Roja, Último Guerrero as the main event.

Cibernetico is working the Tuesday Arena Coliseo Monterrey show. That’s not a great show to be working.

Dr. Letal, Nitro, Skandalo were facing Okumura, Kamaitachi and Shiru (maybe the real one, who knows) were having a match on Sunday in Tlahuac when a dog made a run in.

Bobby Zavala won the FILL Heavyweight championship from Arkangel at some point in some location, according to CMLL’s Facebook. I can’t even find a match with them. Maybe more importantly, CMLL’s back to calling him Bobby Zavala. The FULL title is from Chile so maybe Zavala is heading there (and Arkangel was not.)

Lucha Underground announced a t-shirt deal with Pro Wrestling Tees. There’s only a few logo shirts rightnow, but the plan is supposed to be add more, including for characters on the show.

A preview of DTU’s 8th Anniversary show this Saturday.

LuchaWorld has KrisZ’s news update and this week’s Poster-Mania.

Lineups

CMLL (MON) 12/21/2015 Arena Puebla
1) Astro, Meyer, Paris vs Ares, Fuerza Chicana, Guerrero Espacial
2) Asturiano, Eléctrico, Shockercito vs Demus 3:16, Mini Joker, Saurón
3) Espíritu Maligno, Fuego, King Jaguar, Rey Cometa, Stigma vs Canelo Casas, Disturbio, Okumura, Policeman, Skándalo [cibernetico]
4) La Máscara, Marco Corleone, Máximo Sexy vs Felino, Mr. Niebla, Negro Casas
5) Último Guerrero © vs Atlantis [NWA MIDDLE]
third defense for Ultimo Guerrero

Website lists the Welterweight championship, but that’s Volador’s belt. Ultimo Guerrero surely gets the win back, maybe it’ll be more of a draw this time.

Cibernetico combines to two strange midcard feuds, with Lestat being the odd man out. Maybe literally everyone is getting a cage match? I don’t know. Semimain seems to continue that weird story too. First two matches could be OK.
