Event Notes: Notes column explains EMLL wanted to raise prices for the Lagarde/Demon match, but Mexico City’s La Oficina de Espectaculos strongly opposed it. EMLL didn’t change prices but also no longer ran the title match. Box y Lucha all but says Lagarde was winning the title. This title change happens a month later.
