this article refers to Perro Aguayo Jr.'s yet promotion and not specifically of the faction
In October of 2008, Perro Aguayo Jr. left CMLL to form his own promotion focusing on independent talent. The promotion, using the same name of his Perros del Mal faction, debuted on December 7th in Mexico City. The show was taped for television, but no broadcast date/location or future show in this location was announced. The promotion appears to be planning to run similar shows around the country.
Among the aims for the promotion is to create a home for independent wrestlers, allowing them come and go freely. The exact talent roster is not stable between shows as a result of that freedom; everyone who is there is there for that day. Perro Aguayo Jr. and the rest of Los Perros are expected to continue be the tent pole, with various independent names being brought in based on availability and interest.
Other goals of this promotion including modernizing lucha libre (moving away from CMLL's presentation and towards something more like the US promotions), allowing the fans to interact more with the luchadors, and lowering ticket prices so more fans would have access to the biggest matches.
CMLL Connection
This promotion was originally designed to be a companion to CMLL; Perro would still run the shows and himself stay out of CMLL for some time, but CMLL would allow their talent to work Perro's shows as a partner, and Perro would be free to present a different presentation of lucha libre. Before this deal was officially announced, CMLL and Perro has a falling out, CMLL withdrew their talent, and Perro decided to continue his plans without them. In response, CMLL counted the debut show with a loaded Arena Mexico show of their own, at cheap ticket prices.
CMLL talked about their own show as just something extra for the fans, but also scheduled a large show for the following weekend in Guadalajara, an unusual event. That show runs against a lucha libre festival which has Perro Aguayo Jr. in the main event, making it clear CMLL is anxious to make things to tough for Perro for leaving them.
First Show Results
- Dr. Markus & Gran Markus Jr. II b Bugambilia & Metal Boy
- Esther Moreno & Martha Villalobos b Ayako Hamada & Rossy Moreno
- Black Spirit, Súper Nova, Turbo b Black Thunder, Cerebro Negro, X-Fly
- Intocable, Rayman, Super Crazy b Damián 666, Head Hunter II, Mr. Águila
- Cibernetico, Dr. Wagner Jr., el Hijo del Perro Aguayo b Head Hunter I, LA Park, Olimpico
This was Cibernetico's first major since announcing his departure from AAA. Many other luchadors on this show had left either CMLL or AAA (or, in Super Crazy's case, WWE) in the prior year.
