Lucha Talk #168: CMLL Aniversario 92   WE ARE BACK. The duo is back after a year, and we're talking about a lot. We briefly catch up and discuss the great influence that the 2 major companies in America have had on Lucha Libre in 2025 with the tight-knit relationship between AEW & CMLL as well as TKO buying AAA. It's a lot of interesting stuff going on that we talk about and touch on the World's Collide show. Then we finally get down to business when it comes to CMLL Aniversario. CMLL's biggest show of the Year. 3 Apuestas matches and some really great tag matches delivered a really strong show to the México City faithful. We discuss the bloodbath in the semi-main as well and some of where the company will go from here.   Keep your eyes peeled and your ears open, and talk Lucha with us!   @Viva_Zero @MICROMANFEVER

This is a special edition of Lucha Talk talking about the biggest show of the year, CMLL Aniversario 91, a celebration of the world's oldest company entering its 91st year. Dylan and Micro cover everything including the extensive AEW involvement. A show for the ages sets the stage for us to cover and talk about one of the best matches of the entire year anywhere.   Talk Lucha with the trio on X/Twitter: @Viva_Zero @MICROMANFEVER @therealfredo

Lucha Talk is back, talking the biggest show of the year in AAA! A bunch of foreigners get belts, interference in nearly every match, the revelation of the "Eye", a man escapes a cage via balloons and double Psicosis! Triplemania México City! At the end we also talk a little bit about CMLL with the Gran Prix lineups and the two match announcements for Aniversario 91. Weird times in Lucha.   Talk Lucha on Twitter with the Trio: @Viva_Zero @MICROMANFEVER @therealfredo (still missed)

Lucha Talk returns with Dylan & Micro talking TripleMania Tijuana which was somehow less of a horror show than April's AAA offering. Jumping to CMLL we go over a number of things, largely focused on La Copa Jr. VIP & Mistico vs. Magnus, Panther vs. Hechicero with a bit of talk about FantasticaMania Mexico. Finally, Micro went to a couple of shows live in our time off! We talk about Zeuxis vs. Mercedes in AEW & his visit to MLW.   Talk Lucha with us on Twitter:   @Viva_Zero @MicromanFever @therealfredo

Lucha Talk is back and you know what we're talking about, AEW has arrived in Arena México! We talk about Dos Leyendas, the amazing crowd reaction to many of the new viewers who gave CMLL a chance and how hot the company feud has been. In addition we go over the followup, the Super Viernes show this Friday featuring the big time main event, Bryan Danielson vs. Blue Panther! We close the show talking about AAA for some reason, and speculate what the good people of Monterrey did to deserve the card AAA has presented them for their "TripleMania". Talk Lucha with us! Check us out. @Viva_Zero @MICROMANFEVER @therealfredo (he's not around much anymore but he'll always be apart of the Trio!)

Lucha Talk is back, get ready for the Clone Wars! AAA had their Rey de Reyes, one of their biggest shows of the year. Things aren't great as they have multiple re-gimmkck-ings on the table as well as a terrible injury to Hijo del Vikingo, their MEGA Champion. We talk about all of their many issues and then take a turn to greener pastures, CMLL! We talk about their torneo de escuelas, a showcase for the "newer" talents of CMLL and how this year compared to last. We talk about and give a full preview of Homenaje Dos Leyendas which is main evented by AEW talents! Which leads into the discussion of the CMLL/AEW relationship and how the Luchadores have been used so far on their TV (Spoiler: We like it) as well as potentially the future of the relationship. We close out with a bit of talk on Trauma I & Wotan and Hijo del Dr. Wagner Jr. winning the GHC Heavyweight Title in NOAH, the first ever Méxican GHC Heavyweight Champion! Check us out on X (FKA Twitter) and let us know all about any topics, but of course most importantly Lucha Libre and bug Fredo about him being spoiled with Ohtani to the Dodgers! @Viva_Zero @MICROMANFEVER @therealfredo

LUCHA TALK IS BACK. Dylan & Microman Fever have returned to the mic and are back covering Lucha all over Mexico and then all over the Globe. If there was a grade to give, the big companies get an A and an F, and IWRG & the indies as a whole get an I for incomplete for what's been going on. We talk about the best of the whole year in both promotions and hang out talking about some issues with AAA. We then bring it in to talk about the impact Lucha's made on the worldwide stages in 2023, with some focus on AEW's usage of Luchadores, to WWE and how they've handled Dragon Lee this year, all the way to NJPW and the FantasticaMania lineup coming up next month. It's good to be back, and good to kick off 2024 right in this laid back look at Lucha Libre and our hopes for the new year. If you got something to say about Lucha Libre, let us know. Reach out to us: @Viva_Zero @MicromanFever @therealfredo

