08/20: Accion, magazine covers

Accion highlights were done by Jorge Pietrasanta, and I have no idea who that is.

CMLL: Main event. Hey, it’s Latin Lover. Perro’s low blow was quite violent. Dos tried to break up the pin by stomping the referee (instead, of say, stomping the pin!), but no luck.

AAA: Zorro, Gronda, La Parka Jr. vs Muerte, Electro and Chessman from Morelia (08/06). This is the first I’ve actually seen of the Zorro mask,a nd it looks quite odd. Muerte gets in a blatant low blow, Copetes coutns the pin, but Tirnates beats him to the arm raise and so there’s a DQ.

Guess what’s on everyone’s cover this week?
– Box Y Lucha #2780 has Latin Lover, new Perro del Mal
– Luchas 2000 #331 has Latin Lover, new Perro del Mal
– Super Luchas #175 has Latin Lover, new Perro del Mal (more from Super Luchas here – Tony Salazar uses Vista?)

Guerreros del Ring appears to do their covers shots weeks ahead of time. But I think they might try to change this week.

Latin Lover’s bio is still up on Triple A’s website, but they don’t move that fast. If it’s up a month from now, I’d only be slightly surprised.

  1. I’m fairly (say, 95%) certain that Jorge is one of the two new CMLL announcers along with Magadan and Miguel, with Morales having seemingly fallen off the face of the earth.

    They should stick to futbol, that’s all I’ll say.

  2. well when i was in mexico they did had two new announcer but they were young and they barly talk during the CMLL shows and im not sure y morales hasnt shown up without him Lucha Libre isnt the same in my opinion

  3. The most I can turn up on Google is Jorge’s a sports guy on radio, and may work with AAA’s Arturo Rivera.

    I wonder why they just didn’t bring over the CAN52 guy? Not that I think they’re particularlly great.

  4. Is that really zorro under that mask? I thought they just put zorro in a mask because the real zorro is injured or something.

  5. that is the real zorro,he has the mask cuz he doesnt want the fans to see him with a shaved head.but next week AAA show they will unmask him during his match and he will be bloody

  6. that is the real zorro,he has the mask cuz he doesnt want the fans to see him with a shaved head.but next week AAA show they will unmask him during his match and he will be bloody

  7. I’ve just started tuning out the new announcers. They seem very robotic and have less charisma than Electro Shock. I miss Morales being funny.
