Linus Posted May 12, 2015 Posted May 12, 2015 It's that question again... is the World Cup going to appear on Sin Limite, or shall I try and track it down?
thecubsfan Posted May 12, 2015 Posted May 12, 2015 They've said it'll air on TV on a delay. They'll have enough TV tapings that they could length that delay for quite a few weeks if they like.
AlfredoE Posted May 12, 2015 Posted May 12, 2015 I'm not too thrilled about the non-AAA wrestlers in that tournament. Really, right now its just the AAA Dream Team that has me considering ordering the iPPV, but its 50-50. I might save my money to go watch Rush vs. Cage live if that really happens.
Tromatagon Posted May 12, 2015 Posted May 12, 2015 I just hope every guy in Mexico is ready for when Takayama steals all of their women
odessasteps Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 @cmll_official En Busca de Un Ídolo.... PRÓXIMAMENTE!
Matt D Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 My initial thought was that it'd be made up of guys from the "new format" Saturday Arena Coliseo shows, with the singles matches, but I guess I had read those wrong as most of the guys from this last week were fairly established if lower-card.
AlfredoE Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 When they first announced the Sabado Populares shows at Arena Coliseo, they had mentioned using new talent on the shows, but they nixed that rather quickly and just went with the lower card guys who've been around. I dont think they've debuted anyone new. Really only relatively new guy on DF shows might be Esfinge from GDL. It might be the lower card guys this year, but I would imagine we might know more tomorrow on CMLL Informa...or not. Its CMLL, who the heck knows.
Linus Posted May 16, 2015 Posted May 16, 2015 So I made my monthly pilgrimage to Lucha Britannia last night, where pale English people play at being luchadors. It's a massively fun show but anyway. Who should turn up in the main event? JUVENTUD GUERRERA. This is a show in a tiny coverted railway arch, in front of 200 people (no seats, all standing, up against the ring). He worked the first half of the match in his mask, and then just took it off. He also bled hardway at the end. I afeared I might have gotten some of his bodily fluids on me but luckily I survived that biohazard. Anyway, it was pretty awesome.
Tromatagon Posted May 16, 2015 Posted May 16, 2015 Oh man I would so not want to get Juvy Juice on me
Linus Posted May 16, 2015 Posted May 16, 2015 He had some belt with him, don't know what. And in the main event, which was a three-way, after champion Santeria had pinned Pure Britannico to keep his title, Juvi pinned Santeria and nobody was expecting it. We pretended it was for the belt he brought with him. Also, at the end, he put the promoter over big time and said he was starting a TV show in Mexico soon and would make sure the Lucha Britannia guys were involved. I've never seen 200 people collectively roll their eyes.

AlfredoE Posted May 16, 2015 Posted May 16, 2015 If his TV show features his girlfriend on it, people will watch it.
Tromatagon Posted May 20, 2015 Posted May 20, 2015 The LuchaPopCouture shop is open at luchashop.com - I just ordered a sick Rudos baseball shirt (the name on the back is MARTINETE) - they also have Technicos and Exoticos baseball shirts
odessasteps Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 Everybody go read Fredo's awesome interview w Negro Navarro www.luchaworld.com/?p=53516
Tromatagon Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 Oh man I'm saving it for work tomorrow to brighten my day. Thanks Fredo!
Matt D Posted May 27, 2015 Posted May 27, 2015 I'm not the kind of guy to go nuts for dives or anything but Flyer's dive tonight was great. I kind of went nuts for that.
Robert Posted June 3, 2015 Author Posted June 3, 2015 I tell you what... I am 3 matches into this CaraLucha Anniversary Show and so far it's 3 for 3. This is without getting to Rush/Hechicero or Volador/Titan vs Flamita/Bestia yet! Strong show of the year contender. 4 for 4 if you count the opener which had awesome highlights by +Lucha TV but probably won't be available in full.
Robert Posted June 3, 2015 Author Posted June 3, 2015 Son of a bitch CaraLucha is actually doing VOLADOR vs FLAMITA on 6/14.
Tromatagon Posted June 9, 2015 Posted June 9, 2015 So AAA is debuting Amenaza Elegante - a wrestler using Robert's best friend Octagon's old name and basically the Octagon mask, and the reactions by Octagon on twitter will thoroughly entertain you.
Matt D Posted June 16, 2015 Posted June 16, 2015 I was looking at a Friday Night Arena Mexico card from 2002 and this apparently did not make TV: 3) Felino, Negro Casas, Virus b Blue Panther, Fuerza Guerrera, Juventud Guerrera Life isn't fair. EDIT: they ran a whole Virus vs Juvi feud. Do we really have none of those singles matches? Come on. This was the match where Juvi turned on him: Lucha isn't fair.
Robert Posted June 16, 2015 Author Posted June 16, 2015 I don't think they did a Virus/Juvi match. They did Virus/Fuerza and it aired on TV either JIP or heavily edited. CMLL TV back then was about as awful as it is today. Top 2 matches, heavily edited.
Pete Posted June 16, 2015 Posted June 16, 2015 Everybody go read Fredo's awesome interview w Negro Navarro www.luchaworld.com/?p=53516 Negro: "You kids stay off my lawn." Kids: "YESSIR!"

CMLL TV back then was about as awful as it is today. Top 2 matches, heavily edited. Match finder has: 2002-10-18 Arena México 3 of 6: Juventud Guerrera b Virus I thought that might be the Fuerza match, just with a mistake but that happened a couple of months earlier apparently. 2002-08-30 Arena México 4 of 6: Fuerza Guerrera b Virus *
Robert Posted June 16, 2015 Author Posted June 16, 2015 Well there you go. No TV, it's like it never existed.
