CMLL Guerreros del Ring on 52MX: 2013-03-02

recap

taped 2013-02-24 @ Arena Coliseo

what was Dalys’ plan here?

Dalis la Caribeña, Dark Angel, Estrellita vs Amapola, Princesa Blanca, Princesa Sugheit: another in the ending trios matches for this feud. Like so many others, not really that good or interesting. I am so ready for Dos Leyendas, just so this feud might come to some conclusion. There are other issues here, but I’d love to see a different match.

 

Namajague powerbomb

Fuego, Máximo, Stuka Jr. vs Namajague, Niebla Roja, Shigeo Okumura: this was a much better preview for the match, with the rudos coming off strong and a lot of good action both taking place here and teased for next week. The Niebla Roja/Maximo segments were good as well. I’m writing this before the match, so this sentence may be followed by an updated line about how dumb I am, but the martinete teases seemed to set up something for their title match.

 

don’t try this at home.

Atlantis, La Sombra, Mistico vs Averno, Rey Escorpión, Volador Jr.: less a Místico showcase than you’d figure, though he was still the one getting the neat submission at the end. This was more about him being one of the top guys rather than a top guy. They really ought to have him do the Mística a lot in hopes that people get over it, or not do it at all. Trying and failing to get it is just a spot to get Místico booed. Rudos looked good making Místico look good.