Dylan and Micro are back talking CMLL's Aniversario Show we watched live, which also features one of the best matches of the whole year and one of the most emotional endings! We go through the rest of the card, and talk about some ups, downs, and a completely rabid fanbase at Arena México for the biggest show in Lucha Libre of the year, celebrating the 90th Anniversary of the world's oldest wrestling promotion! Follow us, talk to us, let Fredo know you miss him. @Viva_Zero @MICROMANFEVER @therealfredo

On this episode we go through the AEW tribute show known as TripleMania XXXI: México City in all it's glory. Very few are safe from criticism but there actually was good to point out on the show too that we go through. Talk Lucha with the Trio (Miss you, Fredo) @Viva_Zero @MICROMANFEVER @therealfredo

Lucha Talk returns with a show talking about TripleMania Tijuana, a show with many many issues we try our best to work through. With Fredo away Dylan & Micro discuss the entire card, questionable decisions and even to the main event we have AEW Star Kenny Omega returning to AAA to face Hijo del Vikingo for the MEGA Title. From there we talk about Villano III Jr. jumping from AAA to CMLL and our hopes for him, then a brief discussion of FantasticaMania for NJPW and CMLL plus the Atlantis 40th Anniversary Show which was a great one with even a strong Apuestas match to boot. Talk Lucha with the Trio on Twitter: @Viva_Zero @MICROMANFEVER @therealfredo

Lucha Talk is back, Fredo is out this month but Dylan & Micro are here talking about everything going on in CMLL including Máscara Dorada 2.0's sudden change along with the original coming back as Metalik, FantasticaMania making it's Mexican debut to bring in the NJPW talent and the big breakup between Los Infernales, plus the Méxican National Women's title plans that all are setting up the Atlantis 40th Anniversary Show. In AAA it's more drama. SB KENTo & Takuma trying to make their way, Rush's back and forth standoff, his brother getting involved, and finally we preview TripleMania Tijuana in full, the craziness involved and the big main event between El Hijo del Vikingo & Kenny Omega for the AAA Mega Title as we head to TripleMania Mexico City.   Talk Lucha with the Trio on Twitter!   @Viva_Zero @MICROMANFEVER @therealfredo

THE TRIO IS BACK! Lucha Talk returns after an extended hiatus with a feel good show with loose outline going over some recent and semi-recent comings and goings in both CMLL like the Rocky Romero & Volador Jr. feud & AAA like with AAA's many TripleManias and the big one coming up with Kenny Omega vs. Hijo del Vikingo. Then we talk about the big spots Luchadores have gotten internationally lately and how they're used. Examples being Komander, Rush & the LWO & even Stephanie Vaquer getting the biggest match of her career vs. Mercedes Moné (AKA Sasha Banks). The format isn't steady but there's a lot of fun talk and match recs too littered throughout. We'll be back at least every month going forward so please join us in talking Lucha Libre! We missed this crazy show!   Follow the Trio on Twitter and PLEASE let us know what you think, what you're liking and what you got to say:   Dylan - @Viva_Zero   Micro - @MICROMANFEVER   Fredo - @therealfredo   Also feel free to send Dylan a match from a non-Mexican Lucha company and it may get spotlighted next episode!

The Trio makes a return in the tough times of today, going over some bad news and good news and even traditional goofy news at times near the end. First we break down the recent accusations going around against Blue Demon Jr. and the horrific ones going against "son & daughter" of Sangre Chicana, then we somehow get to AAA and offer a little of the lawsuit with Lucha Libre FMV preventing growth outside of México (for now). Then we go over the entire Rey de Reyes show with big multiman matches, and a huge main event angle along with the debut of Andrade. Then we have the debut of Andrade in a debuting promotion, Federación Wrestling! Finally we talk about CMLL's latest screwups and how they blew up their relationship with ROH for dumb reasons. Talk Lucha with the Trio on Twitter! We're always there: @DylanZeroSky - @therealfredo - @MICROMANFEVER

Lucha Talk is talking what once looked like an unlikely show at one point that ended up not only happening but ended up being good with 2 great matches to close the show out in TripleMania XXVIII! We run through the entire card, what's been going on in AAA that led up to it in this weird time period with a lack of Lucha and suddenly Micro states his displeasure not only with Molotov, but their fans on top of it while Dylan asserts himself as the true top fútbol expert in Lucha, while Fredo brags about being from LA. But mostly it's about TripleMania. Talk Lucha with the Trio on Twitter: @DylanZeroSky - @MICROMANFEVER - @therealfredo

Lucha Talk is here for the 87th Anniversary Show of CMLL, CMLL Aniversario! We go to the show as voted on by the fans, and changed many many times based on the pandemic and positive tests, rumors, and the matches themselves where somehow Dalys still got in. How did the show do as a show and an Aniversario show? Let's go for it. Talk Lucha with the Trio on Twitter: @DylanZeroSky - @MICROMANFEVER - @therealfredo
