03/16: Puebla, Dos Leyendas, Mexico preview

CMLL (THU) 03/15 Arena Puebla
1) Fenix & Kirvan b Ares & La Mafia
2) Bobby Jack, Karissman, Siki Osama Jr. b Centella de Oro, SWAT, Tigre Rojo
3) Dark Angel, Lady Apache, Marcela b Amapola, Hiroka, Nazi
4) Eclipse, Misterioso II, Sangre Azteca b Coco Blanco, Coco Rojo, Coco Verde
5) Dr. Wagner, Rey Bucanero, Shocker DQ Efesto, Olimpico, Ultimo Guerrero

Efesto replaced Tarzan Boy, who seems to miss Puebla every other week.

Lots of articles on CMLL’s 03/30 Dos Leyenda press conference
– They officially announced the High Society group that’s been talked about for a few weeks. Shocker, Bucanero, Corelone and Koslov are in the group. They hope to recruit every metrosexual wrestler. Is Maximo the new member?
– Universo and Marco talked trash. Usual experience vs youth.
– This will be the first Ticketmaster show (though they’re not up there yet, as far as I can see.)
– Perro Aguayo Jr. is going to be filming a reality show. I think this is what the documentary bit yesterday was about. He’ll be scaling back his non-Mexico City wrestling while he’s working on it.

ESTO has a preview of tonight’s card. Nothing special. They’ve also got stories about the VIP show

Tonight’s lineup:

CMLL (FRI) 03/16 Arena Mexico
1) Sombra de Plata & Super Nova vs Polvora & Vaquero
2) Dark Angel, Luna Magica, Sahori vs Hiroka, Mima Shimoda, Princesa Sujei
3) Blue Panther, Felino, Mictlan vs Ephesto, Mephisto, Misterioso Jr.
4) Heavy Metal, Sagrado, Volador Jr. vs Atlantis, Sangre Azteca, Universo 2000
5) Alex Koslov, Marco Corleone, Shocker vs Damian 666, Hector Garza, Hijo del Perro Aguayo

Two weeks out, and the big push looks to be behind the new tecnico unit, which has nothing to do with the big show. They’re not really building anything for 03/30 here (though I’m sure Universo will distract Corelone in the main event or something), almost like someone completely different booked this card and the 03/30.

  1. Marco, Bucanero, Corelone and Koslov are in the group.

    Do you mean Shocker, Bucanero, Corelone, and Koslov?

  2. Yea, it should be Rey, Alex, Marco, Shocker. Maybe I should stick with all first names.

  3. Bucanero needs to go to AAA is what he needs to do. He’s the 4th string player in that group.

  4. I’d rather CMLL TV had another week of TV airing the top 3 from Arena Mex.

    How much could it hurt for them to just throw someone like Valiente for example into the tercera in place of Panther? – like the random changes they sometimes do on Coliseo shows?

    Back in the real world, the replacement will be someone like Shitmark jr, La Mas**ra, Ultimo Dragon, Fabian El Gitano – ie all the tecnico midcard shit! The ‘best’ we could hope for would probably be Maximo.

    After a little while back where they were pushed to the side like they should be, those women are really beginning to seriously infest CMLL TV cards again! :(

    And Corleone and Koslov as tecnicos is a joke!

    Man, you’d never guess i’m getting eeeeever so slightly disillusioned with pretty much everything about CMLL these days*

    Nice semi-main all the same.

  5. 1) Sombra de Plata & Super Nova vs Polvora & Vaquero

    Never heard of any of them, I don’t think. Definately haven’t seen them. I’m all for new luchadors.

    2) Dark Angel, Luna Magica, Sahori vs Hiroka, Mima Shimoda, Princesa Sujei

    Dark Angel is in it so I’m interested. I also like Princess Sujei. Not sure who Luna or Sahori is. Again, I like new luchadoras.

    3) Blue Panther, Felino, Mictlan vs Ephesto, Mephisto, Misterioso Jr.

    I’m not sure who Mictlan. Not a big fan of Blue Panther, but I like Felino. The other team of Mephisto and Misterioso II, I love. Haven’t seen Eclipse yet.

    4) Heavy Metal, Sagrado, Volador Jr. vs Atlantis, Sangre Azteca, Universo 2000

    Awesome. I love the Metal/Sagarado/Volador Jr team. The team of Atlantis, Azteca, and Universo is also great. Can’t wait to see this match.

    5) Alex Koslov, Marco Corleone, Shocker vs Damian 666, Hector Garza, Hijo del Perro Aguayo

    Nice. I like all of them luchadors involved. Seems weird to me but I haven’t seen any recent CMLL shows since I live in the US. But overall I like the match.

    Good show but no Mistico, Black Warrior, Ultimo Guerrero, Averno, or Dr. Wagner Jr. isn’t cool.

  6. Lineups posted:

    Mascara Sagrada – f*cking hell. :(

    But……

    JEQUE~~!!! :D :D

    Decent enough on the whole I guess if nothing to shout about.

    And once again, those f*cking woman stealing yet more precious Coliseo Tv time from the more deserving. I swear i’d rather watch a best of 500 series between La Mascara/Fabian El Gitano/Lizmark Jr V Loco Max/Apocolypsis/Ohara than suffer the absolute shit that is CMLL women :(
