Last four matches were good, with that semifinal great. It sounds like they’ll definitely rematch next week, but could run into each other on Tuesday.

Terra had the same buffering issues they’ve had often in Coliseo (including last week.) Only the Baja feed recorded well for me.

A Toryumon show. They should have another show before DragonMania in May.

Dark Angel said she was doing English commentary for CMLL on Friday. I wonder who they’re selling TV to now.

CMLL has posted the Nueva Peste Negra and Rush vs Shocker skits from Friday. They’re both fun, and hopefully the start of a trend.

Marco Corleone says his first match back went well.

Rob has highlights of 11/12/13 CMLL.

LuchaWorld has KrisZ’s news update.

This week’s Super Libre had Rudy Santana, Guerrero Maya and Titan as guests.

Animal won the Gran Prix Refaccionarias del Valle in Tijuana

Los Colisenios believes we should not get too excited abotu a Shocker rudo turn given the last few years but a feud with Rush might be good for him. Meanwhile, Argos on Facebook angrily responded to the recent Mistico column by claiming Los Colisenos/Cesar is in fact CMLL announcer Julio Cesar Rivera and two other people who work for CMLL. (The multiple people would explain why he was oddly posting on two different blogs at last week, that was really business exposing.)
