CMLL on Fox Sports Espanol

For the show that aired on Sept. 17, 2006.

Yes soccer went long again, about 18 minutes long, making this a 42 minute show. Why did FSE even agree to this show if they weren’t committed to it? In any event:

In the Myths & Legends segments they interviewed Mano Negra throughout the show. Mano Negra talked about himself in the 3rd person.

Hooligan, Loco Max, Arkangel De La Muerte vs Stuka Jr., Tigre Metalico, Tigre Blanco

1st Fall: Max was wearing his Superman outfit again, about Stuka, only in Mexico can a guy in a Nazi getup be a tecnico. Arkangel & Stuka start it off. Starts off slowly, doing basic grappling moves. After a while, Hooligan & Blanco get in. They armdrag each other a few times then Blanco does a flying head scissors to him to the outside. Then suddenly Metalico does a headbutt tope to Arkangel and pins him for the 3 count, and Stuka submits Max to an ab. stretch.

Mano Negra talked about the rumors he had something hidden in his gloved hand. He said no.

2nd Fall: I’m amazed we got a 2nd fall. Metalico & Arkangel chop each other. Metalico used the ropes to flip over Arkangel and armdrag him a couple of times. However the rudos started a beat down at this point. Max does a figure four leglock and submits Blanco. He was the Captain so that ended this fall. They Stinger Splash Metalico, Max drop kicks in the back, they put a gang submission hold on him, but Blanco being the captain the fall was over.

This is where they clipped the show, no 3rd fall to this match, and the next match would pick up in the 2nd fall.

Averno, Mephisto, Olimpico vs Satanico, Heavy Metal, Negro Casas

2nd Fall: The tecnicos are getting beaten on by the rudos. Averno wrapped Satancio’s legs around the ringpost. Averno & Mephisto pick up Heavy and drop his head on the apron. The tecnicos start a comeback at this point. Satanico pinned Mephisto with a standing figure four. Heavy pinned Olimpico with a Casita.

3rd Fall: Olimpico chops Heavy and Heavy responds with quebradoras and armdrags. Satanico punches it out with Mephisto. Heavy baseball slides Olimpico. Satanico drops an elbow to Mephisto on the floor. Negro tried for a Casita but Averno managed to reverse it and do a Casita to him pinning Negro with his own move, winning the match.

And that wrapped up this 42 minute show. I really wish FSE had a repeat showing of these shows, but they don’t.
