Semimain – which was actually the second match live – was serious fantastic and worth going out of you way to see. Even four shows into watching these guys, I still feel like I’m sorting thru which of the locals are good are making this happen and which just are along for the ride, so I may be off and not know it, but everyone in that match seemed great. Centella de Oro feels like the best of the bunch everyone knew their place, knew when to be there, and did their part superb. These matches are fast and dense and heck of a lot fun to watch.
Overall, this was a pretty good show. Opener could’ve been better, and the Averno/Volador trios felt like a MVS filler match, but it have a few big spots (especially the finish.) Women’s trios was well on the good side, as was the main event. That semimain was still just miles ahead of everything else.
I still have no idea if Lluvia is any good and it’s starting to distress me. I need to have form a definite opinion on her, so I can pigeonhole her and never rethink my viewpoint forever and ever. (Also, I’m not supposed to say that outloud.) Slightly less foolling around thought: Dark Angel has look re-vitalized since coming back from winter break. Please please please give her something fun to do, CMLL. (Editors note: hmm, can you tell how long ago I wrote that?)
Give Lluvia some more time. She needs more experience at this level.
@david schroeder: I’m totally not giving up with her. I’m not frustrated with her at all, I’m frustrated with not having seen enough of her yet.
We’ll have to wait to see how Lluvia turns out but my first impressions (4 matches in) are that she’s gonna be one of those chicks perfectly content on getting by with her looks while doing as little as possible in the ring. Hopefully I’m wrong.
