5) Los Cadetes del Aire (Mascara Dorada, Mistico II, & Valiente) vs. Averno, Mephisto, & Ephesto
* NOTES *
– CMLL is listing the Dorada trio as “Los Cadetes del Aire” (The Air Cadets) but there has been no mention elsewhere of them forming a new group. Dorada was a part of “La Generacion Dorada” with Mascara & Sombra but they haven’t gone by that name for awhile. This sounds like a group that Sombra was a part of with the original Mistico “Super Sky Team” (Volador was a member too) a few years ago.

AAA
Vampiro Added to WWE Alumni
This week AAA star (well occasionally AAA star) Vampiro was added to WWE’s “Alumni” page on their website despite the fact (WWE never lets a little thing like facts get in the way) that he never stepped foot in WWE though he was obviously in WCW for years. His Alumni page barely mentions his career in Mexico.
AAA Replacing Octagon Jr.
In this week’s Wrestling Observer Dave Meltzer revealed that AAA plans on finding someone to replace Samuray del Sol as Octagon Jr. because it’s been so difficult to get Samuray del Sol in to enough shows (because of his busy American INDY schedule).

7) Cibernetico & El Mesias def. Perro Aguayo Jr. & Texano Jr.
* NOTES *
– After the 3rd match Texano Jr. ran out and made an open challenge to anyone that wanted a shot at his belt. Texano beat Argenis after hitting him with a foul before pinning him. Texano started beating on Argenis after the match which led to Heavy Metal running out for the save. Metal then challenged Texano for a World Title match but Texano said he was washed up and that Texano had already taken his hair (way back in CMLL in 2008) so there was no need.
– Daga hit Lider with a Super Canadian Destroyer off the top for the win in the 5th match.
– Metal returned in the Main Event to nail Texano with a guitar to cost his team the match.

INDY & OTHER NEWS
Japanese Star Possibly Coming to Mexico
This week Japanese media reported that All Japan’s Seiya Sanda would likely be heading to Mexico for an “excursion” soon. Sanada was trained by Kaz Hayashi & Satoshi Kojima and he is a former AJPW All Asia Tag Team Champion (twice with Manabu Soya), AJPW Gaora TV Champion (current), and AJPW Unified World Tag Team Champion (with Joe Doering). No word on where he will work if he comes to Mexico, but considering New Japan’s relationship with CMLL you can rule that out. AAA has a relationship with Pro Wrestling NOAH but they could very well work something out with AJPW as well. Otherwise he will probably just work independents like IWRG.
