CMLL (SUN) 07/17/2011 Arena Coliseo [CMLL, La Catedral]
***Arkangel 25th Anniversary Show***
1) Starman b Camaleón, Halcón Mágico, Bobby Zavala, Kato, Trueno, Robin, Último Samurai (Guerrero), Warrior Steel, Cocolores, Trox, Flamita, Canelo Casas, Freesbe, Yago, Príncipe Azteca
Referee was Teddy, an indy referee who works (or worked?) for Perros del Mal. Kind of a Royal Rumble style match, but with 2 new wrestlers every 90 seconds. Order of entry was Freesbee & Starman, Canelo Casas & Flamita, Trox & Cocolores, Warrior Steel & Ultimo Samurai, Robin & Trueno, Kato & Bobby Zavala, and Halcon Magico (not Super Halcon - this one turned up in 2006 IWRG teaming with Tiger Kid) & Camaleon. No one was eliminated until the ring filled up. Guys were eliminating themselves by doing dives, including Magico moonsaulting to the floor. Final three were Camaleon, Flamita and Starman, Starman dumping Flamita for the win. Cesar says Flamita and Warrior Steel looked good, and didn't like Robin and Cocolores comedy.
2) Dalis la Caribeña & Lady Afrodita b La Comandante & Mima Shimoda
Lady Afrodita is an Arkangel trainee, making her CMLL debut and getting her first win. One fall basic match.
3) Dr. X, Hooligan, Loco Max, Nitro, Yoshihashi b Cancerbero, Euforia, Pólvora, Raziel, Virus [cibernetico] *
Absolutely no mention of what's become of Skandalo. Order of elimination was Yoshihashi (via Virus), Virus (Hooligan), Hooligan (Raziel), Polvora (Tuareg distracted the refs so Dr. X could toss his own mask to Polvora for the DQ, hmmm), Loco Max (Cancerbero), Raziel (Nitro), Nitro (Cancerbero). That left Dr. X alone against Cancerbero and Euforia, but he beat Euforia and then the big man to take copa home for the Tuareg.
4) Arkángel de la Muerte, Ephesto, Shigeo Okumura b Mr. Cacao, Stuka Jr., Valiente * 
The Tuareg entered with Arkangel before the match, and Arkangel thanked everyone for supporting him. Rudos took 2/3. Arkangel pinned Mr. Cacao in the third fall for the win, then challenged for a mask match.
5) Delta, La Máscara, La Sombra DQ Atlantis, Mephisto, Volador Jr.
No Toscano again, Delta replacing him. Tecnicos took 2/3. Mephisto fouled Sombra for the pin.
Event Notes: Show was preceded by a lucha olimpico demonstration by arkangel's current students.
