The Road to September 16th!
Here's a little fantasy booking from my deranged mind! I decided to attempt to plan out CMLL's entire timeline until the Anniversary Show on September 16th (a date I am assuming, it has not been confirmed yet). This is realistic style fantasy booking though so I had rules:
1. No using Sombra/Strongman while they are in Japan for the G-1.
2. I was told the Universal Title tournament will take place in August so I worked it into the booking.
3. No insane scenarios like Rey Cometa suddenly main eventing.
So here we go...
"Rumbo a Aniversario"
The main idea here is I don't think CMLL is going to do another singles matches after having La Mascara vs Averno recently. Also, they haven't done a cage match yet this year so odds are that is the direction they will head in. I don't think CMLL eve has any match with two guys that could be a big enough match on it's own unless we're talking Atlantis vs Ultimo Guerrero but that isn't happening this fast.
July 29, 2011 @ Arena Mexico
-----------------------------
Torneo Cibernetico for the Leyenda Azul:
- Atlantis accidentally causes Ultimo Guerrero to be eliminated and they tease problems between the two with Atlantis storming off angry.
- Final four end up as Shocker/Rush vs Terrible/Texano. Texano/Terrible cheat to eliminate Shocker leaving it 2-on-1 against Rush. Rush fights back and eliminates Terrible. Rudos cheat once again and Texano uses a low blow to beat Rush and win the Leyenda Azul. Both teams challenge each other afterwards.
La Mascara vs Averno - NWA Middleweight Title:
- Hijo Del Fantasma/Mephisto are the seconds.
- Match ends with a disputed finish as the referee gets knocked down and Mephisto enters the ring to low blow La Mascara. Fantasma gets in the ring, dropkicks Mephisto outside and low blows Averno in revenge but the referee gets up just in time to see this and disqualifies La Mascara so Averno retains his title.
July 31, 2011 @ Arena Coliseo
------------------------------
La Mascara/Mascara Dorada/Shocker vs Volador Jr./Alebrije/Hector Garza:
- In the main event Hector Garza again has problems with his teammates and walks out on Volador/Alebrije. During the match Volador/Mascara Dorada rip at each other's masks.
August 5, 2011 @ Arena Mexico
------------------------------
Atlantis/Ultimo Guerrero/Dragon Rojo Jr. vs Negro Casas/Felino/Mr. Niebla:
- Everyone is awaiting Atlantis and Ultimo Guerrero to turn on each other but they actually work well together throughout the match.
- The shocking moment occurs at the end of the match as Negro Casas and Felino turn on Mr. Niebla! They are jealous of how popular he is and how he doesn't act like a rudo any more. Felino drags Zacarias away with him and Negro post-match.
- Atlantis feels bad for Mr. Niebla and goes to try and help him up but Ultimo Guerrero pulls him away.
Shocker/Rush/La Mascara vs Terrible/Texano/Rey Bucanero:
- Usual match with Shocker/Rush feuding with Terrible/Texano. The rudos cheat again to win the match. Afterwards they challenge each other to a double hair match with Terrible pointing out that he and Shocker have been the two wrestlers around in CMLL the longest without losing their hair.

September 2, 2011 @ Arena Mexico
---------------------------------
The 'Rumbo a Aniversario' starts with a battle royale to decide the match-ups.
