Speaking of lucha libre, AAA held their annual Triplemania ppv yesterday and people are considered it to be one of the worst ppv ever, making Heroes Of Wrestling look like a 5 star event.

People are fucking stupid and should actually watch things instead of repeating Meltzer at each other.

It had some major technical issues but the in-ring content wasn't anything too horrible.

Triplemania felt incredibly rushed due to the time constraints. Making the trios title match the annual cage match was just stupid since it took the air out of the midcard.

oh don't get me wrong
It had problems and would have been a lackluster Triplemania even if there hadn't been endless technical issues, but the idea it's on the level of Legends of Wrestling is just hyperbole.
Apparently after they stopped the USA feed some rando from the crowd handed Myzteziz a Perros Del Mal shirt and he put it on. Meaning he may have botched turning serious heel and accidentally joined the cool-heel stable like the nWo instead

Maffew of Botchamania fame said that Triplemania gave him a fair amount of material, Mysteziz being the main provider. Looking forward to it

I would have thought the Villanos would offer more material since their collective age needs scientific notation and one of them had a stroke. I guess they're not big-time enough for Maffew these days ;_;

The Villanos are *still* wrestling?

Didn't Villano V straight out say in an interview his eyesight is pretty much shot and he can barely see?

IV can still sorta go, but yes. The Villanos as in the guys in WCW twenty years ago were the same Villanos that wrestled the Psycho Circus at Triplemania on Sunday.

They were originally setting up for Blue Demon jr vs Villano IV mask v mask, and then dropped that (along with every other plan) for a family-based feud against the clowns. Psycho Clown (leader of the Psycho Circus) was introducing his sister Goya Kong and then Villano ruined everything because Villanos / Brazos (the family Goya and Psycho are from) is an old feud.

Jesus.....

I get that luchadores tend to have long, storied careers, and Mexican fans are big on it, but for crying out loud, one Villano had a stroke, another one can barely see anymore. It's time to pack it in.
 
fancam footage of Myzteziz maybe joining PDM or maybe botching going solo
 
So I was the grocery store.
Some guy has a Cena shirt. One of the really bright orange ones Cena wears that looks like Goku shirts.
Now I'm rocking a La Parka AAA hat so I'm not going to hate on somebody for wearing a goof who can't wrestle for shit.
I go down an aisle.
Apparently he goes down the next aisle over.
"BRAAAAAAAPPLLLEEDOUGH BAAA BAAAAADAAA DAAAAAAAAAA BAA BAAAAADAAA DAAAAAAAAAAAAA- hello?"
His phone rang.

My only question is:

....Where'd you find a La Parka shirt? That's bitching!

Edit: Disregard my saying it was a shirt, I am a tard.

Not a shirt, a hat.
Some guy on ebay (as best I can guess) takes the parts they use for fan masks for kids and mashes them onto hats. You can find them looking for "lucha cap".
I'm pleased with how mine turned out . Fits nice and deep. I was worried it would be a shallow cap.

I just barely started to get into Lucha, and I like CMLL better. Although not knowing Spanish can make watching the Arena Mexico shows a pain to watch, because unlike the Arena Pueblo shows they don't explicitly show a title card alongside a clip of the luchador, so half the time I don't know who's who lol.
 
I don't see all the backlash to SummerSlam. Big deal there was a tainted finish to Taker v. Lesnar. It was a decent match and they have a storyline to build. I can accept it. The Divas match was shit. I liked the tag title match. Cena v. Rollins was good, the ending was stupid, but bottom line, it's the WWE in 2015. Don't expect a 5-star product.

So, have they given any reason to Jon Stewart's heel turn, or will it all be "addressed on Raw"?

Probably be some stupid bullshit. I don't see why Rollins can't get a clean win over Cena at SummerSlam.

Also, what happens with the US Title? I am thinking a tournament on the Network.
