Caristico took 1/3.

Haven’t seen it, but seemed like an ordinary Puebla show with not special. Mistico & Ultimo Guerrero might be the next singles match or they might change their minds twice more as they seem to be doing with more feuds here. Casas is losing all of his matches going into the cage match.

Dark Soul talked post-match, seems to be a local Puebla luchador.

CMLL tonight in Arena Mexico has about a normal card. The main event is now Atlantis, Caristico, and Soberano facing Felino, Forastero, Mr. Niebla. Dragon Lee & La Bestia del Ring were dropped from the match, which is probably not going to be much with Niebla on a Tuesday.

Kraneo, Stuka, and Volcano take on Ephesto, Luciferno, and Templario. They probably should’ve put Templario up in the main when they changed the card around to work with Soberano. Guerrero Maya and Fuego will be in a tecnico versus tecnico lightning match. Maya’s won the previous two times this match was held.

Magia Blanca, Pegasso and Star Jr. face Cancerbero, Raziel and Universo 2000 in the tercera. The segunda has La Seductora, Metalica and Reyna Isis listed as facing La Jarochita, Maligna and Princesa Sugehit. Sugehit is being specifically advertised as returning today, but she was advertised Sunday as well. Retro & Sagnre Imperial open the show against Cholo & Yago. The show will start streaming on CMLL’s YouTube channel at 7:30 pm.

Guadalajara has Mistico, Volador, and Valiente against Cavernario, Cuatrero and Sanson.

Ciber blames Gilbert for the lack of a singles match on Aniversario. He totally would’ve done it had Gilbert stayed out of it. Totally.

Nacion Lucha Libre returns tonight in Cuatitlan. It’s going to be a tough battle: their biggest names (Alberto & LA Park) are not wrestling, whatever benefit the foreign wrestlers provided is now gone and this show was announced on short notice. The card has Hijo de Dos Caras & La Mascara vs Mesias & Jack Evans as the main event. It should start airing this week. They probably need to announce a next show at this one if they’re going to stay on the rails.

Humberto Garza (Ultimo Ninja) faces Angel Garza (Garza Jr.) tonight on WWE’s 205 Live. There’s been speculation for months that this show may be the final episode of 205 Live, with WWE’s schedule changing around next week. It’s still just as unclear if that’ll be happening, but at least the Monterrey cousins get a singles match before whatever’s next.

 

 

Myzteziz may have been cast on Exatlon with Laredo Kid. I’m not able to confirm the rumor going around (seems to have started here) that Myzteziz also started with the show on 09/16. The AAA luchadors have not yet appeared on TV; that show apparently tapes far in advance. Myzteziz missed shows in Ciudad Madero & Arena Lopez Mateos, and seemed to be off the Denver show he was booked for as well. Myzteziz hasn’t been known to be on a show since Laredo Kid was also around and has disappeared from social media; the pieces seem to fit. Exatlon is still among the top shows in Mexico but the ratings have been down this season, luchadors have been big characters in the past seasons, so perhaps the showrunners wanted to add two of them. Like Laredo Kid, this would mean Myzteziz is out of wrestling for an unclear length of time; it might be a few weeks, it may be into 2020.

With Myzteziz out of action and Golden Magic now Octagon Jr., the trios titles are in limbo for a while.

One of the other shows Myzteziz was advertised for was in Denver for Hugo’s Lucha Libre. Jesus Zuniga posted video of the meet & greet. Myzteizz doesn’t appear to be there. Lady Shani, Golden Magic, and Parka Negre are there, which suggest they now have visas to come to the US. AAA hasn’t announced a card for Los Angeles yet, seemingly because they’ve been waiting for those visas.

I don’t have full (or most) results from Pro Wrestling Mexico’s show on Sunday, but the show ending angle was a fight between Vampiro vs Konnan. It was something to think about watching Bandido win a tournament in the US while another Konnan & Vampiro bit was happening in Mexico. Anyway, they teased a singles match but the promos seemed to indicate it’ll be something along the lines of Konnan & Daga vs LA Park & Vampiro.

An AAA TV taping has been locally announced for 11/09 in Torreon. This matches up with the dates +LuchaTV had. AAA has been announcing lineups about a month in advance, so nothing more for a half of month.

A man known as Dr. Wagner was arrested for money laundering and drug trafficking in Italy. It is not the luchador Dr. Wagner or any other member of his family.

Lucha Memes announced a Battle of Puebla tournament and show on 11/03. Makabre is the first name announced. Not sure if this will turn up since the similar Battle of Naucalpan didn’t show up.

Galactico took Indio Cherokee’s hair in Guadalajara. Angel Negro lost his mask to Makabre on a different show in Guadalajara. Angel Negro is Angel Miguel Gaitan, 20 years a wrestler.

+LuchaTV has a new edition of their podcast.
