CMLL
Tag Champs Coming to Japan
This past weekend New Japan announced that CMLL Tag Team Champions El Terrible & Tama Tonga would be defending their belts in Japan on 04/07 against CMLL’s La Mascara & Valiente. Also, CMLL’s Tiffany, Marcela, Goya Kong, and Silueta will be heading back to Japanese women’s promotion REINA in June. Marcela will defend the CMLL World Women’s Championship on 06/30.
CMLL’s Harlem Shake
This week CMLL surprisingly joined the “Harlem Shake” craze and did their own version of it inside the legendary Arena Coliseo and it’s pretty much a big advertisement for the 70th Anniversary Show for Arena Coliseo coming up. Several luchadors including La Mascara, Psicosis II, El Alebrije, Delta, and many other appear in the video.
Former Luchadora Retiring
This week former CMLL Women’s Champion Ayumi Kurihara announced that she is retiring in September. Ayumi isn’t even 30 years old yet and only debuted in 2005 but has suffered several injuries and is retiring due to these injuries. She wrestled for CMLL in 2010 and 2011 and even won the X-LAW Women’s Championship while in Mexico. She actually won the CMLL Women’s Championship in Japan from Marcela in Japan only to return to Mexico last year and drop the title back to her.

AAA
Mascarita Dorada to WWE?
Last week rumors started to swarm that AAA’s Mascarita Dorada had signed with WWE and then Dave Meltzer actually reported in the Wrestling Observer that a “mini from Mexico” was in WWE Developmental (FCW/NXT). An interview that Dorada did a few weeks ago with Lucha 2000 was then put on the internet (https://twitter.com/apolovaldes/statuses/316658971656216577) where he confirmed that he had signed a contract with WWE and was going to be training in their developmental territory.
