Removed a defense listed as 10/19/1992 @ Puebla; reports from the time say Canek lost two straight in trios to [[Torre Infernale]], setting up a title match between those two on 10/26. Scorpio was done on 10/25, but perhaps the match actually happened earlier? --[[User:Nkhan|thecubsfan]] 05:42, 10 January 2012 (UTC) | Removed a defense listed as 10/19/1992 @ Puebla; reports from the time say Canek lost two straight in trios to [[Torre Infernale]], setting up a title match between those two on 10/26.

Box Y Lucha 1816 (cover date 1987-10-30) has an interview introducing [[Killer]]. He's an American star who's had also had success in Japan and has a (unnamed) manager at this point. There's no mention of him winning the UWA title yet and he's not even on the El Toreo card. The Canek/Killer/Canek title changes would've had to happen in November or December if they were in that year. --[[User:Nkhan|thecubsfan]] ([[User talk:Nkhan|talk]]) 15:56, 2 October 2013 (CDT) | |||

Enrique Vera
So how did Enrique Vera become champ for a week? That triangle match? --thecubsfan 19:25, 22 June 2006 (CDT)
Yeah, off the top of my head it was him/Canek/Dos Caras which led to controversy. Just a way for Canek to become champ in the end anyhow.:)--Robert 19:29, 22 June 2006 (CDT)
Sergio Cronicas Y Leyendas has Vera winning the belt in 1983, which is a year before what we have for that triangle match.

Do we have the date wrong, or did he actually win the title for a while (to give him credibility before he got wiped out in the IWGP tournament?) --thecubsfan 04:12, 9 February 2011 (UTC)
In an exciting update to this story, this SuperLuchas has an article on 10/23/1983 show where the triangle match happened. At the end of the show, it appeared Vera had definitely won the title. Which means I may need to add a title reign and definitely need to at least explain this on the actual page ;) --thecubsfan (talk) 03:44, 21 May 2012 (UTC)
