Written By Robert Bihari Lucha Libre Azteca Vol. 74: Los Orientales I y II/Tigre Universitario vs. Gitano del Norte/Golden Boy/Rey Hechicero: I didn’t even recognize Gitano Del Norte without his mask. This match was used to build the feud with Hechicero (now a rudo) and Tigre (now a tecnico). They both had their masks ripped. [...]

Written By Robert Bihari Lucha Libre Azteca Vol. 72: Diluvio Negro I/Diluvio Negro II/Principe Rebelde vs. Caifan Rockero I/Gato Volador/Silver Star (joined in progress): Joined as Gato Volador is wiping a bunch of blood off his face so we kinda missed most of the fun. Forget how it ended but it wasn’t much. Brazo de [...]

Written By Robert Bihari Lucha Libre Azteca Vol. 73: This was the ‘Puerta al Infierno’ show which was supposed to have 8 masks on the line in the main event but of course on the day of the show with such few fans paying in advance they added guys with hair at the last second [...]

Written By Robert Bihari Lucha Libre Azteca Vol. 62: Chica De Arabia/Chica De Arcoiris/Oro Negro vs Coco Viper/Flecha Azul/Memo Valle: You wouldn’t know it from their names but the first team all play exoticos for some reason.

Written By Robert Bihari Lucha Libre Azteca Vol. 58: Dark Angel/Sahori vs La Amapola/Princesa Sujei: Really solid tag match. Rudas were bump machines and Amapola in particular made Sahori look like a million bucks for an entire two minute period in the first fall. Both tecnicas hit dives and then won with a pin/submission combo. [...]

Written By Robert Bihari Lucha Libre Azteca Vol. 55: 11/12/06: Tigre Universitario vs Loco Max – WWA Middleweight Title: BAD. I’m not a fan of Loco Max at all… and yes – I’ve seen that GdR/FSE segment with him and his family. Touching but he still sucks. (FREDO’s NOTE: Father/son wore matching fanny packs!) This [...]

Written By Robert Bihari ‘Duelo De Titanes’ 12/16/06 at Arena Monterrey: I had to check this out right away b/c I heard the main event was fantastic and it had the mini’s in the opener. It sure started off with a bang… 3 for 3 in fact! The work was beyond awesome by everyone. It [...]

Written By Alfredo Esparza Taped 1/13/08 Gimnasio Nuevo Leon: 1) Bengali/Oriental I (really is Oriental II)/Vaquero Romo vs. Coco Viper/Gitano del Norte/Golden Boy ARGH! First off, I’m disappointed that in the previous show, they aired commercials were they announced Difuntos vs. Orientales and it didn’t happen. The announcers are thrilled about the return of Vaquero [...]
