Rush asking for those thrown drinks finally caught up to him

straight falls, Rush faking a foul from Angel de Oro. Oro loudly demanded a singles match week. Rush accepted and a post match brawl took place.

A much better than usual Tuesday show, with both the lightning match and the fourth match being worth going out of your way to watch. The brawl after the main event went a bit wild.

Rush and Angel de Oro hype a singles match. It would be their first one ever, between two guys who were trios champions together a long time ago. Star Jr. wants a rematch, while Sagrado says already knows he’s better. This seemed like the set-up to a singles rematch but they’ve already got that covered and rarely do twice.

CMLL (TUE) 05/21/2019 Arena Coliseo Guadalajara [CMLL]
1) Magnum, Metatrón, Micro b Capitán Cobra, Difunto, Fúnebre
tecnicos took 2/3
2) Avispa Dorada, Lluvia, Sanely b La Seductora, Reina Isis, Tiffany
tecnicos took 1/3
3) Drone, Fuego, Tritón b Kawato San, Metálico, Olímpico
tecnicos took 1/3
4) Místico, Soberano Jr., Valiente ?? Shocker, Templario, Vangellys
Esfinge replaced Soberano (moved up). Templario replaced Matt Taven. Rudos won fall 1, tecnicos took 2, no third fall finish mentioned.
5) Euforia, Gran Guerrero, Último Guerrero b Carístico, Soberano Jr., Stuka Jr.
Soberano replaced Volador (injury?) Tecnicos took 2/3 to set up a trios title match.

It remains to be seen if Soberano or Volador will be in that trios match. Informa might accidentally be useful if only to scan thru and see if Volador showed up. The rule about putting Euforia & Soberano in the same match seems to be no longer in existence.

Silver King was the cover of Box Y Lucha (#3385) this week. NJPW honored Silver King before their show this morning. The Lucha Libre Guatemala blog has some photos of his time wrestling in that country.

France’s Aigle Blanc will also be wrestling on the 05/28 CMLL show.

WrestleRex on June 13th has Soberano Jr. vs Templario and Bestia 666 & Sam Adonis vs Facade & Super Crazy in Pittsburgh. Tickets go on sale today.

El Hijo del Santo was named cultural ambassador of the IPN university.

Pirata Morgan talked in Monclova about reaching 40 years of wrestling.

A new Box y Lucha commission was opened in Jiutepec, Morelos, hoping to increase participation.

A story on a mask maker in Monterrey. And a lucha libre ring announcer in Dallas.

There was a lecture-discussion on women and exotico wrestlers in lucha libre as the Memory and Tolerance Museum in Mexico City.

Congratulations to The Gladaitores for reaching 13 years of publishing.

recaps

That’s about 12 hours of wrestling. That’s an unhealthy amount of wrestling is what it is. Oh well.

I liked a lot of the AAA TV from this group, especially in Nogales. It does suffer a bit from being TV filler, being the set up to something coming (maybe.) The CMLL versus The Crash felt like the complete feud in one match. It helped by CMLL having no plans but being the definitive match is something I value.
