Puebla, wrestle mass, Cometa

Porra Fresa’s report on Monday’s Puebla show does confirm that Niebla made the show (hooray) but Mascarita Dorada did not. Pequeno Halcon filled in for him, which means they knew about it far in advance not to have to use a local. Guerrero Maya/Delta was said to be the best match of the show.

The annual mass for deceased luchadors at Arena Coliseo was held today. Fabian el Gitano was to be honored.

Rey Cometa gave a professional mask to a fan. I know we’re all disappointed he hasn’t won in Forjando un Idolo, but things like this article (just existing to make Cometa seem like a bigger star) and Cometa being one of the guys sent to Brazil shows CMLL is behind him a bit, which is much more than used to be.

CMLL luchadors visited a children’s hospital. Blue Demon Jr. is doing the same thing.

DJ Spectro looks back at the 1978 Arena Mexico Anniversary show, with Harley Race defending the NWA Heavyweight Title vs Halcon Ortiz (father of Super Halcon Jr.) I never knew the heavyweight title was defended in Arena Mexico.

Box y Lucha #3023 has Ultimo Guerrero vs Goto on the cover.
