NEWS

Arena Coliseo de Reynosa which has been in operation for the last 50 years or so will be shutting their doors very soon as the current owners of the building want to move onto other business ventures. They tried to sell the building to the various local promoters who have used it over the years but no one was willing to take the risk of trying to remodel the venue which was starting to deteoriate. The building has been sold to someone who is planning on demolishing the building and using the land for other ventures.

CMLL announced last night that their annual Dos Leyendas show will take place on 3/21 at Arena Mexico.

The former Mistico & Sin Cara is being promoted as working the Baja Stars Wrestling show at Auditorio Municipal de Tijuana on March 1st. Nothing is definite although an announcement has been teased for next week but his brother Argenis stated last night that this news in particular wasn’t true. More on this as it comes but one thing for sure is that in recent photos he has tweeted, the former Mistico/Sin Cara has added quite a bit of muscle mass to his frame.
