9 thoughts to “2009 Tapatias Discussion: Tecnico, Female”

  1. Best Tecnico: My choice is Mesias. He seems to have found his niche now and the fans are really into him. Unlike a lot of tecnicos, he’s stayed that way all year. Honorable mention to Volador Jr. and Parka.

    Best Female: It’s still Fabi Apache and it’s not even close. I like Sexy Star but she’s not as good as Fabi. The closest luchadoras are probably Dark Angel, Marcela and Ampola but they are stuck with those crappy new girls.

  2. Best Tecnico-Mistico.There was tecnicos elsewhere 2009, El Mesias, Volador Jr, La Sombra, etc.. However no one (in my opinion) could outshine Mistico in 2009. Judging by what has already occured in 2010, Mistico maybe a frontrunner for Best Rudo of the Year. But this year, Mistico wins this hands down.

  3. Tecnico: La Parka. the fans were behind him all year. has also had good matches

    Female: sexi star. she really improved and made an excellent rudo in her feud. has become into a good worker and there are big things ahead of her

  4. Technico: Aero Star. He’s yet to have a real breakout year but I have a feeling that if he’s still healthy next year, all you guys will be voting for him then. He gets better each time I see him.

    Female: Faby Apache

  5. Mistico seems like a lock for tecnico. This could be (should be?) the end of his five year run in the category though. His feud with Casas defined CMLL this year. In terms of the next generation, I’ll be considering Hijo del Fantasma, and Sombra as well. Both had some strong matches this year and moved up the card a bit over previous years. IWRG seemed short on strong tecnicos (not that Jack doesn’t deserve a vote or two), and I don’t think anyone in AAA was strong enough over the course of the year to get my votes.

    For Luchadoras, I’ll probably wind up going with Fabi again this year, but will be considering Sexi Star who I thought was strong enough in their feud to warrant consideration. Marcela and Amapola both had strong years again despite have lackluster opponents to work with. I love Dark Angel, but she wasn’t around quite enough to warrant consideration

  6. I’ll have to pass on the females, but my favourite technico was Valiente. Freelance, when he wasn’t injured, was up there with Valiente and Centella de Oro would round out my top three.

  7. Best female – Fabi Apache was great all-around. In-ring, promos, and relationship advice. Amapola and Marcela were consistently good, but again CMLL just kept throwing in more women and most weren’t really that good. Sexy Star was a fun heel, but in the ring, ugh….At least she’s good to look at, I guess. I thought Cinthia did well, but again, she’s in the group that got less air time in AAA, when AAA started focusing on a smaller group of wrestlers due to their storylines.

    Princesa Blanca was ok early in the year. I consider her in the Sexy Star category of luchadora. Good character, not so good worker.

    Best Tecnico…MISTICO! WOOO!!!!! (sorry had to do this for OJ!). Centella de Oro was awesome in Puebla. Thought La Sombra and Volador Jr. were good. Freelance definitely. Mascarita Dorada. El Mesias, Fabi Apache were the only AAA tecnicos I liked. Oh wait…Pimpinela Escarlata was great. Really sad AAA cut that angle because I think there was a lot they could have done with it. At the same time, I would have worried what they would have done had they continued the angle given the level of homophobia in pro wrestling.

    Finally, STRONGMAN~!!! ARGH! Take it away, Jon…
