LuchaWorld Podcast Ep. #114!!! Lots of news!!!

Rush, Dragon Lee & Bestia del Ring gone from CMLL!
CMLL 86th Anniversary recap!
Rush wins the ROH Title!
CMLL going thru some problems!
What's next for Rush, Dragon Lee & CMLL?
Could more talent be leaving CMLL?

I did the podcast in a timeline fashion, so you can get the idea of how this all came down from talent being disgruntled, Paco Alonso's passing & how it impacted the company's hierarchy, the good and bad that's gone on with CMLL since then and leading up to a crazy Friday night of lucha news.

Recorded on 9/4/09:

Dr. Lucha joins Slammin' Stan Podcast & actually suggests CMLL team Rush & La Mascara. This is years before they teamed along with La Sombra to form Los Ingobernables. Except Dr. Lucha was joking given that CMLL when Rush first started would list his name as either "Rush" or "Rogue" and would pronounce it differently too. Dr. Lucha also is an easy grader and gives a positive star-rating to one of the worst matches of all-time & tells us he's seen worse.
