In case of missing apuesta record, break glass

current projects being worked on

I've completed the title histories -> days project. So glad to be done with that. I'm not going to bother with the Category:Championships (without history) titles; if they're ever fleshed out enough that they belong to the main category, I'll worry about them then. I've also skipped parts of histories where the title was essentially a Japan or US title without any luchadors competiting for it, where it just becomes useless noise to this wiki. I probably included too much of the DG title changes, but enough of the guys worked in IWRG before starting there to make it worthwhile, and the titles often floated back to Mexico.

I'm probably going to spend my idle time working on a non-wiki project for the next while. The next major project for the wiki is going thru the CMLL/AAA rosters, clearing up the dead weight, bringing dates over to the day pages, and writing at least something on every significant person. A paragraph is fine and I can easily write that much on everyone I'd like - it's keeping distilling people like Cibernetico down to a managable size without driving myself nuts that's going to be the challenge. Hopefully I stay out of the way of those people nicely going thru all the profiles to wiki them up, because they seem to be doing a good job without me goofing it up.

Minor project before then is to mark and clean up the To do list to see what we still need (and what I can quickly come across in Google, or less quickly by asking questions on puroresu boards.) Long term dream project is historical rosters (even a category as unspecifically define as "Stars of the UWA" or "AAA Golden Age (92-96)" would probably be very useful to people. It'd only really take someone who knows the period well to write a list, because I could do the grunt work pretty quickly on my own.

I think I still owe a page better explaining match types as well, which shouldn't take long if I sit down to do it.

New idea: subcategories for Moves. Specifically something for wacky lucha-only submissions

Suggested Move Categories

These are not meant to be exclusive; moves can appear in multiple groups

  • Category:Basic Moves - your no-frills dropkicks, armdrags, hiptoss, splash, senton, and the very basic variations of dives (plancha, pescado, tope). These should be moves which aren't even necessarily includes on profiles, because they're common.
  • Category:Cradles - any type of roll up
  • Category:Submissions - obviously
  • Category:Flying Moves - not sure if that's the best way to say it, but anything jumping/springboard off the ropes
    • Category:Dives - Flying moves to the floor
      • maybe even sub categories for Plancha/Tope?
  • Category:Strikes - ?
  • and there still needs to be something for everything else, but I don't have a good category name for it. I've seem Holds and Manuevers in other places, but that's too broad.

The other idea is, instead of doing categories linking to pages that have single images, maybe we just have pages with galleries of moves and names. Instead of having a page with move names, we have a page with move pictures. I think this would work really well for the Lucha Submissions page (most people will have seen an image of a move and wonder at the name, not the other way around) but may require more effort.

CMLL Lightweight

I think that CMLL change the name of CMLL World Super Lightweight Title to CMLL World Lightweight Title, not includes the "super".

Sometimes they list in that way, sometimes they don't. It's inconsistent. I think they referred to it as Super on last week's CMLL TV when Virus showed off the belt on the way to the ring. --Thecubsfan 16:21, 28 June 2011 (UTC)

Junior Dinamitas

Hi dude, I found this poster of an CWF event in Mexico State. There are listed more members of Hermanos Reyes (Andres, Carmelo, Jesus). Hijo de Carmelo Reyes (I think he is Cien Caras Jr) and Ave Inmortal (son of Universo 2000 [???]). Do you known more about that wrestlers? So the Junior Dinamitas are the next: Cien Caras Jr. (not officially family member), Hijo de Cien Caras (not officially family member, RIP), Hijo de Mascara Año 2000, Mascara Año 2000 Jr, Universo 2000 Jr, El Cuatrero, Sanson, Ave Inmortal.

Nah, that poster was the first I'd heard about Ave Inmortal. They're really turning up from nowhere suddenly. --thecubsfan (talk) 13:51, 30 July 2014 (CDT)

Hair Match

Vendetta Pro Wrestling has results from their August 2, 2014 event in which Chavo Guerrero Jr. defeated Damian 666 to take Bestia 666's hair. La Familia De Tijuana left the arena prior Bestia cut his hair. Do we should add this match to the database as a Lucha De Apuestas to Bestia or Damian and obviously winner Chavo Guerrero Jr.? --Mike09 (talk) 05:00, 06 September 2014 (CDT)

Nah, that's not an official match. Any time they do those post match challenges for one more fall, it lasts 10 seconds, and the rudos run off without living up to the stip, we shouldn't count it. --Thecubsfan (talk) 11:36, 9 September 2014 (CDT)

Cuchillo

Hey dude. I was finding things about Cuchillo. I found a link in which a guy sells masks won by Cuchillo. That page says Cuchillo wrestled around 1971 as El Hijo de Blue Demon, but that data and the masks I can't approve if are correct data.
