Publication note, November 10: This is the delayed November 9 edition. Its CMLL results cover November 8; the Raw and Puebla previews below describe what was known before the November 9 shows. For the completed Raw report, see the November 10 Morning Bell.

Spoiler warning: This edition covers CMLL’s Sunday, November 8 show at Arena México. Raw, NXT and the AEW matches below are previews. Saturday’s Crown Jewel results appear only as background for the November 9 Raw preview.

Neón, Alexius and Péndulo won CMLL’s Sunday trios tournament, defeating Bárbaro Cavernario, Troglodita and Feroz in the final at Arena México. Their route included a semifinal victory over Volador Jr.’s team, giving the trio two wins in the tournament itself.

Brillante Jr. also left with a singles victory, beating Capitán Suicida with just nine seconds remaining before the lightning match’s time limit. Those are fresh Sunday results ahead of WWE’s November 9 Raw after Crown Jewel in Greenville, South Carolina.

No major Sunday WWE, AEW, NXT, ROH or TNA television card was verified in the sources checked. CMLL supplies the overnight results; the rest of this edition looks ahead to the week. The available CMLL record establishes the winners but leaves several match finishes and segment details unverified, as noted below.

Quick results: Sunday’s reported CMLL card

Fightful’s November 8 results report lists seven results, counting the tournament’s seeding battle royal separately:

  1. Pequeño Pierroth and Mercurio defeated Pequeño Magia and Kaligua.
  2. Los Forajidos, Pólvora, Vaquero Jr. and El Coyote, defeated La Fuerza Poblana, Stigma, Arkalis and Rayo Metálico. The match was listed as best two out of three falls.
  3. Brillante Jr. defeated Capitán Suicida in a lightning match. CMLL’s official recap says nine seconds remained before the time limit.
  4. Averno and Bárbaro Cavernario won the tournament’s seeding battle royal over Volador Jr. and Neón.
  5. Neón, Péndulo and Alexius defeated Los Depredadores, Volador Jr., Kimba and Tenochca, in a semifinal.
  6. Bárbaro Cavernario, Troglodita and Feroz defeated Averno, Espanto Jr. and Carnífice in the other semifinal.
  7. Neón, Alexius and Péndulo defeated Bárbaro Cavernario, Troglodita and Feroz in the final to win the tournament.

Full-card reporting gap: The available record lists all seven reported outcomes, but several match finishes and the full promo and post-match segment record remain unverified. The written reports do not establish every deciding move, fall score, elimination or pinfall recipient. No missing finish is being supplied from guesswork.

Biggest story: Neón’s trio wins through two different teams

CMLL’s official November 8 announcement confirms Neón, Péndulo and Alexius as the tournament winners. The promotion’s own Sunday card had listed four trios. The completed result record breaks the tournament into a seeding battle royal, two semifinals and a final.

That distinction matters when reading the outcome. Averno and Cavernario came through the seeding battle royal, but they did not win the tournament together. Each returned to his own trio for the knockout matches.

Neón’s side first beat Los Depredadores. CMLL’s official semifinal recap identifies Neón’s victory over Volador Jr. as the decisive exchange that sent Neón, Péndulo and Alexius through. It does not provide a named finishing move in the accessible text.

On the other side, Cavernario, Troglodita and Feroz recovered after being caught off guard early, according to CMLL’s recap of their semifinal. They eliminated Averno, Espanto Jr. and Carnífice before losing the final.

Voice analysis: The useful measure of this win is the route. Neón, Alexius and Péndulo beat Volador Jr.’s group and then a different trio led by Cavernario. That gives CMLL two results to build on if it keeps the winning team together. It is a tournament victory, not a reported championship change, and it does not automatically create a title match.

Brillante Jr. beats the clock; the undercard produces clear winners

CMLL’s official report says Brillante Jr. defeated Capitán Suicida with nine seconds remaining before the time limit. The accessible recap does not identify the finishing move.

Los Forajidos won the six-man match over La Fuerza Poblana. Pequeño Pierroth and Mercurio took the opening tag match over Pequeño Magia and Kaligua. The written result record confirms those winners but does not provide enough detail to judge the match layouts or describe the decisive falls.

