No word on last night’s Coliseo – Ovaciones has the AAA tapings results we’ve already covered – or word if/how Mistico wrestled last night. We do have some catchup…

(the Californian) This year’s Salinas Valley Fair will include lucha libre matches on Friday. Looks like APW, according to the website.

FSE put a press release trumping it’s ratings. Lucha libre gets a very small mention.

IWRG’s site is still down.

CMLL (FRI) 03/02 Arena Mexico [ova]
1) Hooligan & Ramstein b Danger & Trueno
2) Leono, Metro II, Virus b Loco Max, Nitro, Okumura
3) Felino, Sagrado, Ultimo Dragon b Eclipse, Misterioso II, Sangre Azteca
4) Averno, Ephesto, Mephisto b Heavy Metal, La Mascara, Volador Jr.
5) Alex Koslov, Marco Corleone, Rey Bucanero b Atlantis, Ultimo Guerrero, Universo 2000
6) Mistico b Perro Aguayo Jr.

Perro dominated the first fall, and was on his way to winning the second when he yanked off Mistico’s mask, getting DQed. Mistico got a new one, and rallied back, getting a pinfall when the ref was down, and later getting La Mistica for the win. Ovaciones says we could see the hair match at the Dos Leyendas show, March 30 – so they’ve pushed it back another week?

La Mascara and Eclipse got hurt in their matches. Ovaciones recap hinted they were going to try Marco/Universo again next week.

CMLL (FRI) 03/09 Arena Mexico Lineup
1) Valiente, Molotov vs Ramstein, Apocalipsis
2) Virus, Leono, Mictlan vs Okumura, Ohara, Dr. X
3) Blue Panther, La Mascara, Maximo vs Misterioso II, Ephesto, Sangre Azteca
4) Dos Caras Jr., Lizmark Jr., Volador JR. vs Atlantis, Ultimo Guerrero, Olimpico
5) Mistico, Rey Bucanero, Alex Koslov vs Black Warrior, Averno, Mephisto
6) Marco Corelone vs Universo 2000

Non title match. Make sure he’s got his plane ticket!

CMLL (TUE) 03/06 Arena Coliseo Lineup
1) Espiritu, Karisma vs Vaquero, Cobalto
2) Starman, Super Nova, Tiger Kid vs Polvora, Super Comando, Artillero
3) Tigre Blanco, Tigre Metalico, Tony Rivera vs Arkangel, Hooligan, Loco Max
4) La Mascara, Satanico, Sagrado vs Mascara Ano 2000, Pierroth, Emilio Charles Jr.
5) Dos Caras Jr., Heavy Metal, Lizmark Jr. vs Halloween, Damian 666, Mr. Aguila

That would be Kid Tigers’s Coliseo debut, I think.

CMLL (SUN) 03/11 Arena Coliseo Lineup
1) Danger, Truneo vs Messala, Caligula
2) Lady Apache, India Sioux, Luna Magica vs La Nazi, Rosa Negra, Medussa
3) Leono, Stuka Jr., Tony Rivera vs Arkangel, Mr. Mexico, Mogur
4) La Mascara, Mictlan, Ogun vs Pierroth, Hijo de Pierroth, Okumura
5) Marco Corleone, Dos Caras Jr., Alex Koslov vs Damian 666, Halloween, Mr. Aguila

They gotta be doing the hair match next week, right?

Super Crazy was visiting, here at Arena Mexico and on the IWRG show on Thursday. Speaking of…

IWRG (THU) 03/01 Arena Naucalpan
1) Comando Gama b Celestial
2) Ave Fenix & Kid Tiger b Bestial & Dr. Maldad
3) Aki, Fabian el Gitano, Yamato b Fantasma de la Opera, Trauma I, Trauma II
4) Black Terry, Kraneo, Zandokan b Cerebro Negro, Dr. Cerebro, Suicida
5) El Dandy, Electroshock, Heavy Metal b Bestia Salvaje, Pierroth, Veneno

Semimain had rudos beat the trios champs in a non-title match, but they’re actually setting up a Black Terry/Cerebro Negro title match there. Third match was said to be particularly good, which must mean it was 83% awesome and 14% Fabian el Gitano.

on Guerreros del Ring:
unmasked: Mr. Aguila, who turns out to be Papi Chulo
02/25 Coliseo: Leono, Sagrado, Virus vs Arkangel, Mogur, Nitro
02/16 Mexico: Eclipse, Mascara Ano 2000, Universo 2000 vs Blue Panther, Lizmark Jr., Negro Casas
New bonus: a super annoying scroll on the bottom of the screen where people (and by people, we mean 12-15 year old kids) can text message comments (90% about Cena, Undertaker and Batista)

Either this week or next week is my last week of this, I think, unless I figure out something.

01/06: Mexico, GdR

CMLL (FRI) 01/05 Arena Mexico Results [Super Luchas, Galeno de Mal, ovaciones]
1) Mini Olimpico, Tzuki, Ultimo Dragoncito DQ Mini Damian 666, Mini Halloween, Mini Mr. Aguila
2) Lady Apache, Marcela, Sahori b Amapola, Hiroka, Mima Shimoda
3) Damian 666, Halloween, Mr. Aguila b Felino, Heavy Metal, Negro Casas
4) Dr. Wagner Jr., Lizmark Jr., Rey Bucanero DQ Atlantis, Olimpico, Ultimo Guerrero
5) Mistico b Averno

The cheap kids tickets filled up the arena, which telegraphs the main event finish. Check out the fall times for the main event, via Ocampo
1) 1:54
2) 3:11
3) 16:45

Uh huh. You can guess the finish, and it reads like a good match. Mistico challenged for the mask match again, and Averno was so frustrated, he accepted – but for the CMLL Middleweight Title match. That’s not on the schedule for next week, or at least so far.

