CMLL (FRI) 06/14/2013 Arena Mexico [CMLL]
1) Leono & Robin b Camorra & Herodes Jr.
2) Hijo del Signo, Hooligan, Skándalo b Metálico, Pegasso, Starman
Signo & Metalico continue to feud. Signo top rope splashed Metalico for the win.
3) Bushiroad, Guerrero Maya Jr., Tritón b Boby Zavala, Namajague, Puma
Bushiroad’s debut here. Tecnicos appeared to win in straight falls (video died in the middle.)
4) Dragón Rojo Jr. b Rey Cometa [lightning]
Dragon Rojo won the Dragon Bomb in a match that started good but Rojo looked very shaky after taking Cometa’s second dive (a tornillo).
5) Negro Casas, Stuka Jr., Valiente b Fuego, Vangellys, Virus [En Busca de un Idolo]
Very good match. Rush & Terrible were in their team’s corners. Fuego and Negro got along with their unusual partners, and both teams maintained unity for the match. Team Virus took falls 1/3 to win the match. Vangellys beat Stuka with a northern lights suplex, and Virus beat Valiente with a Gori Bomb for the win. Rush attacked Negro immediately after the match was over, and Terrible made the save for the opposing trainer. Rush stormed off, and Stuka & Valiente seemed upset with Negro.
6) Máximo, Rush, Shocker DQ Mr. Águila, Rey Bucanero, Rey Escorpión
Straight falls. Rudos were DQed for excessive violence after the match, then Maximo snuck in a foul on Rey Escorpion for the win. Crowd was not happy with Rush, who stormed off for a second time the night while everyone else was making challenges.
7) Atlantis, La Sombra, Titán b Pierroth, Último Guerrero, Volador Jr.
No details, but it appeared Sombra & Atlantis unmasked their rivals during the match and Pierroth was left taking Titan’s moves. Sombra and Atlantis beat Volador and UG in the end.

En Busca de un Idolo match is definitely worth watching Tuesday if you missed it live. The Terra feed went live during entrances for the Tuesday match, so more than half aired.

Todo el Todo held a press conference Friday, because the day you want to try to get attention for your indy group is three days before the biggest show of the year. Anyway, the women didn’t get along and Zumbi said his youth would be enough to beat Demon & Santo. Santo did not agree. Hijo del Santo also appeared at a new Santo exhibition.

02/25 (notes): Nino de Acero out, Koslov to ROH, Box y Lucha

February 25, 2009February 25, 2009 thecubsfan 4 Comments

Nino de Acero will be out for nine months after fracturing his femur on Monday during a dive, which means he’s back in November if things go well. The surgery took six hours. Lucha Libre is brutal.

SuperLuchas says Alex Koslov is part of the Mexican contigent on the ROH Houston shows. That’ll be great and great for him. I hope he still does the stop sign. It also does open the door to mindblowing AAA/ROH crossovers, which we discussed a bunch on the last podcast.

Sexi Star is on the next AAA Circus Circus show, which would seem to preclude her from being Star Fire. Star Fire hasn’t really turned up much, so I guess it doesn’t really matter.

No Dark Angel or Cassandro on the last set of TNA tapings.

Ovaciones reports Blue Panther, Shocker, Hector Garza, and Black Warrior will receive Golden Microphone awards from the National Association of Broadcasters. They gave awards to Marco & Atlantis last year, so I think they just like giving awards.

The Gladatores also have interviews with Signo and Scorpio Jr. (as FCW Champion)

Box Y Lucha has articles with Perro Aguayo Jr. growning up as the son of Perro Aguayo, Super Crazy heading to Puerto Rico and Martha Villalobos angry at Mr. Mexico using ‘El Rey’ in Arena Queretaro and losing his mask, since she has a wrestler using the same name (if only there was some sort of government sponsored official group in charge of this sort of thing). The real important news is the awesome return of the old Box Y Lucha covers!

DTU hypes their appearance at the Lucha Libre Expo.

ESPN Deportes looks at UWE 03/01 Arena Neza show.

10/13: GDL, Campeons de la Lucha Libre, lineup

4) Blue Panther & Sagrado b Ephesto & Mephisto [Torneo Corona, quarterfinal]
5) Damián 666 & Texano Jr. b La Sombra & Metalik [Torneo Corona, quarterfinal]
6) La Sombra & Metalik b Ephesto & Mephisto [Torneo Corona, semifinal]
7) Marco Corelone b Lizmark Jr.

Marco took it in two falls. Lizmark got DQed in the first for excessive violence, Corelone won the second with his feet on the ropes.

Dragon Rojo Jr. says Los Campeones de la Lucha Libre is a tribute not just to him, but to all Mexican wrestling. Satanico, Olimpico, Maximo, Hijo de Faraon and La Mascara are mentioned as attending the premiere over the weekend. Do Lagurernos not stick together when it comes to movie watching? El Manana relates Eddie Chan and Lili Chan meeting Dragon Rojo Jr. for the first time, just the Friday before the show.

Al Filo del Ring talks to Oriental about his career. He says he’s talking to NOAH. Since she’s wrestling again, Oriental would also like the bring Esther Moreno back to AAA to help counter the Apaches. In her interview, Esther talks about coming back to win her first world championship, challenging Amapola to a match but not ruling out going to AAA.

Martha Villalobos, during her collection of items for hurricane victims, talked about her career with Notimex. She plans on retiring “esta proxima” due to issues with her knees. Martha says foreigners, ladders and tables are killing AAA and putting the end to the real sport. Villaobos talks about the wacky hardcore matches she’s seen in Japan and thinks the worst of that is coming to Mexico next.

SoloLuchas has interviews with Xochitl Hamada and La Roca. No, no that one, the indy luchador. There’s also a profile of Los Espantos.

Aerostar, signing autographs.

4) Alan Stone & Alex Koslov vs Chessman & Zorro

Alex is on the road immediately. X-Fly lives! That’s the Laredo Kid return match. Antifaz seems to be in and out AAA on a weekly basis, maybe he’s just here as a local.

Luchaworld has Robert on 04/22/06 CMLL, 04/29/08 CMLL, and04/07/06 AAA.
