Update on flu epidemic and wrestling shows this weekend


Attention: open in a new window. PDFPrint
By Steve Sims

All CMLL Mexico City shows (Arena Mexico, Arena Coliseo, and small Sunday shows) are canceled from now through at least Tuesday, May 5, 2009, as part of an all-public-events cancellation for the next ten days, starting today, ordered by the "Mayor" of Mexico City and as suggested the DF and Federal governments.

Similarly, all IWRG shows in Nacaulpan and Xochimilko are cancelled until at least Thursday, May 7, 2009.
 
CMLL is to decide shortly (early this week) whether to try to tape TV elsewhere or basically just give the talent a 10-day vacation.  As of now, the CMLL shows tomorrow in Guadalajara, Monday in Puebla, and Tuesday in Guadlajara are still on, and they already have cameras and capacity to tape in Puebla and in Guadalajara as well if they decide to go that route.  The Mexican soccer league game in Guadalajara tonight is still being played, so that city does not seem to have been hit yet by the flu panic.
 
AAA's next TV is April 30 in Agauscalientes and that event is also still on.
