THE LUCHA REPORT

NEWS

AAA posted on their website today that there are rumors going around that the WWE was looking at bringing in Ozz and he commented that he wasn’t aware of such rumors until his wife saw them online and there is really nothing to them. Ozz said though that if AAA wants him to go to the WWE as a talent exchange then he doesn’t have much control of that matter. I don’t know what to think of this.

Box y Lucha reported in their latest issue that Picudo & Espectro de Ultratumba have also left AAA in recent days raising that departure list a little higher.

Juventud Guerrera has scheduled a press conference for tomorrow where he will go into detail what has happened between him & AAA and I’m sure he will be addressing the little skit that they did about his situation last Friday in Neza. Speaking of this, AAA’s website posted an article that compared this skit to the skit that the WWE did over 11 years ago mocking the Survivor Series in Montreal situation with Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels, & Vince McMahon basically explaining what the joke was about. I never thought that Montreal would make it’s way to Mexico.

Sicodelico Jr. announced on his MySpace that he has signed his WWE developmental contract even with a picture of said contract and will be starting in Florida Championship Wrestling soon.

Super Astro stated in an interview that AAA & WWE are changing the sport of wrestling in Mexico and not for the better because it is taking away from the cleanness of the sport. Astro said that he thinks that fans want to see true lucha libre and the shows that he works the people are fascinated by their style of lucha libre. Astro said that screwjob finishes, steel cages, and matches involving weapons just make a mess of the sport and he’s getting tired of watching it progress further in that direction and before long the fans will get bored of that style. Astro said that the fans are probably into a grittier style of wrestling right now but like he said they will come back to the traditional fold. Astro thinks that the minds behind that style thinks they are going to change the sport forever but the true form of lucha libre will reign in the end. Astro was asked about current WWE star and former pupil of his Rey Misterio Jr. and he said that Rey is trying to keep the traditional style alive in the WWE and it’s an honor to see how much he has grown over the years as a superstar.
