WEEKLY PROMOCIONES

CMLL

The last Friday at Arena Mexico in Viernes Espectacular. CMLL had a great tournament and a great main event. CMLL has started with the first phase of Gran Alternative. This tournament is about to give the opportunity to the rookies where they are supported by a great star of CMLL. This phase participated Mistico with Fugaz, Ultimo Guerrero and Difunto, Volador Jr and Dulce Gardenia, Mr. Niebla and Espiritu Negro, Diamante Azul and Retro, Terrible and El Coyote, Stuka Jr and Arkalis, Mephisto and Grako.

This phase is for elimination and the first phase final was between Mistico and Fugaz against Volador Jr and Dulce Gardenia. Where Dulce Gardenia defeated Fugaz with Canadian Destroyer then Mistico could defeat Dulce Gardenia. And the final Mistico and Volador had to decide what team will pass to the final. Volador was surprising with La Mistica…Mistico and Fugaz must wait until the next week to know who are the team that they will fight the final.

The main event of the night was for CMLL Tag Team Championships. Euforia and Gran Guerrero got the opportunity one more time to Chavez Brothers (Angle de Oro and Niebla Roja) for the belts. These teams have had many matches and they have a great rivalry. Los Guerreros put the belts in the line at Arena Puebla against Chavez Brothers and they retained their belts. These four men are amazing, the match was great and the crowd was supporting both sides. Chavez Brothers gave all their army with great combinations and great moonsaults but Los Guerreros showed why are the champs and the last fall and the match Los Guerreros with a double submission to retained one more time CMLL Tag Team Championships.

The second phase of Gran Alternativa was announced and this tournament will continue at Arena Mexico in Viernes Espectacular where we will know the second team finalist and this great tournament.

They are great luchadors and we know they will leave all in the ring.

CMLL has also announced that their roster will never participate with other indy promotions and in CMLL’s card won’t have luchadors compete for various indies. This change had actions indirectly where CMLL’s roster that was announced to The Crash for 05 Oct. They didn’t show up. We hope that CMLL changes their point of view for CMLL’s audience.
