The Lucha Report for 6/22

[KrisZ]

NOTICIAS

There was a big ceremony yesterday where Miguel Ángel Mancera who is the mayor of Mexico City and Hijo del Santo announced that there would be commemorative subway tickets paying tribute to El Santo. Santo said that it is an honor for his family to have his father stamped on the tickets that will be handed out to the public to find their way around Mexico City. Among the luminaries there were Fishman, Mano Negra, Dr. Cerebro, El Fantasma, Lady Apache, & Rossy Moreno. Also honored at the ceremony was 85-year-old Ismael Ramirez Cruz also known as Charles Bronson Mexicano who often was El Santo's double on various tours and movies and the original As Charro who is bound to a wheelchair.

Santo was asked about a possible return to the ring and he said that he wants to get back in the ring eventually but only when the time is right for him because he wants to take care of himself physically and doesn't want to risk serious injury again after his spinal injury 2 years ago. Santo said that he has many business ventures that are keeping him busy but being in the ring is the biggest joy of his life although he knows that one more bad injury could put him in a wheelchair. He did say that he has talked about a possible tour of Baja California in July where he may work some shows.

Rey Cometa & El Barbaro Cavernario will have their big hair match on 7/1 at Arena Mexico which is the same night as the Torneo Internacional Grand Prix so that is a loaded show.
