AAA

Verano Escandalo Date Revealed
A member of the AAA staff revealed via a Facebook comment that “Verano de Escandalo” will take place 06/14 in Monterrey with Rey Misterio Jr. competing at the event. The comment was deleted and AAA is likely upset about him leaking the information.

Psycho Clown Engaged to a Casas
This weekend AAA’s Psycho Clown got engaged to Zaraida Casas, the daughter of the legendary Negro Casas. That marriage will link possibly the two most prolific families in the history of lucha libre, the Casas family and the Brazo family, together. Psycho’s father is none other than CMLL star Brazo de Plata (Super Porky in AAA) and both families go back generations in Lucha. Zaraida has never wrestled herself to my knowledge but other than her father she has dozens of family members still in lucha today let alone in the past and the same can be said for the Brazo family.

CMLL

Tetsuya Naito Returning to CMLL
This week New Japan Pro Wrestling announced that Tetsuya Naito was heading back to Mexico to work for CMLL for about a month. Naito spent the better part of two years a couple of years ago with his former partner Yujiro.

Mr. Niebla Updates
Recently Mr. Niebla returned to action with CMLL after seemingly being fired following the January “FantasticaMania” events in Japan. Wrestling Observer revealed this week that Niebla disappeared from the other wrestlers on the third night of the Japan tour and didn’t show up for the bus to go to the next town. He was found passed out in his room and was taken to the hospital where he spent three days. New Japan was extremely pissed off and forced CMLL to pay the hospital bill causing CMLL to fire him. Mima Shimoda also got a lot of heat for the issue because it is her job to keep the luchadors out of trouble during those Japanese tours. CMLL reportedly hired Niebla back partly to force him to work off the money he owes to CMLL for the hospital stay.

Rey Bucanero Causes More Controversy
A few weeks ago CMLL’s Rey Bucanero caused some controversy when he was quoted as saying that Rey Misterio Jr. told him he was going to retire. Bucanero later told reporters that he was misquoted and never said Misterio would be retiring. Last week Bucanero reportedly attacked a ring announcer at a “private show” (sometimes rich people or big companies will pay CMLL or other promotions to put on “private show” for friends or business partners that is closed to the public) when the ring announcer announced a ring girls name instead of Bucanero’s during his entrance. Bucanero ooked at it as a sign of disrespect and reportedly punched and kicked the ring announcer.

MISC/INDY

Rey Horus Coming to EVOLVE
This week the EVOLVE promotion announced that luchador Rey Horus would be making his debut with EVOLVE at the 04/18 “EVOLVE 42” iPPV event when he faces high flying Andrew Everett in one on one action. Horus opened a lot of eyes late last month during WrestleMania weekend with his performances at the King of Indies Tournament, and will likely be getting a lot more attention in the U.S. this year. Horus was the second Hijo de Rey Misterio, given the name by Rey Misterio Sr. who also trained him, before changing his name to Rey Horus last year (combining the Rey Misterio name and his former Horus moniker).

CaraLucha Holding Big Tournament
This week Indy promotion CaraLucha announced that they will be holding a 16 person “Bestiario” tournament which will be much like CMLL’s En Busca de un Idolo. They will hold a seminar with a trainer, 8 of the best from the 16 will then move on to a single elimination tournament. Instead of moving on via winning their matches the lucahdor that scores the highest from the judges (featuring a referee, a luchador, a media member, a fan, and a CaraLucha staff member) will move on to the next round. The winner of the tournament will face Flamita on the 05/30 event.

Laredo Kid Gets Second WWE Tryout
Former AAA star Laredo Kid received his second WWE try out this time in front of a live crowd at a Smackdown! taping in Texas. Laredo Kid worked without a mask as “Tony Guevara” in a Tag Team match with another unknown local wrestler against Los Matadores. Laredo Kid was said to have been impressive flying around a lot but it is unknown if WWE will offer him a deal or not.