Round 1:
Atlantis/Ultimo Guerrero vs Valiente/Polvora
- Before the match Ultimo Guerrero apologizes to Atlantis and tells him they need to work together to save their masks and they can easily beat Valiente/Polvora. Of course during the match they have some miscommunication issues and Valiente/Polvora pull off a shocker upset! LOSERS: Atlantis/Ultimo Guerrero
Volador Jr./Mascara Dorada vs La Mascara/Averno
- The rudos refuse to follow the rules and end up teaming for most of the match. Volador Jr./Dorada end up winning and Averno steals La Mascara's mask afterwards. LOSERS: La Mascara/Averno
Hijo Del Fantasma/Mephisto vs Sombra/Psicosis
- During the match Mephisto turns on Hijo Del Fantasma and leaves him alone to get destroyed. Fantasma fights back and manages to beat both Sombra and Psicosis on his own! Mephisto is not happy with this turn of events even though he keeps his mask. LOSERS: Sombra/Psicosis
Felino/Mr. Niebla vs Shocker/Terrible
- Quemonito comes out with Shocker to counter the inference of Zacarias. This re-unites the team of Niebla/Monito against Felino/Zacarias! They end up winning easily. LOSERS: Shocker/Terrible
Blue Panther/Negro Casas vs Sangre Azteca/Misterioso II
- Both teams dislike each other but Azteca/Misterioso get it together quickly and use some of their old Poder Mexica tag team moves to win the match. LOSERS: Blue Panther/Negro Casas
Hector Garza/Naito vs Rush/Texano
- Nobody is getting along here and it turns into an almost four-corners match since Texano and Naito are still enemies from a long time ago. Garza ends up pinning Texano and Naito uses an armbreaker to beat a still "injured" Rush. LOSERS: Rush/Texano
September 9, 2011 @ Arena Mexico
---------------------------------
Mr. Niebla/Mascara Dorada/Strongman w/ Quemonito vs Felino/Rey Bucanero/Jushin Lyger w/ Zacarias
- The main point of this match is to establish Mascara Dorada beating Jushin Lyger clean and challenging him to a title match on the Anniversary Show!
Another battle royale to decide the matches for the rest of the tag team tournament.
Semi-Finals:
Sombra/Psicosis vs Shocker/Terrible
- Double pinfall as Sombra pins Shocker at the same time as Terrible pins Psicosis. This leaves Sombra vs Terrible and Sombra wins clean with his split-legged moonsault to keep his mask! LOSERS: Shocker/Terrible
Rush/Texano vs La Mascara/Averno
- An "injured" Rush battles hard so he won't end up in the cage next week. La Mascara/Averno have lots of problems during the match and at one point Averno shoves La Mascara into Texano who rolls him up and pins him! Averno fights back and pins Texano with the Devils Wings but with the crowd cheering him on Rush surprises Averno with a roll-up! LOSERS: La Mascara/Averno
Atlantis/Ultimo Guerrero vs Blue Panther/Negro Casas
- Once again Ultimo tries to get Atlantis to be his friend but Atlantis is having no part of that. Guerrero is the first to be eliminated and he is really angry because he doesn't think Atlantis can win by himself. Atlantis somehow manages to beat the odds and uses La Atlantida to eliminate Negro Casas! So it comes down to Atlantis vs Blue Panther. Dragon Rojo comes down the ramp to distract the referee and Guerrero tries to help Atlantis but Atlantis shoves him out of the ring! But he turns around right into an armbar from Blue Panther and gives up! LOSERS: Atlantis/Ultimo Guerrero
September 16, 2011 @ Arena Mexico - Anniversary Show
-----------------------------------------------------
SEMI-MAIN EVENT: Jushin Lyger vs Mascara Dorada - CMLL Middleweight Title
- Dorada gets a huge win over Lyger!
MAIN EVENT: Atlantis, Ultimo Guerrero, La Mascara, Averno, Shocker, Terrible - Cage Match (Last one inside loses his hair or mask)
- 3 masks vs 3 hairs! Everyone expects Atlantis vs Ultimo Guerrero to be the final match but it's far too soon for that match to happen. I put Averno here as the proverbial red herring since him losing his hair would be considered the easy way out and lots of people still think he's heading to the WWE. So instead the match finishes with Shocker/Terrible in the cage and Terrible pins Shocker with the Styles Clash to win his hair! Shocker loses his hair for the first time in his career but has the excuse that he wasn't 100% because he was injured for a long time and this sets up Terrible to lose his hair to Rush at some point in the future.
1. No using Sombra/Strongman while they are in Japan for the G-1.
2. I was told the Universal Title tournament will take place in August so I worked it into the booking.
3. No insane scenarios like Rey Cometa suddenly main eventing.

I actually like these ideas a lot. Everything makes sense and leads into the next thing fluidly, which almost guarantees that nothing like this will happen in the buildup. But hey, one can hope!
That's pretty good. UG and Atlantis losing like that to build up their participation in the stip match is good.
A post full of wonderful ideas :) If the booking "agents" pick up at least 25%, we are in for lots of fun.
Thank you for putting thought and heart into it!
