This week on Lucha Talk the Trio brings in a special guest in the form of the great Rob Viper to bring in a huge episode of Lucha Talk, running down everything about the show including the Llave de la Gloria finalists, an amazingly confusing Torneo TripleMania, speculation on the main event and even a little bit of insider info on the show and behind the scenes leading up to the big show with incredible detective work done to make an accurate prediction for the main event. Rob sticks around even further to discuss Lucha Underground and the revelation that Rob is a huge Mortal Kombat fan, and together with Dylan they figure out who the Scorpion of Lucha Underground is! Finally the team run through CMLL's announced Aniversario Apuestas match main events in Niebla Roja & Gran Guerrero as well as Zeuxis & Princesa Sugehit as well as a very boring but adequate CMLL Friday show. Throw in a minor La Sombra/Andrade "Cien" Almas update from NXT and you've got one of the best and biggest shows of the year! Talk to everyone about the show or all things Lucha Libre (and wish Rob a safe trip to Reseda for PWG): @DylanZeroSky - @therealfredo - @MICROMANFEVER - @RobViper
Wrestle Kingdom 11 has come and gone, but your usual suspects in Geoffrey Wessel, Steve Cash and Lawrence O'Brien (plus Chris Damasceno handling post-show analysis due to being out of town at time of the recording) break down the action and try to make sense of what was a really, really good show overall alongside the following day's "New Year's Dash!!" and how it'll take us into the new year (plus, they end up doing a quick ROH burial because reasons). And in order to do so, we bring in fellow CMLL expert Cubsfan of luchablog.com/ to break down the Fantasticamania 2017 tour that brings us some interesting match-ups between NJPW and CMLL talents and from there, we move on to talking a bit about the New Beginning tour and cards in both Sapporo and Osaka set-up in place for some big match-ups to come. - You can find Cubsfan on Twitter at @luchablog and at luchablog.com/ alongside his "Como Estaz" podcast with RobViper at http://www.thecubsfan.com/cmll/tag/como-estaz/ As always, please feel free to leave us some feedback by checking us out at our blog at http://strongstylestory.tumblr.com/, by going over to our Twitter: @StrongStylStory or even shooting us an e-mail at strongstylestory@gmail.com along with checking us out on iTunes (to which we definitely encourage leaving a review, giving us stars, etc, etc).

Dylan, Raul, & Fredo are back for episode tres of Lucha Talk, breaking down the Alberto El Patrón-less Heroes Inmortales results, including Dylan's misfire on Australian Suicide and how everyone else was right. From there we break down a so-so Lucha Underground with the highlight to one host being Dario Cueto's hug with Cortez Castro. CMLL comes up with the excellent rivalry between Volador Jr. & Cavernario and then a surprising twist with a breakdown of Niebla Roja, old En Busca de un Idolo episodes and how much we miss it, and many CMLL midcarders who have lost motivation. The show closes out with talk of Elite, Shocker's announcing abilities as well as his car and finally AAA Star Battle in Japan with Odo featuring a Triple Threat and a tag match that should be must watch. Not to mention in Lucha Libre outside of México, Dragon Lee faces Kamaitachi in ROH in a great match that both Dylan and Raul saw and break down to cap off a loaded and at times strange edition of the show, that could only end with a RobViper shoutout.
In this episode Swift catches up on the Lucha Libre Elite promotion's TV for June to current. He isn't a fan of the endless Liga Elite 2016 tournament, but loves the matches coming out of it.

In this special edition - and biggest edition yet - of the Strong Style Story Podcast, the usual suspects of Geoffrey Wessel, Chris Damasceno and Steve Cash are reunited and this time around, they have company.

From that point, all things Super J Cup are covered here, from all of its participants, to predictions of the first round, eventual winners, the "Hayabusa Award" for who we think we'll be the breakout star of the tournament and of course, who we would've much rather seen in the tournament in place of one of the current contestants in it.
