2009 AAA TV Chart
Projected Air Date (#883)
Mexico: 04/12
US: 05/02
Note: unless AAA does some post production (or pushes some episodes back and inserts a tribute show), it won’t be until April 19th until they address Abismo’s death on TV (and May 9th in the US.) AAA hasn’t had this much television sitting around, but because of the quirks of the schedule (one more week of Rey de Reyes, plus this is an extra taping to make up for no tapings on the first leg of the US tour), this show was taped 3 weeks in advance.
Rudos won the main event with lots of help from the rest of the Legion (though Jack’s not mentioned among them.) Marco made the save.
Silver King and La Parka Jr. brawled around the building, busting each other open and ending up out in the street. Not sure if the official decision was no contest or double count out, but it doesn’t much matter. They ended up brawling back to the ring, Hermandad ran in to help Silver King and Marco (again) and Aerostar made the save for Parka.
Marco replaced Abismo and pinned Black Abyss. About what you’d expect from that tecnico tag team.
Everyone says Nicho/Lider was the best of the night. Teddy controlled most of the other tournament match, with Jack sneaking out a win and a tease of a split post match.
Billy pinned Fabi. Aerostar is now doing the Crazy Boy bit of jumping from a high place every show because it worked the first time.
I presume the opener won’t won’t air.
Next tapings are supposed to be on the US Tour, though those plans could change. I have not seen a date for the next taping in Mexico.
NICHO VS LIDER BEST OF THE NIGHT?
What the fuck?
I wouldn’t take this too serious since it’s only an user opinion at the two bulletin boards. The mexican bulletin boards are strange – even if an event was the worst show of the year and every match was the crappiest botchamania, half of the users will rate it as an “excelente función”. Which is good on the one hand because it’s respectful to the wrestlers who at least try to give their best even if they have limited abilities, but it’s bad on the other because the lazy workers don’t have to improve.
@Ringo: The thing with the message boards too, is that you never know who’s posting. It can be the crappy wrestlers trying to put themselves over under a false name. Or it can be the same stupid fan posting different comments under different names.
You cannot trust any live report saying Lider/Nicho was the best match b/c this is Monterrey… a place where people consider NGX and OLX wrestlers to be talented and capable of putting on MOTYCs just b/c they can staple themselves.
I’m curious to see the match now b/c Roberto said it was good and I trust his opinion. The rest of the people I don’t take seriously b/c they are the same people who think Violento Jack needs to be in CMLL.
Much like last year’s Rey De Reyes, I hope the dark match opener can sneak onto TV.
C’est la vie
LMDL put up video highlights of the show here:

You can see why Lider/Nicho was voted match of the night since they did about 20 bumps that would each be considered finishers leading to big injury angles. I feel so sorry for Nicho at this point.
Nice dive by Aero Star and as usual – tons of great spots between Jack and Teddy.
Vamp looks to be in disgustly awful shape.
@Rob: Talk about a spot-fest. The video stalled midway through for me, so I only saw as far as Jack/Teddy, but man, it looked great. Sick dive by Aero Star, too.
