Written By Alfredo Esparza Vandal Drummond (Kurt Brown) and I decided to make the trip to East LA on a cloudy Sunday afternoon to the UIPW LA show. Actually, we had planned this awhile ago when Kris Zellner first posted the lineup and we saw Guerrero Maya Jr’s name on it. Not to mention several [...]

The final weeks of 2012 led to a lot of talk about what’s wrong with lucha libre and why is attendance down. I recapped the tercera caida show with guests from CMLL and AAA on the panel. Hijo del Santo wrote a column on the subject as well. The show Tribunal Televisa Deportes aired a [...]

What better way to lead to Easter Sunday than having a Slammin’ Saturday Night in Simi Valley at an MPW wresting show? Dr. Lucha made his way down for this show as apparently he hadn’t seen enough wrestling the previous week at Miami attending Wrestlemania 28, Dragon Gate USA, and two Ring Of Honor shows [...]