November 9 Raw preview, preserved from the original edition: new tag champions, unfinished conflicts

Raw was scheduled for 8 p.m. EST on November 9 on Netflix. The Bon Secours Wellness Arena listing confirms Greenville and the November 9 date. WWE’s Raw page confirms the regular Monday broadcast time, but it was still showing November 2 coverage when checked on November 9. No new match card was verified.

The arena advertises Roman Reigns, Oba Femi, Liv Morgan, Penta, Je’Von Evans and other WWE talent. Its championship labels have not all caught up with recent results, so the listing should be used for the advertised roster and venue, not as a current title record.

The biggest clear change for Raw is the World Tag Team Championship. Penta and Evans beat Bron Breakker and Austin Theory at Crown Jewel on Saturday, November 7. WWE’s official report confirms that Evans pinned Theory after the OG Cutter, with Oba Femi having stopped Bronson Reed’s interference.

Voice analysis: The preview’s strongest tag-team question is how The Vision responds to losing. Penta and Evans have the championships, while Femi’s role gives the former champions another conflict to address. A rematch is a reasonable possibility, but it is not listed here as an announced match.

Liv Morgan also has a loss to answer for. Chelsea Green beat her in Saturday’s champion-versus-champion match. Morgan then attacked Green before Tiffany Stratton cashed in. Morgan did not lose the Women’s World Championship in that contest; Stratton took Green’s separate WWE Women’s Championship.

Voice analysis: Morgan’s response can advance Raw’s story without confusing the two women’s titles. The question is how she reacts to the defeat and the events afterward, not whether Stratton now holds Morgan’s belt. A specific segment or cross-brand appearance still needs an announcement.

AEW’s Wednesday special brings Full Gear opponents together

AEW has confirmed a live three-hour Dynamite and Collision special on Wednesday, November 11, at 8 p.m. EST on TBS and HBO Max. The show is at the Maverik Center in West Valley City, Utah, according to AEW’s event listing.

AEW’s official Collision report lists these Wednesday announcements:

  • AEW World Champion Will Ospreay and Kyle Fletcher meet face-to-face.
  • Brodido vs. The New Level.
  • Mercedes Moné and Jay White vs. Jon Moxley and Marina Shafir.

Voice analysis: The mixed tag is the clearest immediate follow-up to Saturday’s confrontation between The Cut, Moné and the Death Riders. It gives those rivals a match before Full Gear. Ospreay and Fletcher’s segment serves a different purpose: their announced face-to-face can sharpen the title rivalry without being described as a match.

Full Gear follows on Saturday, November 14. The Wednesday special is three days before Full Gear. These are upcoming bookings, not additional Sunday results.

The week’s schedule as listed in the November 9 edition

  • Monday, November 9: Raw at 8 p.m. EST on Netflix. The verified starting point is the Greenville event and its advertised talent; the match card remains unconfirmed in the sources checked.
  • Monday, November 9, in Puebla: CMLL lists Los Guerreros Laguneros vs. El Galeón Fantasma and Tessa Blanchard vs. Persephone in a lightning match on its official Lunes Clásico card. The arena start is 8 p.m. local, or 9 p.m. EST. A North American stream for this show was not verified.
  • Tuesday, November 10: NXT at 8 p.m. EST on The CW. The four-match preview, led by the tag title challenge from Dusty Cup winners Noam Dar and Romeo Moreno, is in Sunday’s Late Bell.
  • Wednesday, November 11: AEW’s three-hour Dynamite and Collision special at 8 p.m. EST on TBS and HBO Max.
  • Thursday, November 12: TNA has announced Mustafa Ali vs. Frankie Kazarian and Moose vs. Samuel Shaw. Those matches appear under “Next Week” in TNA’s official November 5 recap.

No fresh Sunday ROH or AAA result was verified for this edition. For the previous Thursday’s full ROH and TNA coverage, see the November 6 Morning Bell.

Your turn

Should CMLL keep Neón, Alexius and Péndulo together after Sunday’s win? Who should get the first chance at Penta and Evans’ tag titles? And does the mixed tag or Ospreay-Fletcher face-to-face make Wednesday’s AEW special the week’s must-watch show?
