I need to find a money mark for my fantasy shoot style/llaves hybrid promotion. Negro Navarro and Volk Han will be head trainers.

Come to think of it I wonder if anyone other than Norman Smiley worked for both lucha libre and shoot style promotions.

Sombra accepted Atlantis's challenge to a mask match and said they should have it on the Aniversario show. Most people seem skeptical that it actually goes down like that; think Thunder and Ultimo Guerrero will be involved in some way.

rehash of what they did two years ago with rivals on the same team? Probably also including delaying the money match an entire year and infuriating the live audience?

Dave mentioned this in the Observer and it just leaves me wondering: Isn't it a bit weird that CMLL's biggest show is just a month away and they barely even have a card put together?

Maybe that's just the way CMLL operates but it's still weird to me. Imagine if WrestleMania was in a month and WWE didn't even have a main event announced, or kept changing the date every other week.

It's extremely stupid but not weird at all for CMLL which is a very poorly run company

Wrestlemania always has a clear path for a handful of huge matches they've been building too for a while. CMLL just announced a huge match with little build and it's probably not going to be that simple. Basically nobody who follows lucha believes Sombra/Atlantis mask/mask is happening so simply

You'll hear no argument from me either way, friend.

For a more serious answer, I've been digging around my (limited) resources and mostly there's a lot of lucharesu crossover, which would make Shoichi Funaki the obvious answer. Hamada did some work in Battlarts but it was a handful of guest appearances, largely.

The Villanos are old as gently caress and had no business being in a ring in 2015. The Shield couldn't get a passable match out of those guys.

Oh yeah I forgot about the Battlarts/MPro feud. Taka too and maybe Minoru Tanaka if he ever worked Mexico.

One of the Villanos literally had a stroke days before the match. Makes you* think about how all life is finite, tbh.

So apparently not only is Atlantis/Sombra happening but Dr. Wagner Jr. and LA Park are going to be on the Aniversario show in some way, possibly also involving Rush (and Naito?)

Thauros

Dave said that Naito was doing another CMLL tour in September so that would make sense. Looks like this should at least be better than the competition's big show, though it seems strange to unmask a big star with so little build.

Getting show of the year talk from hardcore lucha guys

edit: Yeahh those people might be overselling it a bit but it was a real fun show. Guerrero Maya Sr./Guerrero Maya Jr. was really good, borderline great but pretty much every match had something going for it.
