I was informed twitlonger is apparently not functioning any longer so here is the new pinned post with links to my Google Drive of old music videos: etextpad.com/offyf1g71p

Very little brings me greater joy than watching cocaine fueled Jerry Estrada. Legend.
Jerry Estrada lands right on his fucking head going full speed. Keeps going like nothing happened. Cocaine is a hell of a drug!

You don't realize how valuable LuchaDB is until you've spent 15 mins searching YouTube for a certain match, then ponder who may have access to said match, before finally realizing some jackass named Rob Bihari has it mislabeled on his channel.

Next CMLL staffed Arena Queretaro show is the day after AEW Winter is Coming in Monterrey. That silhouette figure looks familiar, I just can't put my fajita on who it is... 🤔

Really liked that Fenix/Cartwheel/Laredo/Takuma match. I'm sick of 3/4/etc ways but when done right they work & this one was done right. A lot of creative stuff & built very well to the finish. It went 11 minutes which was perfect, felt like 20 minutes of action.

As a second aside - current day AAA even w/ WWE's influence still passes for authentic AAA so much more than current day CMLL does to any CMLL era of the past. They've thrown out their entire identity. It's too complex to expand on here but it hit hard during Darby/Hechicero*.

(* -> which I liked! But also made me feel like I was watching AEW, which is not why I used to turn on CMLL every Friday. Also, the fan shot videos w/ working audio, unlike CMLL's shit stream, make it clear that match did not have much heat. Live audience ≠ Twitter audience.)

With Tania's passing today I should note she is the answer to a very fun obscure trivia question! Who is the only wrestler in the history of CMLL to win an apuesta match 3 falls to 0? She is. On July 19/1987 she beat Karina in a hair match.
Con mucho dolor nos unimos a la pena de la familia, amistades y compañeros por el lamentable fallecimiento de Tania La Guerrillera. Con mucho cariño, respeto y siempre la recordaremos como una gran estrella femenil en la historia de la Lucha Libre. En Paz Descanse 🙏🕊️

Tania won the first fall via submission. She won the second fall as well but it was a disputed finish. The commissioner got involved & ordered an immediate sudden death third fall. Tania won that fall as well, giving her a 3-0 victory & Karina's hair.

Maria Del Angel/La Diabolica/Tania were referred to as Las Infernales for many years any time they teamed together though history has been re-written to not acknowledge them as such. Satanico approved the team name & even had Tania escort Los Infernales to the ring many times.

"Hey man! Let's go... wrestling!"
I have no issue with Veda but this is the English commentary I want on my CMLL programming.

Women's month is over, Dia de Muertos week (?) is over, it's early November... you know what that means, right? It's time for some random undercard wrestlers or minis who have barely existed all year long to suddenly start ripping masks & fouling each other until January 1.
"send them to hell but not deep hell, they've got to be back to unmask in about five minutes"

Then on January 2 life returns to normal, they return to irrelevancy & it's like nothing ever happened the next time the same wrestlers see each other. A CMLL tradition. (that means this Friday's poster drop is the one time a year you should actually take note of the opener)
