IWRG, Tama Tonga in CMLL, marathon show
IWRG (THU) 10/10/2013 Arena Naucalpan [IWRG]
1) Araña de Plata Jr. b Seiya
One fall.
2) Fulgor I & Fulgor II b Alfa & Omega
3) Alan Extreme, Canis Lupus, Fresero Jr. b Centvrión, Emperador Azteca, Golden Magic
4) Trauma I, Trauma II, Veneno DQ Oficial 911, Oficial AK47, Oficial Fierro
Tecnicos took 1/3. 911 faked a foul in the second, Trauma II in the third.
5) Hijo de Pirata Morgan, Pirata Morgan, Toscano b El Hijo del Medico Asesino, Hijo del Dr. Wagner Jr., X-Fly
Tecnicos took 1/3.
There are very limited pictures, but I did not see a TV camera in any of them. That would mean Sunday is the taping. Again, Sunday’s show is a CMLL/Furor production, next Thursday is an AAA/RCH show, so IWRG proper is not back until 10/20.
Today’s CMLL show is based around the returning Rey Bucanero & Tama Tonga, teaming up with Terrible against La Sombra, Marco Corleone and tag challenger Rush. Tonga arrived a couple days ago, and said he and Bucanero are on the same page and he doesn’t care who challenges for the tag team titles. In the undercard, Brazo de Plata and Rey Escorpion face off one more time before their hair match, Dallys starts on the ruda side, and Titan versus Averno appears to be the TV main event.
Turnout might be down from usual; the Mexican National Futbol Team has a critical home game versus Panama which starts the same time as this show. CMLL is doing a 2×1 deal for anyone with a Mexican team jersey – you have to wear a green jersey, and you get a seat in the green section. That might be a cool visual, though I’d think if you were excited enough to wear a jersey you’d probably rather go watch the game.
The Mexico City Box Y Lucha Libre commission is sponsoring an eight hour marathon show, where the price of ticket is 50 pesos worth of hurricane relief donation. CMLL, IWRG, AULL and anyone other promotion they can find will be participating. I would so go to this show, start to get bored around hour four, then get way into it around hour six.
The fourth episode of DTU TV is up.

10/10 AAA TV Results (Tlahuelilpan)
AAA TV (THU) 10/10/2013 Plaza de Toros Jorge Guiterrez, Tlahuelilpan, Hidalgo [Black Terry Jr. (Flickr), Lucha Libre AAA]
1) Dinastía, Faby Apache, Pimpinela Escarlata b Mamba, Mini Charly Manson, Taya Valkyrie
Faby submitted Taya. Cuervo was hanging out near ringside during the match and attacked her after. Faby fought him off but the rest of La Secta attacked. Cuervo asked Taya if she’d like to take Faby’s hair, and suggested they challenge for the mixed tag titles.
2) Angélico, Australian Suicide, Jack Evans b Daga, Psicosis, Steve Pain
Moved to the second. Australian Suicide was the mystery person, as usual, and was welcomed to AAA by taking Psicosis staples to the chest. Gringos hit their usual move on Steve Pain for the win.
3) Fénix & Octagón b Eterno & Pentagón Jr.
Moved to the third. Fenix landed a tornillo on Eterno.
4) Cuervo, Espíritu, Ozz, Scoria b Cibernético, El Mesías, Electroshock, La Parka
La Secta beat Cibernetico via foul after Faby ran in (and was no help.)
5) Monsther Clown, Murder Clown, Psycho Clown b Máscara Año 2000 Jr., Silver King, Texano Jr. [cage]
Made a cage match. Order of escape was Monsther, Silver, Murder, Mascara and Psycho gave Texano a Canadian Destroyer to escape. La Secta attacked Psycho Circus after the match and challenged for the trios titles.
Air Date: 10/19. This looks like a one show taping, which usually means only the top 4 air on UTDN – but they ran that angle in the opener so maybe they find a way to air all five? Or maybe one of 2/3 gets cut.
La Secta running over everyone on this taping (though I’d be surprised if the semiman wasn’t 75% the tecnicos getting all their usual spots, because that’s just the way they’re going to work these matches.) AAA continues to build to Guerra de Titanes, which is great except for Heroes Inmortales being next Friday.
Happy to see a new direction for Psycho Circus. It does seem to imply something about the title match next Friday.
Rare sighting of the six sided ring! Not sure if they needed it just for the cage or just pure randomness.
10/12-14 lucha times
box.
Todo x el Todo this week, if you want a different reason to talk about Hijo del Santo.
== AAA ==
AAA-Televisa: First and probably only week from SLP. Which makes it easy to figure – top 2 (three way tag, Texano vs Psycho Clown) air on Televisa, with the other three way match and the Gringos trios added on UTDN/Regional.
== CMLL ==
FOX: Pesta Negra vs Atlantis, La Mascara, Marco and Estetas versus Avernos.
52MX: Guerrero Maya Jr. vs Virus! I am so thrilled I get to watch this again. Also something with the Guerreros and Atlantis that went about five minutes.
C3: Tag Team tournament final, Rey Cometa vs Namajague feud
TVC Deportes (Puebla): main event is Angel de Oro, La Mascara, La Sombra vs Ephesto, Mephisto, Ultimo Guerrero, but the match you care about is the maestros trios.
En Busca de un Idolo: I was a week behind. Vangellys vs Stuka and Valiente vs Fuego in the second matches of the second round
Terra: Titan vs Averno on Friday, Atlantis/La Mascara/Titan vs Ephesto/Mephisto/Volador
== Other ==
IWRG-AYM Sports: No telling which show they’ll air, but Thursday was an IWRG show and Sunday is a CMLL one.
Noches de Coliseo: Probably the Kato Kung Lee tribute show.
IWL: If it airs, it should be more of the 09/14 show (WWA Trios, Porros vs DTU, IWL Heavyweight)
DTU: I figured out this is tough to figure out when you’re writing it while the show is on the air. They should be wrapped up with the Arena Solidaridad show, so maybe they’ll be on to the 09/19 Arena Cuatro Caminos taping.
TxT: first part of the Leon taping, which usually means the first three matches. A Bobby Lee & Rayman vs Heddi Karaoui & Zumbi tag match as a TV main event.
