Bryan Danielson's dream is about to come true as tomorrow night the Black Pool Combat Club (and Matt Sydal) take on Blue Panther, Mistico, Volador Jr. and Ultimo Guerrero from a sold out Arena Mexico.

The show will stream on Youtube at 8:30 PM Local Time (US Mountain Time) and 10:30 Eastern. The main event will probably go into the ring at 12:30.

To order you must subscribe to the Fan Leyenda tier of CMLL's Youtube Channel. This costs $35. The channel is here: https://www.youtube.com/@VideosOficialesCMLL The lower priced tiers only get the show as a VOD 9 days after the fact. Also do not try to subscribe on an iPhone or iPad!

Just make sure you cancel before the subscription renews unless you are like me and really want to spend $35 per month on CMLL. Everyone should!

The Card:
A Ceremony to Honor Tony Salazar
Magnus & Rugido © vs Brillante Jr. & Neón for the Mexican National Tag Team Championship
Esfinge © versus Zandokan Jr. for the Mexican Light Heavyweight Championship
Bárbaro Cavernario © versus Averno for the CMLL Light Heavyweight Championship
Angelito vs Pierrothito vs Acero vs Pequeño Olímpico in a mask match
Lluvia, Stephanie Vaquer, Zeuxis vs La Catalina, Tessa Blanchard, Willow Nightingale
Máscara Dorada & Rocky Romero vs Atlantis Jr. & Soberano Jr. in the Torneo Incredible de Parejas final
Bryan Danielson, Claudio Castagnoli, Jon Moxley, Matt Sydal vs Blue Panther, Místico, Último Guerrero, Volador Jr.

Of the wrestlers yet to appear in AEW I'm guessing people will be most impressed by Neon and Cavernario, although at this point I think most people in this forum have seen The Barbarian Caveman.

Overall three of the matches are guaranteed to be great, the Incredible Partners match could either be really good or really funny if it's just setting up future matches, and I don't think anything will be bad. The women's match could potentially be clunky but I am really excited to see Willow be a heel in Arena Mexico.

I'm almost sad Blue Panther will be remasking for the main event because him looking so old and out of shape makes for a great visual when he wrestles and would make for lots of bad faith posts from the AEW hate crew on twitter.

CMLL has been on fire for about a year and a half and after a couple of weaker shows because of the tournament (most CMLL tournaments are bad until the finals) we are set for one of the best shows of the year.

Edit: could a mod please change the thread title to 3/29 not 3/28. I wanted to post the thread early so people knew when it was and the weird start time and hosed up!

The Friday shows have worked out pretty well, the first two Tuesday broadcasts on the new service were disasters, but I think this will be fine.

There is a press conference and I guess Bryce is there too. Would be funny if he is going to do rudo ref stuff.

From what I've heard the shows, especially the Friday show, are really big for tourists to Mexico City so they usually have pretty big and excited (and drunk) crowds

Arena Mexico and CMLL's school is why AAA really can't have long runs on top. Arena Mexico has a unique atmosphere that no other building has and CMLL just produces amazing young talent at a rate no other school can match.

Plus also AAA booking being insane

I haven't watched a CMLL show top to bottom before but this card seems pretty good. I've heard good things about Brillante Jr. and Neon I think? And Esfinge and Zandokan Jr. are cool.

It took until Grand Prix last year for me to actually break down and buy a stand alone CMLL PPV and I was very sad at having been without CMLL for so long. Their track record was very bad, but they have been streaming on youtube for so long that even with the problems with the Tuesdays shows I trust them.

Oh and two things to keep in mind if you don't watch lucha and CMLL specifically:

Leaving the ring counts as a tag and your partner can come in although sometimes they will just come in.

Mascots, especially KeMalito will come in and do spots in front of the ref and it's not a DQ. It works like assist trophies in Smash, except you get one per match. It's in the rules go check

is everything on this show one fall except for the womens trios? drat thats intense, serious lucha

(except the main where presumably matt sydal did not want to take a pointless pin)

Yes, the title matches are definitely one fall and the main definitely is. Four way should be 2/3 falls to make it funnier but is not.
