Great technical match. One of those matches that never got any Dave stars & probably doesn't exist on cagematch so without those reference points many are probably missing out. youtu.be/5MoQ6gILujQ?si=MvmQ…
Hoy en la #LuchaDelRecuerdo revivimos esta magnífica contienda en mano a mano por el Campeonato Mundial Semicompleto de la NWA entre Atlantis y Black Warrior (QEPD) el 4 de marzo de 1997 en la Arena Coliseo.

"After local officials received many private complaints & a public protest was held, CMLL/Arena Coliseo were charged with fraud & heavily fined for last week's 50th Anniversary (4/4/93) show. The company accepted the fine but did not comment on the matter."
May 15, 1958: "On the show in Reynosa a fan threw a bottle at El Gladiador's face. He manged to move at the last moment & left the ring to get justice. The fan made a dash for the exit but Carnicero Butcher was waiting there. He handed him over to El Gladiador..."

I don't know if this is related or not but the news breaks days later that Marco Moreno (of the Morenos who own Arena Naucalpan) has been fired from CMLL. He was working in the departamento de programacion (booking). SuperLuchas insinuates these stories are connected.

My *assumption* is someone had to pay the piper once the family found out one of their shows cost them money instead of making them money. That's not how CMLL business is supposed to work.

14 year old Rob: I wish I knew Spanish so I could understand the announcers, it would probably help me understand this world of lucha libre better. @pantherwagner: 🙄🙄🙄

We discussed Mascarita Sagrada & at no point did I mention the name Tzuki. That's how serious I am about making sure the original Sagrada gets his due. Always great chatting with Joe & Rich.

This is all I want from my lucha libre, is that too much to ask for?

The guy in the photo is the CMLL guy/Andrade cousin Brillante Jr. "Briyante" is a indie north Mexico/Texas guy who's changed his name's spelling to stop this from happening. Both are good but they are different humans.
