AAA #849 (09/06)

taped 08/08, aired 09/06

I watched Alas de Oro at least 4 times due to various boring reasons. It’s not a match you need to watch four times and even one was plenty. It’s disappointing compared to last year – there was no big dive train spot, there was not a lot of time before the eliminations, and the n hey were as rapid fire as possible. The match didn’t have any time to get anyone over except the finalists, and even that didn’t work so well when Aerostar blew his finish.

I’m sure they were heading to Jack/Aerostar even if Aerostar hits his move (I think Jack kicked out and has been taught to not end matches on blown moves, but it might have been part of the angle), but at least they used the controversy instead of pretending it didn’t happen.

5 matches in 90 minutes, all clipped up more than even usual AAA standards, was really absurd. The only match that had an any storyline impact was the minis tournament, Alas de Oro, and the main event (presumably, they ran the mystery man angle with a plan to resolve at one point, though they’ve clearly forgotten it now. They should’ve just saved the others for another week instead of repeating Alas de Oro.

One thought to “AAA #849 (09/06)”

  1. 32 minutes of wrestling in a show with 6 matches? Really?

    That almost contends with those classic 1 hour CMLL shows from 2003 that would contain MAYBE 18 minutes of wrestling.