Alexis posted the 01/12 lineup on box y lucha, and it’s off season-ish with no ongoing issues (though I can make up a few things.) Sangre and Koslov make it all the way up to the semimain (unless they ARE doing Mistico/Averno and they’re bumped down to a more reasonable spot.)

Other notes: Ultimo Guerrero fouled Dr. Wagner to draw the DQ in the semimain…Amapola had Lady Apache rolled up for the win in the second match (with a little help from the ropes), but Marcela turned over the pin. Amapola’s still looking for a title shot…Mini Damian yanked Tzuki’s mask to get the DQ in the opener.

airing on GdR
12/22 Mexico: Arkangel, Loco Max, Okumura b Fabian el Gitano, Leono, Tony Rivera
01/01 Coliseo: Heavy Metal, La Mascara, Volador Jr. vs Mascara Ano 2000, Terrible, Universo 2000
Unmasked: Black Warrior

It’s pretty impressive that I’m typing this, because I’m currently losing my mind. 12/22 was the taping that was never aired – except they absolutely positively had to go back to make sure we got our weekly match with those goofs (and not, say, just air the Volador/Averno match!) And that’s a Coliseo match which has like a 5% of being any good – did they save the main event for the non-existent FSE show? And the story of Black Warrior being unmasked, we sure haven’t heard about that any time recently, nooooo.

Why? Why? Is this spite? I’m sorry for whatever I did. Please stop.

Edit: Actually, that match is the same one they aired last week. Why? That makes even less sense.

Another just okay segunda match, a long-ish main event – long enough that I should’ve gone back and see if I actually timed it correct – but nothing special here. I predict this will get a 0 for 2 on the F4 show.

Appearances in the last six weeks…
1: Mistico
3: Leono and La Mascara
4: Loco Max and Arkangel
5: Fabian el Gitano
7: Sangre Azteca

I know CMLL’s roster isn’t this small, but it sure seems that way of late. It would improve things dramatically if, instead of showing a segunda with the same guys yet again, they’d mix it up and grab the opening match or the tercera.

speaking of TV: I watched the last half of AAA’s main event today (from the pre-GdT show), and reached two conclusions
– the matches still aren’t good (though seeing Cibernetico Hulk Up, complete with three punches, was entertaining in it’s own way)
– oh my gosh, Cibernetico’s super over. Especially with the girls. Like if there was no one booing Cena.

I mean, it may not be something I want to pay for, but it’s something a lot of people will be paying to see – if they can ride this wave in 2007, they’re going to be doing enormous business. The one missing piece is new opposition if Ricky is gone (or even if he isn’t, at some point it’ll be run into the ground). Shocker would’ve been perfect for this spot if he had stuck around, and Scorpio can’t quite replace him there. Konnan was pushed in a position where he’d normally be next, but obviously that’s not happening, and none of the Sect or TNA guys have built a individual presence that’d make it work. La Parka Jr. ain’t turning rudo. Pirata? Abismo? I dunno.

(FWIW, I think the idea of Bucanero jumping doesn’t work anymore. The spot is gone. Wagner or Silver King might be fun, but I don’t think either of them could stomach working rudo stooge to Cibernetico’s tecnico hero.)

If the Toluca crowd is any fair representation, though, Cibernetico’s so over, it may not matter who he’s facing.

CMLL (FRI) 12/29 Arena Mexico Results
1) Danger, Flash b Caligula, Messala
2) Amapola, Hiroka, Mima Shimoda b Lady Apache, Marcela, Sahori
3) Felino, Maximo, Virus b Nitro, Okumura, Sangre Azteca
4) Dos Caras Jr., Lizmark Jr., Rey Bucanero b Kenzo Suzuki, Pierroth, Terrible
5) Mistico, Negro Casas, Volador Jr. DQ Averno, Black Warrior, Tarzan Boy

In the main event, Averno and Mistico were left in the ring in the final fall and Averno realized where this one was headed, so he fouled Mistico. That’s a moral victory for Averno, not taking La Mistica. Mistico vowed to take Averno’s mask and belt in 2007. I dunno about that, but I do know they’ll have a singles match as the main event of next week’s Arena Mexico show (which may or may not be aired.)

Semimain had a weird first fall finish – everyone counted out. Tecnicos won 2 and 3, so they won the match 2-0-1. I wonder what strategy you use for that third fall, knowing the worst case scenario is a tie. (Not that strategizing actually happened.)

Ovaciones says Amapola challenged Lady Apache after the rudas won the women’s match, CMLL says it was Hiroka. They’re just running a revenge trios match next week anyway.

Next week’s DF cards are up on CMLL.com. The highlight is Mistico/Averno, but Sunday’s coliseo semimain – Volador, Felino, Sagrado vs Averno, Mephisto, Alex Koslov – could be a nice one.

Airing on Guerreros del Ring
12/22 Mexico: Arkangel, Loco Max, Okumura b Fabian el Gitano, Leono, Tony Rivera
12/25 Coliseo: Pierroth, Sangre Azteca, Terrible b Mictlan, Sagrado, Texano Jr.

I CAN NOT TAKE ANY MORE FABIAN EL GITANO
