03/09 Lucha Times

FWIW: Daylight Savings time starts on Sunday in the United States and Canada. If you’re in Mexico, it’s still starting the normal time. If you’re elsewhere, post a comment!

AAA on GALA: Latin Lover returns! Billy Boy vs Gran Apache in the 500th AAA Bull Terrier match in the last two years! Other possibly good stuff!

GdR: Since the last time I whined about it, they’ve been starting to take Mexico terceras instead of segundas (Universo don’t work segundas, so last week counts), so I think we’ve getting the Averno/Mephisto/Sangre vs Panther/Maximo/Mascara match instead of the women’s trio. I may be slightly wishcasting. Also, the Leono/Mogur madness.

FSE: I think it’ll be a big man’s semimain and then what looks like a really fun main event: Mistico/Volador/Shocker vs Warrior/Averno/Mephesto

FSE’s listings still say Rey Bucanero vs Damian 666 – Victor pointed this out over on DVDVR earlier this week. Searching…

The only time Rey and Damian have met in Coliseo/Mexico this year was being on opposite sides of the trios match that aired last week. So I think it’s a typo and I’m going to ignore it, but if I’m missing something, let me know.

AAA in Mexico: Hell Brothers vs the Vipers, WSX cameos

CMLL in Mexico:
03/04 Coliseo: Fabián el Gitano, Starman, Tony Rivera b Apocalipsis, Hooligan, Ramstein
(finally, YOU get stuck with him)
03/09 Mexico: Alex Koslov, Místico, Rey Bucanero vs Averno, Black Warrior, Mephisto
03/09 Mexico: Marco Corelone vs Universo 2000

  1. “AAA on GALA: Latin Lover returns! Billy Boy vs Gran Apache in the 500th AAA Bull Terrier match”

    Billy vs Apache! This will be my first Billy/Apache Bull Terrier match. Also, if I remember correctly, I like Latin Lover. Can’t wait for this weekend. AAA on my birthday!

    “AAA in Mexico: Hell Brothers vs the Vipers!!!”

    My dream has come true. So how many weeks until this is on in the US? And please don’t spoil it, I do not read the results beforehand. Thank you.

  2. Awesome. Thanks cubsfan for the information.

    I read that there is a new president for Galavision and someone said that CMLL might replace AAA. Is there any truth to that? I really don’t want AAA to go anywhere, if anything have CMLL take AAA’s Sunday replay spot.

    Do you think we could get an e-mail campaign type thing going or have some people call the Galavision offices? Or has this already been done before with no use at all?

  3. There’s new ownership for Univision – or there will be when the deal finally gets agreed upon. Univision owes Galavision, so there will likely be new people there.

    It’s unclear what changes the new group will want to make, but the company that supplies CMLL and AAA (and other shows) to Galavision lost out on the sale, and wants to pull out their programming as a result. They can’t yet – they signed a long term contract – and they’ve also talked about making their shows available on the internet (as they are in Mexico), and we’re not sure if/when that’ll happen.

    It’s all a bit muddled.

    People have tried contacting Galavision and not received much response, I believe. It hasn’t been as big an issue lately, a lot of the anger was let go when they stopped showing six month old episodes.

    But it never hurts to try. If you’d like to contact them, they list their address as

    9405 NW 41st Street
    Miami, FL 33178-2301
