05/20: Accion, FSE

Accion highlights…

CMLL: highlights of LdP cibernetico, with Stuka and others stealing the show more than Aguila’s win – especially when Aguila’s win is the slightly screwed up double stomp. I think, if asked, Mr. Aguila would have no problem double stomping a man, but he was too caught up in doing it as the Aguayos do it that he over thought it. Like I’m over thinking this.

AAA: Cibernetico/Zorro vs “Six Pack”/Head Hunter I. That’s so so funny. Zorro’s graphic still has him in masked though he’s out of it here. I guess they want to keep the new guy strong, but wouldn’t have it looked a lot better if Cibernetico speared Waltman out of his shoes instead of just knocking Head Hunter back and down?

I have absolutely no idea why, but FSE moved up lucha libre from midnight to 10 pm EST. I don’t recall the listings saying this earlier in the week (though they obviously do now, because my TiVo caught it.)
05/13 Coliseo: Lady Apache, Luna Magica, Marcela b Amapola, Hiroka, Mima Shimoda
05/13 Coliseo: Felino, Heavy Metal, Sagrado b Ephesto, Mephisto, Misterioso II

The newest Wrestling Obsever Newsletter states the NWA is consideration using Psicodelcio Jr. & Incognito in a one night tournament to crown new NWA Tag Team champions. They would be very unlikely to win.

According to the newest Super Luchas, next Sunday’s tercera:
3) Starman, Texano Jr., Virus vs Felino, Maximo, Mictlan
should be
3) Satanico, Texano Jr., Virus vs Felino, Maximo, Mictlan

That’d make far more sense. I think the Mictlan/Infernales stuff is just working out that way based on card position and the lack of tecnicos, and isn’t necessarily meaningful of a pending issue, but they did seem to be heading in a Texano/Maximo or Virus/Maximo hair match direction before Maximo got hurt, and they could be picking up here. This is all a guess.

Both Ovaciones and Super Luchas have noted this weekend how Mistico being in the next week’s Leyenda de Plata cibernetico does not fit with the previously established rules. It’s fine for it to not fit, but CMLL’s got at least acknowledge there’s a change going on here. Still wouldn’t be surprised if there’s a midweek lineup shift, or even a Friday night one.

  1. I have no idea either as to why Fox Sports keeps jerking Lucha around. There was no live soccer within a few hours of Lucha that would affect the timeslot. It was better off on Friday. FSE is trying to strengthen ratings on the west coast. 12mid in NY is 9pm in LA, and they only have one feed, not dual like Galavision, so this could be it.

  2. Timeline on the review of this weekend’s GdR? Eager to hear your thoughts on the opener.
