Homenaje a Dos Leyendas preview

This is CMLL's annual show paying tribute to two legends of lucha libre. Every edition of the show homages Salvador Lutteroth (who founded the promotion in 1933), and the other spot features a different legend ever year--in this case, Tony Salazar.

The main attraction tonight is the arrival of several big names from AEW. CMLL is very particular about who they work with--they can afford to be, because they literally own Arena Mexico, which gives them the leverage to run their business exactly the way they want. So as much as wrestlers dream of wrestling in Madison Square Garden or the Tokyo Dome, Arena Mexico right up there on the bucket list.

To my knowledge, the only legal way to watch this show live outside of Mexico is on CMLL's official Youtube channel, when you join the "Fan Leyenda" tier for $34.99 USD per month. I haven't heard if there'll be English commentary, and I wouldn't hold my breath expecting any. The show kicks off at 10:30pm Eastern time, so plan on staying up past your bedtime.

Jon Moxley & Bryan Danielson & Claudio Castagnoli & Matt Sydal vs. Mistico & Volador Jr. & Blue Panther & Ultimo Guerrero - As is traditional in lucha libre, this match is scheduled for the best two out of three falls. Originally this was supposed to be all four members of AEW's Blackpool Combat Club coming in to fight four luchadors. But Wheeler Yuta still isn't medically cleared to compete, so Sydal is coming in as a last-minute replacement.

The BCC has had it out for CMLL in general since January 31, when a group of luchadors (including Mistico and Volador) attended an AEW show at ringside. Moxley flipped them off, and they ran in to clobber him. Since then we've seen a number of AEW vs. CMLL matches on AEW television, mostly involving Moxley, Danielson, and Castagnoli. (Sydal has been doing jobs for the CMLL guys, which probably has a lot to do with why he was chosen as Yuta's alternate.) Now the BCC has come to Mexico to take the fight to enemy territory.

The CMLL side is about as loaded as they can get it. Mistico is such a big deal in Mexico that WWE signed him in 2011, and although his run as the first Sin Cara was a misfire, he was able to come back and pick up where he left off. Panther, 63, and Guerrero, 52, may seem too old to be headlining, but Danielson has been waiting for a chance to work with Panther, as has Castagnoli with Ultimo. Volador, in comparison, feels like "just a guy" here, and I assume his role is to carry a lot of the match to compensate for Panther and Ultimo, and possibly to lose a fall.

My gut feeling is that CMLL will want the BCC to lose here, to make up for all the times that the BCC went over CMLL guys in the past couple of months. Clearly Sydal is here to make it easy for the AEW team to do the job while protecting Moxley, Danielson, and Castagnoli. The big question coming out of this match is whether this is a one-off, or if AEW talent will keep coming in. If the AEW side wins, I think that will tell us that more is planned for the future. But even if there are plans, CMLL's side could win and they could just set up an angle post-match.

Atlantis Jr. & Soberano Jr. vs. Mascara Dorada & Rocky Romero - This is the final in CMLL's annual Torneo Nacional de Parejas Increíbles, where technicos (babyfaces) and rudos (heels) are forced to team up. The concept should be painfully familiar to AEW fans who enjoyed the unlikely duo of Adam Cole and MJF in a similar tournament last year. I have no idea what the stakes are for this tournament; in the US you'd need to offer a tag title shot to get the heels and faces to put aside their differences, but for all I know in CMLL they're just doing it for the sake of competition and tradition.

Outside of Mexico, Dorada is mainly known for his runs in WWE, AEW, and ROH as Gran Metalik, though of late he's returned to the Mascara Dorada name. Atlantis recently lost to Chris Jerich on AEW television. Atlantis and Soberano were teammates in New Japan's 2023 World Tag League tournament, which didn't go well for either of them. Soberano and Romero are in a heel faction together; I read that Soberano recenly asked Rocky to help him become a US citizen, which is pretty damn heelish for Mexico. Behind the scenes, Rocky has been a key player in smoothing out relations between New Japan, AEW, and CMLL.

I'm not sure what to expect here. Seeing a US promotion do a parejas increibles match probably can't prepare you for the real thing in Mexico, and the ones I've watched in AAA were such chaotic brawls that it didn't make much difference who was on what side. I guess this could go either way.

Willow Nightingale & Tessa Blanchard & La Catalina vs. Stephanie Vaquer & Zeuxis & Lluvia - This will be determined by the best two out of three falls. Willow is the big name coming in from AEW. Blanchard seems to have burned her bridges all over the US, so if you've been wondering whatever happened to her, she's in CMLL. Catalina is from Chile, which is interesting since I've heard there's a pro wrestling scene over there but I haven't seen much from it.

Vaquer is the CMLL women's world champion, and recently she captured the STRONG women's title from Guilia, who won it from Willow. She and Zeuxis are the CMLL women's tag champions. I didn't come up with any info on Lluiva, but I think she's the only technico in the match. Maybe she and Willow will bond over being true-blue good guys, but I doubt it. I'd personally book Willow to pin Vaquer to set up a championship match, but CMLL may not be ready to commit to that.

Pierrothito vs. Pequeno Olimpico vs. Acero vs. Angelito - This is a four-way match where the loser will be compelled to unmask and reveal his true identity to the public. I'm unclear on the rules here. I suppose it could be like a four-way in the US, where there's only one fall to a finish. But if may be a deal where each man eliminates himself from the match by scoring a fall, and the last man left is the loser.

I've seen this billed as a minis match, but as far as I can tell all the participants are at least five feet tall, so I think Mexico just kinda stretches the definition of "minis." I don't have any info on these wrestlers, but it's always a big deal when a luchador loses his mask, so that alone should make it entertaining.

El Barbaro Cavernario vs. Averno - Averno is challenging for the CMLL world light heavyweight title. Barbaro has a caveman gimmick, which is such an awesome idea and I can't believe he and Caveman UGG are the only ones in the world smart enough to do this.

Cavernario and Averno are both rudos in rudo factions, but their factions have been feuding nonetheless. I assume Los Barbaros and Los Infernales will do run-ins and shit. I have no idea if they'll do a title change, but I'm pulling for Captain Caveman.

Esfinge vs. Zandokan Jr. - Esfinge is defending the Mexican national light heavyweight championship. So, okay--CMLL has multiple sets of title belts. There's the CMLL world and regional titles, the "world historic" titles (based on the lineage of NWA belts that CMLL used to feature), and the national titles. The national championships are technically sanctioned by the Mexican athletic commission, but as I understand it the commission lets CMLL control them.

AEW fans will remember Esfinge from the February 10 episode of Collision, when he and Star Jr. lost to Jon Moxley and Claudio Castagnoli. New Japan fans will remember Zandokan from the 2023 World Tag League tournament, when he came in to team with Yota Tsuji. None of that gives me any sense of how this match will go, but I like Zandokan so I guess I'm rooting for him.

Magnus & Rugido vs. Brillante Jr. & Neon - This is for the Mexican national tag team title; Magnus and Rugido are the defending champions. TheCubsFan says this will likely be a pre-show match on Facebook, but if that's the case I don't think I'll bother trying to make sure I see it. The champs both appeared on the March 1 episode of Rampage, where Magnus qualified to appear in the scramble match on the Revolution pay-per-view. I have no idea who wins, but I suppose I'll punt and pick the champs to retain.
