AAA vs IWRG trainee show. Oass (AAA) did not catch Alan Extreme on a dive, which caused issues between the sides in the main event. Comando Negro was DQed for giving Raydent (AAA) a martinete. Eterno defeated Golden Bull to win it for his side.
Today, CMLL has a show in Arena Mexico no one would’ve cared about before, and all the stories on Thursday’s press conference means no one’s even writing about it. (It’s generic build.) CMLL also have cage matches elsewhere where the most likely person to lose will lose the match.
Dragon Rojo Jr. explains he will NOT be in the bodybuilding contest next Thursday. You see, he would need to dehydrate himself to get in peak shape for bodybuilding, and that would drain his strength too much at a time where he needs it to continue his rivalry with Mistico. (Perhaps we’re getting Dragon Rojo/Mistico next Friday? ) Dragon Rojo still says great things about Poder Mexica but has managed not to talk to them, somehow.
AAA explains that “ruleta rusa” means “battle royal.” It’s never meant that before, but sure why not. It’ll still end up being an elimination match.
Amo de Lucha Libre has the guys from the AAA/IWRG opener talking about their match and the IWRG guys talking about Konnan and Dorian talking about buying their building.
LuchaWorld has the latest Slammin’ Stan.

- Cesar looks at Copa Junior. By the way, as best I could tell, CMLL really did announce 10 names for one block and 9 names for the other. My thought on this is I don’t have to care for another couple of weeks.

Daga in a match without Eterno?
What injury did Heavy Metal suffer?
I guess Dragon Rojo vs Mistico will be for a belt. No way Dragon loses his mask. Especially after RDL spent four weeks making the new graphics.
I had trouble listening to the slamminstan podcast. Keeps buffering.
I like the semi-main for the Tues GDL show! Could be fun since they aren’t main event and can go just go out there all out for 10-12 minutes and then go home. Much more appealing than the main event.
The Tues Arena Mex shows just keep getting more boring by the week. I guess December will have a tournament for the trios titles again.
Next Friday looks decent enough. Rush is starting to get that push we all expected him to get. Very confused by Psicosis teaming with two CMLL guys the week before we get the CMLL vs Independientes supposed blowoff match… which of course makes me believe even more Aguila is winning and CMLL is too lazy to give up on the Invasores deal. The tecs vs tecs minis match looks good but we’ll probably never see it.
What did a Russian Roulette match used to mean? I’m picturing minis in the scene from The Deer Hunter and I doubt it’s that awesome.
