AAA
Rey de Reyes News
In this past week’s MLW Podcast Konnan spoke in great detail about the recent Rey de Reyes event. He said that Juventud Guerrera had a fractured foot which was the reason he was out, and Blue Demon Jr. told AAA that he is applying for U.S. residency and as a result of that application he must stay in the U.S. for 3 months as a part of that. Konnan claimed he wasn’t sure if he believed that. Konnan did give Demon credit for at least letting them know he wouldn’t be there and making the video to explain to the crowd, and he claimed that Demon would be appearing for AAA next weekend which sounds fishy if that whole 3 month rule is true. Konnan then went on to complain about how difficult Demon is to work with accusing him of showing up late.
CMLL
2014 En Busca de un Idolo Tounament
This week CMLL announced the lineups for the upcoming En Busca de un Idolo Tournament. Virus will be the coach for one team and Negro Casas will be the coach for the other team. Guerrero Negro Jr., Star Jr., Super Halcon Jr., and likely the guy that will steal the show in this tournament Hechicero will be on Virus’ team while Barbaro Cavernario, Cachorro, Dragon Lee, & Soberano Jr. will be on Negro Casas’ team. Like every year points will be based on wins, judge’s decisions, and public voting from the fans. I will try my best to keep up with the points each week. Tirantes, Shocker, Mr. Niebla, and a surprise fourth luchador will be the judges during the tournament matches.

5) Kraneo, Morphosis, & Psyco Reaper def. Euforia, Gran Guerrero, & Niebla Roja
6) Volador Jr. def. Mephisto
* NOTES *
– Mephisto was making his entrance as Psyco Reaper and his team was walking back up the entrance ramp. They argued and then during the third fall of the Main Event they came back out and distracted Mephisto leading to a Volador win. They then jumped in the ring and attacked both Volador and Mephisto until Los Guerreros ran out for the save.
CMLL 03/25 Arena Mexico Results
1) Apocalipsis & Inquisidor def. Bengala & Leono
2) Hombre Bala Jr., Molotov, & Sensei def. Artillero, Espanto Jr., & Super Comando
3) Pegasso, Stuka Jr., & Stigma def. Kamaitachi, Sangre Azteca, & Virus
4) Busca de un Idolo Preview Torneo Cibernetico: Cachorro, Cavernario, Dragon Lee, Guerrero Negro Jr., Hechicero, Soberano Jr., Star Jr., & Super Halcon Jr. def. Black Panther, Canelo Casas, El Rebelde, Espiritu Negro, Flyer, Herodes Jr., Metalico, & Oro Jr.
5) Averno, Ephesto, & Tiger Kid def. Maximo, Mistico II, & Brazo de Plata
* NOTES *
– The winning team in the Cibernetico will go on to the Busca de un Idolo Tournament. Odd that Negro Casas’ son and only one of Blue Panther’s sons make it in.
– Metalico separated his shoulder during the Cibernetico and CMLL says it is unclear when he will be able to return. It likely depends on whether he tore something in his shoulder in the process. Coming from someone who has separated his shoulder three times the biggest risk when you separate or dislocate your shoulder is tearing the labrum in your shoulder. If he there was a tear there or anywhere else in his shoulder he will likely be out for a few months, if no tears he could probably be back in a little more than a month.
CMLL 03/25 Arena Coliseo Guadalajara Results
1) Esfinge def. Rey Trueno

6) Rush def. Shocker via DQ
* NOTES *
– El Cuatrero and Sanson in the fourth match are the sons of Cien Caras, and he accompanied them to the ring.
– Sombra and Volador still don’t like each other.

WWE Announces Sin Cara Release
Former WWE star Sin Cara (the original Mistico) has been working in Mexico since February 1st but oddly this week the WWE officially announced his release from the company. This is odd with him appearing all over Mexico since February. He even appeared for AAA, very briefly, last month and it’s been reported by he and Konnan that he can’t appear on TV until May. Also, WWE has issued a threat to sue AAA if he uses the “Sin Cara” name on their TV. Wrestling Observer claims that the announcement signifies the end of his “non-compete clause” in his contract which means if that is true he could debut officially for AAA this weekend.
Luchadora Legend Passes Away
This week Maria del Angel passed away after she suffered a stroke on Sunday night. She actually suffered the stroke during a show in Guadalajara that was honoring her. She was among the first luchadoras that began wrestling in the 1980’s when Lucha Libre lifted their ban on women wrestling and was considered a legend because of that. She was married to the late Bestia Salvaje, R.I.P. to her!
