Satanico’s so much more useful as a rudo, I have no idea what took so long to get him back there. Wasn’t much to say for him here.
While I’m unfairly looking in hindsight, CMLL probably would’ve been better off never signing Fabian and giving Alan Stone the gimmick and a push. He’s just doing the rudo version of it in AAA, and he’s so much better (though everyone’s at least somewhat better.)
I have no good justification for believing this, but I’m sure Loco Max has wrestled as Spider-Man on random DF spot shows. He’d be Spider-Man on these shows if they let him, even though it makes no sense for a supposed rudo guy to be dressing up like a superhero. I think it’s best we don’t try to figure out what Loco Max is thinking at any time.
Warrior vs Mistico is the same Warrior vs Mistico match they’ve done many many times. It seemed fresher because I hadn’t seen it for a while, but I think I can call the match in my sleep at this point. Only the finish changes, and it’s not as though they were even polishing the same sequences.
Next episode is the Mistico vs Warrior match that is a strong candidate for my MOTY right now. Curious to see what you’ll think about it, especially since I thought the same way you did going in…

… and was pleasantly surprised.
